Transvestite Martine Rose, representing "Repartee magazine" with his girlfriend Cathy, was happy with this appearance, though his relationship with Cathy didn't last. On Martine's personal website he recalled:
"Over a period of a few years at the old place and the new, Cathy and I appeared on several television shows. The first was in 1992 when we appeared on the James Whale Show on Yorkshire Television. He had a reputation of being tough on his guests but he was good with us and I think it went down well. Thereafter I appeared on several shows, sometimes with Cathy and later by myself.
[...] I split with Cathy in 1994. The reasons were complex but with the pressure of work producing Repartee I felt I could no longer cope with Cathy's ongoing psychotic problems. Outsiders would be totally unaware that there were these problems and I had done my best to try to help Cathy (she had said I'd helped her more than any psychiatrist had ever done)."
