A. J. Odudu : (4)

" When I was 10 years old, there was a competition on the CBBC page on Teletext to be on a game show called ‘Insides Out,’ and the winner would get a backstage pass to the BBC. And I won! " - A. J. Odudu

" The biggest obstacle when I was younger was geographical. I was living in Blackburn and the ITV and BBC studios were in London, and I thought: ‘How do I get there? I need to be there.’ " - A. J. Odudu

" In London everyone lives in small spaces so I found living in flatshares easy. I’ve never been bothered about privacy. If I’m home alone I feel a bit weird, I want people to come round. " - A. J. Odudu

" Foods with a high-water content like cucumber, tomatoes and melon, getting plenty of sleep and learning not to sweat the small stuff to avoid stress were all important in keeping my skin calm. " - A. J. Odudu
