Speaking on the Dish podcast, Moffatt said: “One of my favourite buffet snacks is a scotch egg – but a scotch egg with chocolate spread.
“I know, that does sound like a pregnancy craving.
“It’s like, the savoury and sweet combo.
“Basically, what happened is – I sound like I’m just drunk the whole time – but I’d come in [drunk] and all we had in the fridge was scotch eggs.

“I thought ‘I can’t have them dry, that’s dirty’. So we had chocolate spread. It was lovely.
“I remember I was sat watching [sitcom] Bottom on the telly in just my pants, eating scotch eggs and chocolate spread.
“Me mum came in and went ‘this is why you haven’t got a boyfriend’. I was like, ‘actually, yeah, you’re right’.
“It was one of those realisation moments.
