The TV presenter is currently adhering to social distancing measures by remaining behind closed doors with screenwriter wife Jane Goldman and his father-in-law at their sprawling north London home.
But he gave the Loose Women girls a look into the room he has lovingly personalised to reflect his life-long interest in comics, cult films, television, games and pulp fiction literature while appearing from home on Thursday’s show.

The presenter was on the show to discuss the difficulties faced by Brits as they continue to abide by strict lockdown laws in the fight against coronavirus Covid-19.
But he admitted social distancing has had a paradoxical affect on his relationship with children Betty, 28, Harvey, 26, Honey, 23 – because he sees them more than ever, despite all three living away from home.
He told the panel: ‘I see them more than I need to to be honest. I’m online all the time. We’re probably, in a way, as a family, spending more time together than not actually being physically together than ever before.

‘I know my wife misses the physical contact – she really wants to hug them, she misses that side of it all, but I think overall we just count our blessings. None of them are sick, they’re all kind of OK and they’re all with someone.’
He added: ‘My son is with his girlfriend, they’ve lived together for years. My daughter, my eldest one’s with her girlfriend, they don’t live together but they’ve been together for years.
‘And my youngest daughter, she’s not in a relationship but she’s with her flatmate and they’ve got their cat and they’re perfectly happy, so they’ve all got company, and none of them have this dreadful illness so we all feel very blessed.’
