Broadcasting icon Tim Lovejoy has reflected on the time the One Direction stars called him a “legend” on the latest episode of the Soccer AZ podcast.
Lovejoy first met the boy band when they appeared as guests on ITV’s This Morning as their fame continued to grow.
Highlighting the success of the iconic Soccer AM, Lovejoy revealed that the band had begged him to take a selfie.
“They saw me and ran up and said ‘can I take a selfie, can I take a selfie, Soccer AM legend, legend, legend,'” Lovejoy said.
Listen to Soccer AZ:
“It’s funny that my memory is coming back, now I’d probably be ignored on the street.”
Each weekly episode of the podcast will be alphabet-driven and will include a variety of football-inspired challenges as dictated by the letter of the week, with a quiz built into each adventure. This week, C is for Celebrations.
