They discuss wedding dress fittings, cats, sorbet relationships, sexual explosions, Dawn French's matchmaking skills and sex in toilets, hot tubs and swimming pools. Rosie also has a lightbulb moment about why she's so fascinated by talking about breakups - if you document a relationship's ending, you acknowledge that it existed in the first place.
