“I remember Jodie walking in for her first day. She was a little shy. It’s hard to come into a situation where people are already friends – and everyone thought John and I were these tough, scary New York kids. But we stayed in the same hotel and our families hit it off. We’d be driven around and go for dinner. She liked doing goofy things. I think we ended up kissing. We made out at the Holiday Inn in Slough.”
