How many have you got, and are you all [presenters] having a bobble hat off?"Katherine admitted: "Well I went to PyeongChang four years ago with two bobble hats, and that was a mistake. Because it turns out you're on TV every single day and you want a bit of variety!"She went on to explain: "So I've brought seven bobble hats with me out to Beijing.
