Morrissey has appeared on Victoria Wood's Nice Cup Of Tea.
The programme, which follows the comedienne as she explores the British fascination with tea, was broadcast last night on BBC One.
The interview with Morrissey took place last year in New York. The pair share a pot of Ceylon tea from Morrissey's favourite teapot - bought in Rome. "I'm a tea-aholic," admits Morrissey. "As soon as I wake up, I must have tea."

Nile Rodgers has spoken about working on Daft Punk's new album Random Access Memories.
Speaking to Vice as part of their Creators Project series, Rodgers says that "Ninety percent if not higher of all recordings that I've ever made in my life have been the result of a very impromptu initial meeting that feels so natural and so organic that you have to take it to the next level. They make you up your game, even if your game is pretty good."
A musical production based on Jeff Buckley is set to open this autumn at The Old Globe in San Diego.
The Last Goodbye - named after one of Buckley's most popular songs – has been conceived and adapted by Michael Kimmel and retells the story of Romeo And Juliet using songs by the late singer.
Billboard reports that the musical will likely end up on Broadway in New York, given the high profile producers attached to the project - Hal Luftig ['Kinky Boots'] and Ruth and Steve Hendel ['Fela!'].
Writer-director Randall Miller and screenwriter Jody Savin have acquired the rights to My Cross To Bear, Gregg Allman's best-selling memoir, which was published last May (2012). Allman and his manager Michael Lehman will serve as executive producers on the film adaptation.

Guitarist Bernie Leadon is reportedly to rejoin The Eagles for their upcoming History Of The Eagles tour.
Rolling Stone reports comments made by current Eagles guitarist Joe Walsh in Billboard. "Bernie's brilliant," says Walsh. "I never really got a chance to play with him, but we've been in contact. We see him from time to time, and I'm really glad he's coming because it's going to take the show up a notch, and I'm really looking forward to playing with him, finally."
A momentous week, one way or another, though I can’t help wishing the resonant and thought-through fury of “Tramp The Dirt Down” was heading into the Top Ten instead of “Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead”.
