Fellow panelist Meshel Laurie tried to press for more details, asking: 'Does she ride ponies or anything weird like that?'
This time Sarah took it upon herself to offer a vague answer, saying: 'I hope we get some tea, or some biscuits, or something like that.'
During the interview, Sarah was asked how her husband, Santtu Seppälä, felt about her spending so much time with her co-star.

Sarah spent her honeymoon in Australia after marrying the stock analyst, and she joked that she was on her 'second honeymoon' with Rick.
She said: 'We've been honeymooning it up. We just came from Sydney this morning. We've been at the Opera House, we went on a boat ride - don't tell me husband.'
Host Waleed Aly then asked the 44-year-old if Santtu is ok with the trip, which has seen Sarah buy an unusual gift for her co-star.
'He's fine. He's good about it. I just have to bring him home those kangaroo balls that I bought you (Rick). It's all good as long as he gets the same gifts,' joked the Connecticut native.
