"I've gotta admit, it was overwhelming at the very, very start because again, one minute you're around no one and then there's a crew of a hundred people and you're like, 'Oh my gosh'. It's been an adventure, but brilliant!"
Is Don’t Rock The Boat following social distancing?
The whole team had to take regular coronavirus tests, but they created a ‘bubble’ together so they didn’t have to social distance.
AJ explained: "We created our own bubble, so the weird thing wasn't our interactions, because we created our own bubble, so we were interacting, touching, all of that jazz – so that was great!
"What was weird was having a swab up my nose every two days because I was Covid tested on the regular, as was everyone else. So that was the bizarre thing!"
