"And now you're like on a presidential power walk and I was like ‘what do you do on this walk?’ and he's like ‘you just act like you’re thinking of serious things’"
Trevor says being introduced to MPs was “one of the most surreal moments”.
"I was sitting there in the moment like ‘Where is my history teacher now?’”
