Neil Harray raises his eyebrows when I ask him what Twilight is.
But without a moment's hesitation, he replies: "It's that vampire sensation that's hooked teens through to 30-year-olds."
I ask him a few other tough "teen" current affairs questions and he answers all perfectly but gets stuck on what GHDs are (hair straighteners), and who American songstress Taylor Swift is.
