Bottoms Up! With Alan Carr and Lee Peart

This week on Bottoms Up!, Alan and Lee are joined by fashion icon, pop star and all-round national treasure Frankie Bridge for our long-awaited fashion episode.

Alan hits the runway to showcase his favourite wine accessories and statement pieces - including a beach bag that doubles as a wine cooler and a bra that’s perfect for sneaking a drink into your favourite festival.

The trio taste a Côtes de Provence from a vineyard owned by Chanel, before pouring it from a very special decanter…

They chat fashion shows, hangovers, what’s hot this summer, Frankie’s shifts down The Sugar Hut and her former life as a pop star. And, of course, Lee asks the question that’s been on everyone’s lips… will The Saturdays ever reunite?

This week on Bottoms Up!, Alan and Lee are joined by TV icon Holly Willoughby for a glass of wine, a gossip and plenty of laughs.

Holly opens up about life after daytime TV, her exciting new project Together, and why she wants everyone to feel like they’ve got a seat at the table. She also reveals what happened when she swapped early mornings for a slower pace of life - and whether a slot on Strictly could ever be on the cards.

Along the way, the trio sip - and sample - tequila, Holly mixes the perfect vodka martini she was taught to make by the one and only Stanley Tucci, and Alan, Lee and Holly go head-to-head in a game...

Elsewhere, Alan reveals how he accidentally went viral at a gay day rave after "just popping in after work”, and Holly admits just how lazy she became after stepping away from daytime TV.

Plus, Holly and Alan face off in Surprise SurPRICE, a blind wine tasting to find out whose palate is premium - and whose belongs in the bargain bin.

This week on Bottoms Up! Alan and Lee are back at The Gore Hotel, sipping their signature cocktail from the iconic Bar 190, where The Rolling Stones famously hosted some of their wildest parties.

With a heatwave in full swing, the boys are heading to see short-shorts superstar Harry Styles. But just how short is too short? Long, short or downright slutty?

After weeks of living under the same roof, Lee has finally moved out of Alan's house. Faced with an empty flat containing little more than a bed, can Alan help Lee figure out his interior design style?

Plus, wine writer Sunny Hodge (@sunnyhodgewine) joins the boys to chat about his book, The Cynic's Guide to Wine. He explains why wine doesn’t actually taste like grapes and introduces Alan and Lee to bottles from China, the Czech Republic and Georgia, proving there’s a whole world of wine beyond the supermarket shelf.

Drinks featured:

The Clover Club - Bar 190's Signature Cocktail

Punk Pet Nat - a biodynamic, sparkling Solaris from the Czech Republic

Dove White - a blend of Italoriesling from China

Rachuli Mtsvane - an orange wine from Georgia

This week on Bottoms Up! Alan and Lee are joined by comedian, podcaster and soon-to-be Celebrity Traitors star Joanne McNally.

Joanne shares her love of wine with the boys, from her unapologetically cheap palate and wine-inspired stand-up tours to her ambition to launch her own wine range... infused with collagen.

Recorded at The Gore in South Kensington – home to the iconic Judy Garland Suite, complete with ruby slippers – the trio enjoy one of London's finest afternoon teas, perfectly paired with English sparkling wine.

Along the way they chat Negronis, stand-up comedy, world tours, podcasting, breaking records, BuzzBallz, the dark web, and Joanne's upcoming appearance on The Celebrity Traitors.

You can catch Joanne on Unacceptable on TLC, and on tour with Pinotphile – tickets are on sale now.

With Wimbledon wrapped up, Alan Carr and Lee Peart celebrate with a Pimms and discuss their love - or lack thereof - for tennis. Is it just a poor man's Swingball..?

Lee shares his recipe for a Turbo Pimms, while Alan reveals his infamous Power Shandy – the concoction that ended with him vomiting into a load of freshly washed clothes… which promptly had to go straight back in the machine.

Elsewhere, the boys compare zodiac signs to see if they're astrologically compatible, Lee gets emotional over a Nescafé advert from yesteryear, and Alan reveals the questionable combination he recently discovered: red wine and Skittles.
