Alan Carr Turns 50: Kylie, Port & Pay Pig Revelations

Bottoms Up! With Alan Carr and Lee Peart

Show Notes

This week on Bottoms Up! Alan Carr and Lee Peart are celebrating Alan’s big birthday as he turns 50. The boys raise a glass of port and pair it with some birthday shortbread as they catch up on the week.

Lee reveals the painful story of the time he put his back out attempting the iconic Dirty Dancing lift at a wedding, while Alan discovers the very important difference between an osteopath and a psychopath…

Plus, Kylie’s new Netflix series has Alan declaring his love for the Princess of Pop - and he reveals the incredible gifts she’s been sending him for years. But is Kylie actually a secret… pay pig?! Lee investigates.

And joining the boys is TV chef, author and social media star John Gregory-Smith (@johngs), who pairs his favourite Middle Eastern dishes with the wines that bring them to life.
