Alan’s BAFTA Nominations, Red Carpet Beef & Supermarket Wine Secrets
Bottoms Up! With Alan Carr and Lee PeartShow Notes
This week on Bottoms Up! Alan’s back from Suffolk with a bottle of gin… but it doesn’t exactly agree with him. What happens to Alan when he has too much?
Lee’s been busy hitting not one, but two red carpets, rubbing shoulders with the A-list - but which guest at the Kinky Boots Gala has he got serious beef with? With Alan also up for two BAFTAs, the boys dive into red carpet etiquette, dodgy photos, and what it’s really like facing the paps.
Wine expert and best-selling author Helen McGinn (@knackeredmother) joins the boys to reveal the best supermarket wines you should actually be buying - and the everyday snacks that pair perfectly with them.
Her new book The Supermarket Wine Guide is out May 21st and available to pre-order now.
