Bottoms Up! With Alan Carr and Lee Peart

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.

This week on Bottoms Up!

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.

Plus, wine communicator Katie Lawton joins the boys to settle an important debate: which gives you more bang for your buck – cava or prosecco?

This week on Bottoms Up! Alan Carr and Lee Peart head to Wine School at the WSET School, where they're put to the test to find out whether they've actually learned anything so far...

Elsewhere, Lee's still living with Alan, and they're still fighting over the recycling. Lee's also been using Alan's posh candles, while some late-night smoke alarm drama has left them both exhausted.

With the boys back at school, the pair reminisce about their own school days – from Alan befriending the dinner ladies, Lee getting a bit too familiar with his teachers and both revealing their first crushes.

Then, wine expert and teacher Shane Jones shows the boys how to taste wine properly, including the all-important slurping technique, before introducing them to something they've never encountered before... a spittoon.

This week on Bottoms Up! Alan Carr and Lee Peart return to Pied à Terre in Central London, where they get off to a messy start…

Lee’s got a few things he needs to get off his chest, while Alan’s more concerned about what’s on his head. They’re chatting musicals, discussing horoscopes and inventing new cocktails.

Plus wine expert and author of The Alcorithm Rob Buckhaven joins the boys for a gadget special, sharing tips and hacks to keep the wine flowing (with mixed results). It’s fair to say Lee’s a fan of gadgets, but Alan is not quite so easily impressed..!

This week on Bottoms Up!

Alan and Lee head to Pied à Terre in Central London - a Michelin-starred restaurant where they’re guaranteed to bring the tone down in true Bottoms Up! style.

Big news this week: Lee has moved in with Alan… much to Alan’s dismay, as Lee has wasted no time making himself at home. Can their friendship survive the recycling rules, dishwasher etiquette, and the all-important question of where the Fairy Liquid actually lives?

It’s also been Alan’s big birthday, and Lee has pulled off a surprise 50th party. What was the ruse to get Alan there, and which A-lister got up to sing him happy birthday?

Plus, restaurant owner and viral sensation David Moore joins the boys for a very Bottoms Up! experiment: pairing fast food with fine wine. Will they discover the perfect wine to go with a Greggs sausage roll?
