Bottoms Up

“It’s not like a lads, lads, lads podcast this, is it?” says Alan Carr in the first of his new wine show with comedian pal Lee Peart. There are tastings, reader dilemmas and a Q&A with wine expert Tom Gilbey. The real highlight is the pair’s banter. Carr’s response when Peart says he wants to get him “back on white” so he gets to have his favourite type of wine when they share a bottle? “You could have told me this off camera … I didn’t know this was Relate!” Alexi Duggins
