Alan's Celebrity Fat Club Offer, Lee's Big Brother Blunder & The Celebrity Traitors
This week, it’s a very special 50th episode of Bottoms Up! as Alan and Lee raise a glass to celebrate, reminiscing about some of their favourite guests, funniest moments and biggest surprises from the series so far. The boys also share stories of times they’ve been well and truly humbled. Lee suffered a rather embarrassing case of mistaken identity recently while appearing on a TV show, and Alan reveals he was once offered a rather unexpected showbiz booking: Celebrity Fat Club in Australia! Elsewhere, they discuss the rise of immersive experiences, who they think should be the next James Bond, and give their verdict on the latest series of The Celebrity Traitors. Plus, the boys debate whether they'd ever appear on Naked Attraction, before Lee tells Alan about the time he went head-to-head with a rat that came up through his toilet… Chapters: 00:00 - Coming Up 00:32 - Bottoms Up!

Hangover Hacks, Green Wine & Britain's Best Bottles!
This week on Bottoms Up! Alan’s brought the welcome drink for a reluctant Lee as he surprises him with a fluorescent green, sour apple-flavoured wine to celebrate Bonfire Night. The boys swap their favourite hangover hacks, from Lee’s electrolytes and beefy Hula Hoops to Alan’s chicken noodle soup and his tried-and-tested combination of a tequila shot and Haribo Tangfastics. Don’t knock it until you’ve tried it! This week’s dilemma sees the boys choosing their perfect in-flight wine ahead of their trip to South Africa. Thanks to our friends at Virgin Atlantic, the boys are off to Franschhoek for a spot of very important ‘work’. Vineyards to visit. Wines to taste. But before they take off, there’s the small matter of getting acquainted with a few of the wines they’ll find in Upper Class. Best get cracking, boys. Dilemma Wines featured: Hambledon Classic Cuvée English SparklingMont Rochelle ‘Little Rock Rouge’Recital Gavoty And if you fancy a little Upper Class treatment yourself? Come on in.

This week on Bottoms Up! Alan and Lee kick things off with a decadent, bubblegum-flavoured vodka. But will Alan be able to stomach a drink that reminds him of supermarket own-brand bubble bath?

Olivier Award-winning West End and Broadway star Layton Williams (@laytonwilliams) joins the boys for a drink to talk all things Titanique, Billy Elliot and his brand-new one-man show, Layton Live. Over some very dirty martinis, Layton spills the tea on winning awards, making his Broadway debut, theatre-going etiquette, dealing with people asking for free tickets, the new series of Strictly Come Dancing and performing for one of his all-time idols: RuPaul.

Alan's Stool Sample Saga, Cheese & Wine Pairings and Red Wine & Cola?!
This week on Bottoms Up! Alan and Lee kick things off with a red wine and cola cocktail, but Alan is dubious.

The boys discuss Alan's time on the new series of The Masked Singer, baffling supermarket slogans, and the burning question: how exactly did Alan end up posting a stool sample through the door of a travel agent?!

The Chase, Solo Tours & Sustainable Wine
This week on Bottoms Up! Alan and Lee are back at Vagabond Urban Winery, where they’re joined by Aleesha Hansel to explore wines that are good for the world.

Catch Lee on tour from April - tickets available from leepeart.net/tour. Alan’s been reading a book about stocks and shares, and it’s left him clueless about some of life’s biggest questions – from finances and VAT to, most importantly, ITV’s The Chase. Can Lee explain the rules so Alan can finally relax and enjoy his favourite tea-time quiz show? Wine expert Aleesha (@aleeshahansel) has brought along a selection of wines with a feel-good factor - from canned wine and wine in cardboard bottles to a bottle you can actually post back once you’ve finished drinking it.

Alan's Ouija Board Outing, NTAs & Wine Making
This week on Bottoms Up! Alan and Lee head to Vagabond Urban Winery in Surrey Quays to get stuck into some actual wine making - and things get very messy. Alan fills Lee in on the NTAs, where he picked up the Special Recognition Award, complete with a surprise musical tribute from Paloma Faith, Amanda Holden and… Kate Garraway. Over an Autumnal Aperol Spritz, Lee reveals the slightly clichéd voiceover roles he’s always being booked for, Alan recalls the time a Ouija board accidentally outed him, and Lee tells the story of visiting a particularly aggressive clairvoyant after a brutal break-up. Drag and wine duo Beth Brickenden and Vanity Von Glow join the boys for some serious wine tasting… and some decidedly less serious wine making, as Alan and Lee get elbow-deep in fermenting grapes and discover exactly what goes on inside an urban winery.

But can they really tell the difference between a £22 bottle of wine and one costing just £6? Elsewhere, the boys reminisce about their childhood crushes. Alan reveals he was once enamoured with the Jack of Clubs on a lonely day in Northampton, while Lee had a thing for Hercules… but only once he’d beefed up.
