Amanda Holden recalls run-in with ‘mean’ authorities while filming with Alan Carr | Celebrity News | Showbiz & TV

Alan Carr, 46, joined Amanda Holden, 51, on her radio show Heart Breakfast on Friday morning. The comedian ousted his new co-star, recalling some of their filming antics as he noted: “No one’s really talked about you getting arrested.”

The unlikely duo are starring in a new show, Amanda & Alan’s Italian Job, which sees the pair delving into home renovation work.

While promoting the show on the Heart Breakfast show with Amanda and co-host Jamie Theakston, Alan shocked listeners.

During the live interview, Alan casually noted that no one had mentioned Amanda’s arrest while filming.

A shocked Jamie pressed the pair for more information with a startled: “What?”

He recalled what she told the officer: “Hey that’s a lovely buckle on your trousers!’”

Amanda clarified that she actually said: “I love your belt buckle!”

Alan also revealed the pair had been told to avoid explaining the incident too much.

He said: “I’m saying we should mention it, they say ‘oh hold it back because it is so funny.’”

DONT MISS: 

The new show was created after Amanda purchased two derelict apartments in Sicily for just €1 (£0.88) each.

This practice started in 2019 when a rural Sicilian town, Sambuca, began selling abandoned homes for just €1 in an effort to revive its declining population.

In April 2021, the Sicilian town Castiglione di Sicilia followed suit, offering 900 abandoned houses at this low price in order to bring life back to the town on the slopes of Mount Etna.

While most of the homes are in rough condition, Amanda is one of many seemingly up for the challenge of renovating a property in the picturesque landscape.
