Jack Dee: Last One Laughing, Alan's Awkward Kiss & Halloween

This week on Bottoms Up! It’s Halloween and our special guest Jack Dee gets a fright when he discovers Alan and Lee dressed as their favourite wicked witches…

Jack joins the boys to talk about his brand-new stand-up tour, the latest series of Last One Laughing: Halloween and his trip to the Northern Lights with Alan (a phenomenon he denies even exists). Plus, a tasting menu of Jack’s Best Bitters – but will the boys find a bitter they can actually stomach?

Elsewhere, Alan reveals the last time he kissed a woman – with a mouthful of Bombay Mix – while Jack shares his secrets to packing enough pants for life on the road. The boys also revisit their favourite Halloween looks, from Queen Elizabeth to Gemma Collins and Princess Diana…

And in this week's dilemma, Frankie needs help deciding where to head next, so we brought the Virgin Atlantic Upper Class wine list: Napa Valley, Franschhoek and one a little closer to home. Before long, the boys are deep in conversation about an overseas ‘work’ trip. Strictly for research, of course.

Dilemma Wines featured:

Pavette Zinfandel (Napa Valley, USA)

Seasalter Sauvignon Blanc (Western Cape, South Africa)

Chapel Down English Rosé (Kent, UK)
