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. Drink responsibly, and as always… Bottoms Up! Bottoms Up! With Alan Carr and Lee Peart is a Platform Media production.
