Alan Carr's 'Life's a Beach'

Comedian Rhys James joins Captain Alan this week! Rhys reveals why he ditched a life-changing expedition to Borneo for a lads' holiday in Kavos, shares the bizarre story of getting lost in Sri Lanka with a Sherpa who didn't know the way, and relives a truly horrific bout of Montezuma's Revenge in Mexico. Plus, there's holiday heartbreak, Edinburgh Fringe chaos, family trips to Devon, dodgy mini-bars, dream destinations and one of the strangest travel stories we've ever heard. Fasten your seatbelts...

Adam Lambert joins Alan Carr for a very glamorous flight!

Adam talks holidays with his family, touring the world with Queen, celebrity encounters on planes, his favourite hotel in Venice, holiday romances, his dream destination and why his perfect holiday involves a beach, a piña colada and eating mangoes.

Plus, Adam chats about his brand-new sixth solo album ADAM, his move from LA to New York, and what inspired the darker, heavier sound of the record.

And yes… there’s a little “Cup My Banana” thrown in for good measure. 😂
