During her breakfast show with co-host Jamie Theakston, Amanda made one listener won a million pounds, after competing against nine finalists in the biggest on-air game show on British radio.

It comes as Amanda and Alan Carr are set to make a tidy profit from their Spanish TV renovation project.

The pair snapped up a crumbling 100-year-old townhouse in Granada for €65,000 (£55,000), transforming it into a stunning holiday home on their hit BBC show Amanda and Alan’s Spanish Job. 

They later listed it on Rightmove through Granada Village & Country with an asking price of €245,000 (£208,335).

After just over a month on the market, the Spanish townhouse appears to have found a buyer, as it’s now marked as ‘under offer’.

However, Amanda and Alan won’t be keeping any profit as all proceeds from the sale will go to Comic Relief and Children in Need.

According to Manchester Evening News, a total of 35 offers were made for the property from buyers all over the world.

Ian Rutter, director of Granada Village & Country, told the publication: ‘We invited offers over €245,000 for the property, allowing demand to settle the final value of the house.

‘We always knew that the purchase price would be above market value, and it was clear that many of the potential buyers were very keen to support the two charities that will benefit from the proceeds of the sale.

‘Some of the offers were very generous, but we looked at a number of factors when putting together a shortlist for the vendors.’

Amanda and comedian Alan painstakingly transformed the property with a Moorish-themed interior design – even hand picking the perfect kitchen tiles from the Bert & May factory in nearby Cabra themselves.

Having been unoccupied for 35 years, this prominent village house was restored across three floors while maintaining the charming original features.

The master bedroom suite features a beautiful hand-moulded ceiling that drew inspiration from the Alhambra Palace in nearby Granada while the bed is framed by similar Moorish-inspired mouldings.

The French windows have Juliet balconies overlook the main village square and have stunning views.

The house is in clear ‘Amanda style’ as there are many details which mirror her own lavish £7million home which has bright walls and homely details.

It even features a fun bar area similar to in Amanda’s house – complete with dark blue wood.

Amanda risked the wrath of BBC bosses after claiming that she took 28 flights during the making of the show in Spain.

Her comment came weeks after the BBC unveiled its first Climate Transition Plan, detailing how it intends to be net zero by 2050.

Speaking of his green plans, director general Tim Davie said: ‘This will be a huge collective effort. It won’t be easy, but we must act, and act now, to reduce our environmental impact.’

But it seemed Amanda didn’t get the memo. She let slip that she took more than two dozen flights while she hosted the show.

A BBC insider told the Mail in February: ‘They were spitting feathers in Broadcasting House when they heard how much jet setting goes on to make that show.

‘If that’s how many flights Amanda took, you can only imagine how many there were with Alan and the rest of the crew.

‘Tim Davie is always speaking about the need for the BBC to reduce its emissions, and this makes a mockery of his words.’

The renovation show, which broadcasted on BBC1, was filmed between March and September and is made by production company Voltage TV.

Amanda told podcast The Rest Is Entertainment: ‘I think we made 28 flights in total, so we were absolutely shattered and I broke at least four sets of nails.

‘We fly out backwards and forwards, obviously I’ve got other jobs that I do, so does Alan. So we will fly out for three days, come back and do the other work, and fly out ten days later.

‘Also there are times when me and Alan can’t be there together, so you might see me relaxing on the beach or going to the spa, and Alan might be bashing down a wall and that’s because our schedules weren’t able to work together.’

Amanda’s team disputed it was 28 flights and said the figure was 16. The average return flight from the United Kingdom to Spain generates 195kg of CO2 per pᴀssenger.

When approached the BBC said ‘all efforts were made to reduce carbon emissions’ during production including waste recycling, rechargeable batteries for all filming equipment, and car sharing.

The BBC told the Mail: ‘Amanda Holden and Alan Carr were required to fly back to the UK during breaks in filming for other work commitments.

‘The construction crew was sourced locally and crew members who travelled from the UK were mostly based in Spain for the duration of their contracts.’

The series followed the success of Amanda And Alan’s Italian Job, which was aired for two series in 2023 and 2024 and was nominated for a National Television Award, which saw the pair renovate two dilapidated apartments in Sicily.
