Amanda Holden takes a swipe at BBC show as she complains about ‘urine soaked dressing room floors’ while filming travel series with Alan Carr

Amanda Holden took a cheeky swipe at her show with the BBC as she complained about ‘urine soaked dressing room floors’ on Friday. 

The presenter, 54, also criticised the series’ name, their travel arrangements and suggested she and Alan Carr’s next show should be shown on Netflix instead. 

The duo recently announced the name of their latest BBC series will be Amanda and Alan’s Greek Job following their similar renovation shows in Spain and Italy.

However, Amanda revealed she is not looking forward to having to change outfits on urine soaked floors like she did the last time she filmed abroad with Alan. 

As they discussed the show on Alan’s travel podcast, Alan recalled: ‘Do you remember we had to wee in behind bins and sh*** like that? I’m dreading it.’

Amanda recalled: ‘I have a pile of clothes on me at the back. I’ve got all of Alan’s shirts, like 15 dresses I’ll change into, three hats lined up on the back.’

She continued: ‘And then we get out and I get changed in loos where there’s like wee on the floor, beach huts. That’s behind the scenes.’

Alan added: ‘But the thing is people don’t understand there’s no… The toilets aren’t working when we get there.We have to go and use someone’s toilet or a portaloo.’

Amanda agreed: ‘We have to beg for… I mean, how many umbrellas have you put up over various countries when I’ve had to wee behind them?

‘You’ll notice that there’s hundreds of costume changes for us as well. So we travel, for some reason, the company that we do it with, always hire the smallest cars.

‘And I’m in the back with Christian, who does our hair and make up. You’re in the front doing the music selection.’

After admitted they didn’t like the name of their new series either, Alan suggested it should be called My Big Fat Greek Renovation.

While Amanda confessed: ‘It’s not good. Well, we should argue with the BBC about that.’  

‘But I’ve always wanted to visit Japan. It’s like the place to go. I want to go in the spring,’ she added. ‘And I just think maybe Alan, we should just go to Netflix with our next show, Big in Japan with Amanda and Alan. Yeah. Love it. That idea is with them.’

The BBC declined to comment when contacted by MailOnline. 

Amanda also recalled the shocking time when she broke her leg while on a family holiday with her husband Chris Hughes and their kids Lexi, 19, and Hollie, 13. 

She claimed the H๏τel where they were staying wanted her off the premises swiftly so that she would keep quiet about injuring herself there.

The Heart FM radio presenter told Alan: ‘So my leg was broken when I went on another holiday, and I had little Holly with me, and there was this kid who was an absolute pain in the a** on it. 

‘You know how you always get one kid that’s like, and he was like bouncing and shoving, and anyway, Holly was scared because he was all over the place with no parents. And I went, she said, Mommy, I’m getting off.

‘I said, ”Holly, wait for Mommy. Wait for Mommy”. She jumped off. And as I jumped off, I twisted my ankle and I did a double break.

‘And I swam back to shore, and Chris was on the shore, and I was going like that. And he was going, ‘did you have a lovely time?’

‘And I was going, ‘I think I broke my leg.’ It was flapping around. That H๏τel got me out sharpish in a taxi. Because I had broken my leg on their property, basically. 

‘They wanted me to Keep stum. Anyway, that’s another story.Where there’s claim there’s a blame.’

She added: ‘The first time I went to Cyprus, I woke up and it was like a carry on film. There had been a tornado and everything was everywhere. Deckchairs blown over, mud everywhere. I was like, right, great. That was horrible.’
