Alan Carr expressed his desire to relocate to a castle in a different part of the UK following his victory on Celebrity Traitors. He aims to escape the memories of his previous home shared with his former spouse. The comedian shared plans to feature his castle quest on an upcoming series on Disney+.
“I’m getting myself a castle. I fancied a change – I’m selling up and heading there,” Alan Carr mentioned to the Mirror. He emphasized his independence in making this decision after his divorce four years ago. Excited about the prospect, he revealed his intention to explore properties in Scotland soon.
Despite speculation linking him and Amanda Holden to roles on Strictly Come Dancing, Alan firmly dismissed the idea due to their busy schedules. He emphasized the need for someone deeply passionate about the show, which he feels does not align with his interests.
Alan, set to co-host a new show with Susie Dent on Channel 4, highlighted his strong friendship with Amanda Holden and laughed off rumors of a chemistry test for their partnership. Reflecting on his past marriage and recent experiences on Celebrity Traitors, Alan expressed his enthusiasm for embracing new challenges, including the pursuit of a castle as a personal milestone.
The upcoming TV project, tentatively titled Castle Man, will follow Alan’s journey of acquiring a castle and the comedic trials that may accompany such an endeavor. Executive producer Ben Wicks commended the project, noting Alan’s status as a comedy icon and the unique storyline surrounding his castle acquisition.
