Frankie Bridge: Fashion, Wine & The Saturdays Reunion

17:44Let's have a taste. Cheers, bottoms up. Okay, come on, before you judge me. This is a bit of rosé with lemonade. I find this sacrilege. Many of the wine connoisseurs that listen to this, many of them, how is it?

17:56Alan Carr:What's the point? What do you mean? You know, I will say as well, a lot of the ice has melted, so it's kind of a watery... Yes, it is, yeah. But why do you do that? Why would you just not go for something else? Do you want the feeling of drinking a rosé? You don't want to look left out? No, I actually, I do really like rosé and I can now drink rosé without lemonade. Yeah. I've promised myself I wouldn't cry. She's grown. She's a woman now. I am a woman. Slipping through my fingers.

18:31Wine bag in hand.

18:35I am from Essex. Yes. Quite an Essex thing. Whereabouts Essex? Up Minster, right at the end of the district line. Okay, because I used to live in Woodford, but people would say that that's not actual proper Essex. Yeah, people would say it's not Essex, but it is. I just like the taste. I think it's more refreshing. I do love quite a lot of ice in it as well. And also it means if you've got a shit rosé, it makes it good. Yeah, yes. But you, going back to Essex, because obviously you did S Club Juniors. I did. Do you feel like if you maybe didn't do that, you might have turned into the Essex, you know, it's known for the party and it's known for going out.

19:10Do you might have ever ended up being sugar up? What a reach. I used to work in Sugar Hut. No way. Yes. Did you? In between Escov Juniors and the Saturdays, I worked behind the bar in Sugar Hut.

19:21Alan Carr:Oh, what's a big cellar in the Sugar Hut? Oh, I can't remember. You know, my favourite thing was people would come up to the bar and they'd be like, Billy, big bollocks. Be like, I've got this guy's champagne, yeah, shots. And they'd come up to me and they'd be like, what's the cheapest champagne that you've got? And I'd go, oh, this one. And they'd go, oh, actually, no, just sparkling wine or something. And I'd be like, yeah, OK, not so much. Oh, wow. Yeah. Oh, so they're like that, making it rain. Yes, and I actually used to have to serve, they used to make me serve all the celebs, which was a real, you know, come down from being in F-S-O-B juniors.

19:52And I used to have to serve one of the ones from Blazing Squad. I can't remember what his name was. Well, that does not narrow it down. No, that's quite a lot. There's 107 of them. And there you go, yeah. One of the ones from Blazing Squad. I would say you worked in, but you then, you kind of missed the party lifestyle of yes. I think I did, yeah. And also I had a sister that really loved to drink. And I, because I was in Escobar Junior, she had come home from a night out. I used to follow her up the stairs because she was like Bambi. Her legs just didn't work once she had a drink. She's still the same.

20:25I'd follow her upstairs, make sure she got in bed. I'd put her in her pyjamas, give her some paracetamol on the side and set her alarm for work. and she'd just wake up when her alarm went off and go off to work and be like, great, thanks, Frank. Yeah, so she's the more fun one. If you want to have a really good night out, go home with my sister.

20:41Alan Carr:Oh, stop. I wish we'd got her on the podcast. Yeah, I guess it's too late. You know who's like that? Amanda Holden's like that with me. Is she? She's really kind and so. And the amount of times I've woken up in her spare room and there's always like a couple of like, you know, paracetamol or some urethin or she holds back his hair. Yeah, you need a friend like that.

21:05Thanks for doing two strands. So talk to us about fashion. So, you know, you have created an empire. You've created a big, your faves, not Frankie's faves. No, just faves. Just faves, okay. Talk to us about that. So that came about, was it just on Instagram, first of all? Yeah, so it was just on Instagram, first of all. We created a community for women to feel like they have access to fashion. and it just kind of happened naturally of me sharing outfits every week from the high street and I just think, especially as women, we go through these stages where life changes, we pivot in our careers, we have kids and you kind of lose your weight with fashion and I just wanted women to feel like they could still be a part of it and feel more confident and now we have an email that goes out every week, people can sign up to it.

21:54It's for free, isn't it? For free, yeah. And so they get first dibs on all the links for the outfits and we kind of solve fashion problems. It's kind of like a big fashion catalogue. You're almost like an agent for all the fashion things because you curate it, don't you?

22:10Alan Carr:You do. If you want to know what the trends are and stuff, I mean, I'm so old now, I don't even know what the trend is. And then you don't want to start looking like, if I start dressing like Harry Styles, people would have gone back on the pipe. I think I'd like it if you started dressing like Harry Styles. Me and the short shorts. Yes. With my varicose face. Get them sorted. Yeah. Get the short shorts on. But we do live runways now as well. during London Fashion Week, which has been a really huge thing for us because I think it's one of those things that even people that work in fashion, a lot of them don't get to go to the fashion shows.

22:40So it was really fun to do that. So we're doing another one this year. So what does that involve? So you get the models and they fashion the catwalk? Yeah, so they're not models. Yeah, so we use our influencers. So we've got Faves Ambassadors who are influencers. But they're all different shapes and sizes and they have never done a runway before. so for them it was like a really big deal um it's just about people feeling seen oh it's empowering

23:06Alan Carr:as well yeah because i mean fashion does have this uh reputation for being a bit snarky and a bit like but it's nice because everyone should feel good and want to feel good and look good and yeah yeah it's positive did you did you always get that because obviously being in the saturdays you probably would style them those were you always quite fashion forward or is this something that's come later on? No, I think I was. I think I always knew what I liked and what I didn't like. It's hard when you're in a band because obviously you have to kind of all look good together. Compliment each other. And I just wasn't ever naturally a girly girl when I joined the Saturdays.

23:38People won't know this about you, but you're a bit of an emo. I am, yeah. Yeah. Rock, aren't you? Yeah, man. Yeah. Ready?

23:46Alan Carr:What, an emu? You're like Wayne. My husband calls me an emu. She was an emu. I did always enjoy fashion, but it's harder when you've got to all fit in together. But it's just always something I loved. And what I think is great is now, there's not really like actors, musicians, everyone like fashion and the arts are kind of just one now. Whereas I feel like it wasn't like that so much when I was in the band. And we have to ask, the gays will kill us if we don't. Here it comes. Will, will, she's thrilled about this. Will there ever be Saturday's reunion? Who knows? Who knows? Who knows? I don't know.

24:23Maybe rebrand Bank Holiday Monday. I was thinking if we could be backing singers at the Monday mornings.

24:31Alan Carr:That's probably more likely. The hangovers from hell. Yay! Go on tour with you. I don't know. So I'm kind of like, one day I would love to do it like a one-off. I don't think I could do a whole album single and all of that stuff. But I feel like the gays deserve it. Yeah, they do. Like I genuinely do. I feel like the Megamix, another gay man that comes up to me and says, I still love the Megamix. I used to go to Thompson's Arms down Canal Street in my 20s and the Megamix would come on and I'd be like, I love the Ting Tings.

25:06Anyway, Alan, what do you think? Can I just say, though, I do think, sometimes I do feel sorry for people who are in boy bands, girl bands, or what, because often people go, like, you deal with the information you have at the time and you don't know that 10 years down the line, five years down the line, you might currently be like, no, we're not going to get back together. But actually five years down, you might go, actually, like it has to be right for everyone.

25:28Alan Carr:Well, that's what Posh said, isn't it? She said, you know, her kids were growing up and they were like, mum, what do you do? And then she went, you know, it's nice to go and do it. To be fair, I always say that because obviously my husband used to play football. I'm always like, our kids have absolutely no idea what we used to do. Like absolutely no idea. They also don't care. I'm also like, they think he's really cool. so I've got two boys. Does that ever annoy you? Are you like, I was a pop star? Yes. I'm like, mummy used to be a pop star, darling, okay? Tell your friends. Have you ever done a fashion faux pas?

26:00Alan Carr:Is there anything you look back and go, oh no, why? Oh, so many. Frankie, why did you do that? So many. You know what? There's a few. One that really sticks out for me always is, bless our stylists at the time, we had these dresses because we all used to wear different colours and we had these dresses that were like bin bag material and they had a little bow on the front. And because I was like, I'm emo, I don't want to wear a colour, I was like, no, I'm going to wear the black one. So I basically wore a bin bag on the red carpet. I screwed myself and it haunts me still. And then other than that, I wore, it was an amazing dress, but I had the audacities to go to Pride of Britain in a tiny silver, fully sparkled dress with all bits missing out of it.

26:47And I thought that was appropriate to wear to Pride of Britain. It looked great.

26:51Alan Carr:Yeah. But that's what makes me laugh about those people on the red carpet. Yeah, you celebs need to know it's not about you, it's about the public. And I'm like, well, you're the one queuing here from 5am to get a fucking autograph. Keep that in. Please, Alan, tell us how you really feel. Now I'm walking down. They're the real celebs. I know, they're fucking... Yeah, why are you asking for a selfie then? Yeah, I know these people are amazing. Right, chill out. Before we go on to our wine accessories, we've got some wine fashion for you to be judging with us. Okay, I'm so excited. We want to move away from the rosé and lemonade.

27:28We've got you a nice rosé because it's a wine podcast. So we thought we'd bring a nice Cote de Provence for Frankie to try. And we've got actually an accessory, haven't we? Yes, we have. We've brought it. Oh. So this can complement the wines. For the purpose of the listeners, I've pulled out a Cote de Provence and Alan has pulled out a Dick-canter. A Dick-canter. A Dick-canter. Which is it generally used for rosé wine?

27:58Alan Carr:Do you know how long I was there of having that moulded? You actually haven't got much girth, have you? No, no. It's like a pepperami. Yeah. You know what I say? Short and thick does the trick. So... It's the opposite. I know, I don't know why I said it! Now, I will say... Oh God, it's bubbling! Why is it bubbling? Me, your balls are full! So, the reason we've chosen this bottle of rosé, alright, is because... I bet they are loving it! The people at Domaine de Lille, we're drinking out of a cock. Yeah. Are you going to drink it straight from the cock? No, you pour it. You pour it out. You let it breathe.

28:46All right, so... Do you do that with roses? This, this... No, you don't really. This vineyard is owned by Chanel. Oh, I love it. Oh, she loves it already. Chanel owned this vineyard. Coco died for that, so... I love how you knew how to handle that straight away.

29:07Alan Carr:Well, give it a shake. Easy does it. Easy does it. Give it a shake. Too much is... Oh! Oh, God. Premature. Look how much you're shaking. Why are you so nervous? Why are you shaking? It's not the first time you've had a cock in your hand.

29:24It's like, Mommy, I'm sorry. God, it's hard to get... It's hard to get it going. It's hard. Oh, no, no, no.

29:36Alan Carr:Right, really lowering the tone, guys. No, but that's a fault. That's a fault. What? It's not a fault, but it's just, yeah. There's something wrong with it. Yeah, a bit of a design thing. It needs a sense of a small. It's weird because I think they were really thinking about how it works. Yeah. Look, it's all in the balls. Look, why? Yeah, oh God. Why are you so nervous? Why are you shaking? Because I don't want it to fall everywhere. I think you need to tip it forward. That's it, four. I know how to handle this. Okay. Frankie's Only Fans are available. Feel like you're back in sugar hot.

30:07Anything for a tip.

30:13Well, bottoms up. Bottoms up and cocks out.

30:20Okay, what's your drink of choice? If you were just going to have one, is it a mojito or has that put you off now? No, I never drink mojitos. That's the problem.

30:27Alan Carr:That's how she got the hangover, right? Sometimes you have a drink and I'm like that with port. Me and my dad at Christmas, you know, we have a great relationship now, but we never used to. And he's all, let's have some port. I can't have port. I get the worst hangout. You know, when you say cry, I mean, normally I can handle it. I was like, oh, if you have that one drink that just... The smell of it. Yeah, that's it. Your body goes, get it out my body. Get out my body. Because you're good as well because you can have a couple, can't you? Do you remember the 1975 where I just couldn't stop drinking?

30:56I just made such a tit of myself. That's where I asked Charlie XCX what she did for a living. But I had no idea either. Yeah, I know. No idea. She said, oh, I'm in music. I said, oh, good for you.

31:13We were both flat anyway. Do you remember when I said, I said, oh, who's this woman in front of us flailing her arms all over the place? I said, she must have won a competition. And she said, that's Florence Welsh. And I said, from the machine? Yes. From the machine. Florence from the machine. Yeah, that was a night. That was a night, yeah. And then you annoyed everyone in the cab on the way home. Yeah, because Denise said, I just kept repeating everything. Apparently, I just kept going, you must be so proud of your song. She was like, I'm really proud. And then it'd be like, pause. Do you know, you must have been so proud.

31:48And she said it was, yeah, it was awful. And that's when I realised that I really liked him. Yeah. Right, I think it's time to move on because we've got a fashion expert here. Yeah. And we are going to, we're going to judge the fashion accessories Alan, you have kindly volunteered to be our fashion model. Yes, that's right. Get that gunt ready. We're going to do that kind of this morning type fashion segment. We're calling it This Pouring, aren't we?

32:27So, let's get ready. Let's get this cleared up and let's get the fashion segment to commence. It's wine and fashion. What could possibly go right? Get me on that runway.

33:42Right, it's now time for a special segment of the Summer Wine Up, brought to you by none other than Tesco, and we're sporting our badges, aren't we, Alan? Yes, Lee Peart. Peart, that's right. Can I speak to your supervisor? I am the supervisor. Oh, wow. All over summer, we've been listening to your dilemmas, and thank you for sending them in. And we, thankfully, have a direct connection with the Tesco wine experts that are helping us through. And it is time to crack open your favourite, rosé.

34:17Alan Carr:Well, listen, do you want to hear the dilemma? Go on. I've got a barbecue coming up on the bank holiday weekend. Sounds fabulous. Except it's at my in-laws. Oh. Oh, they'll put on the same insane spread they always do. Oh, this is a positive story. I was like, oh, boring. Soggy, oh. I hope this letter is anonymous. Including the soggy potato salad my mother-in-law insists on making every single year. However, she knows her wines. What's an easygoing summer rosie I can bring that will A, survive the spread, and make me look like I know what I'm doing in the wine aisle. It sounds like there's some kind of weird competition going on between these two.

35:01Yeah. It's like, I've got the spread, but I know the wine. So this person wants to come and be like, yeah, I know what I'm doing too.

35:09Alan Carr:She doesn't want cliche. No. She wants sophistication. She wants glamour. She wants like, yeah, suck on this mother-in-law. Yeah, exactly. Well, let's start. Pop this with a mashed, not mashed potato, is it? Potato salad. Potato salad. Although she said it was soggy, so maybe it feels a bit mashed. Maybe, maybe whoever, maybe the person who said this, this is wrong. Maybe it's mashed potato. She's going, excuse me, your potato salad's soggy. Why is it hot? You're eating mash. Okay, so we're going to move. It's mash. Okay, we've got to move. We've got a dilemma to solve, babe. All right, love, we'll keep pouring.

35:46Less talking, Lee. Pee it. So first one, we have the Dianthos Butari. Oh, where's this from? So, well, I will tell you where it is from. So this, I think, is a Greek wine. Yes, I'm right. Greek. Founded in 1879. Butari is one of the country's most historic and respected wine producer, all right? You've got vibrant pomegranate in there. You've got strawberry and savory notes. But the thing is as well...

36:16Alan Carr:Well, listen to this. Dianthos, it's Greek for flower of the gods. Zeus envied his sister's flower so much the lily, he threw a bolt of lightning, created a superior flower. The rose. I'm with Zeus, this is good. Imagine, imagine her turning up to the barbecue. There you go, mother-in-law, Dianthos. It's good enough for Zeus, it's good enough for you. Yeah, Greek for flower of the gods, and then you just sashay away. Yeah, that's good. Well, listen, it's also, it retails at£10.50, and it pairs perfectly with that kind of Mediterranean seasoning. So if you've got like halloumi, feta, grilled lamb, chicken skewers, how's that tasting for you?

36:55Wow. It's nice, isn't it? Mmm, that's good. So that's a butari. I'm ready for some soggy potato salad. Yeah, of course. Bring on the mash.

37:03Alan Carr:Well, let's not judge too much because we're going to move on now to the Jardin de Rosé Languedoc. Do you remember about Languedoc? It's near, oh my God, it's next door to another region. Yes. Côte de Provence. Yes. So it's quite close to that. Just along the coast from Provence, Languedoc is producing very similar wines from the same grapes. Well, we said that. So this might be a good one to come up because I do think as well, if you're turning up to a barbecue with a woman who knows her wines and she's like, oh, Côte de Provence. But actually it can be like Languedoc, you know, it's next door neighbour.

37:41It's next door. Yeah. And I like that. I like the font. Nice. Let's have a taste of this. This also retails at£10.50. So a really, really great. That's great,£10.50. And also the bottle looks nice. It looks posh, doesn't it? I dare say it's a nicer bottle than the Dianthus. I like it ribbed. Ooh. Oh. Okay, I will say I prefer that than... This is weird.

38:07Alan Carr:It says it goes good with red snapper. I mean, that's quite specific. Yeah, well, I will say that is nicer than the Butari, I think. I prefer that, I should say. It's not nicer, but I prefer that to the Butari. What do you think? It's a bit lighter. A bit lighter. It's got that Cote de Provence feel because it's just down the road. But you know what I'm saying? I've had Greek wines before. That's good for a Greek wine. Oh, yeah, yeah. Really nice. So what's the last one, my love? The last one is the Tesco Finest English Sparkling Rosé Brut. oh i always carry emergency glasses with me you are so there we go let's open this english sparkling we've said this before it is it's the new front runner it is all right and and this oh i love a rosé sparkling do you love it okay here we go english oh so yeah it's produced um in the Balfour winery.

39:05And I think we might have had this Balfour before, but not the rosé one, all right? So let's have a taste. Tilt your glass slightly there, babe. Thank you. So we've had two rosés there. I will say the Jardin is my favourite of the two, but this is a sparkling rosé. So if you want a little bit more celebration, I wonder whether this is the one you go for. Do you know what?

39:28Alan Carr:I think that for me, that feels like barbecue. I would take these two to a friend who I knew already and they know I love a rosé, but I think if you're out to impress, then I think this is great. English sparkling, that's got to work. Yeah, I would agree. And actually, what I would say as well is, someone's putting on a barbecue for you. These two are really good price at£10.50. This one retails still a really great price for a sparkling£22. That is good for a really good sparkling. Made basically in the traditional method like champagne is. that's a little bit more of a, you've spent a bit more to say thank you for coming on.

40:06Alan Carr:But I think this mother-in-law, I think she's going to be looking to see how much she's paid for this. Yeah, she's the type that would Google the prices. I think that for the barbecue, if you're having Red Snapper, that. Yeah. Specifically. Yeah. And actually the Greek one's quite nice. If you want to go a little bit like, oh no, it's a Greek wine. And also that shows that you know your bit about wines. You've gone actually, oh no, I've gone for a Grecian one. But we're going to go for the English sparkling. Let's be patriotic today. Yeah. We're going for English. Good luck with the barbecue and also good luck with the relationship between you and your mother-in-law.

40:38We hope you sort out everything that you need to do. Head to Tesco.com or pop into your local Tesco to pick up these bottles and explore the full range.

40:47Alan Carr:Drinkware 18 Plus products are available in the majority of larger stores and online. UK only, drink responsibly. Prices are correct at time of recording and may be subject to change.

41:04Welcome back to This Pouring. Coming up, we've got Sharon Marshall with some soap gossip. But before that, we are doing our fashion segment. Now, Frankie, you're here as our fashion expert. And we've got some models that are going to walk the catwalks. So first off, we have Alan, 50, from Northampton. Come on in, Alan. Now, for the purpose of the listener, Alan is sporting a very nice, fancy turquoise and white tote bag. Now, Frankie, what do we say about that tote bag? The stitching on it looks divine, doesn't it? It does. It's very intricate, isn't it? Intricate detailing there. And there's a little popper there.

41:52Oh, there's a popper there. Yes, there is. Oh, sorry, that just popped out.

41:58Popper. Let's see, Alan, you've got a little flap there.

42:02Alan Carr:Yes, I've got a little flap. Do you want to open that? And you know when you're at the beach and there's a queue at the local pub or like the beach hut and you're just gasping for a little drink? Gasping. Well, look at this. Okay. Open the flap, get the nozzle out. Oh, there's a nozzle. There's a nozzle. And there you go. It's the old way, Alan. What? It's the wrong way, you've taken the nozzle off. What? What? That's the nozzle. So where's the nozzle? Oh God. So just... Yeah, you drink a lot of bagged wine. So you get the nozzle out and then you just twist it. You don't. You do, and then that should be that, right?

42:49Lee, we're going to lose our contract with wine bags. It's like we're milking a cow. I know. So you pop it in like that and for the purpose of the listener, this isn't working.

43:01Alan Carr:This is crap! How'd you work it? It did work, but I think you've... There you go. That's it. And you open it like that. And what I like about this, it's subtle. It's subtle, yes. No one will know you're having a sneaky drink. Yes. And then you just... You pop it back in and you go back to your sun lounger. Wow. No one knows you've had a drink. No. I'd say that's super classy. Lovely stuff. Okay, well, thank you. No, no. Ask how much it retails. Oh, sorry. Yes, of course. Alan, how much does this retail at? This is£24.99. Wow. Okay. And if you buy this, you get a free cheap necklace. Oh, the same as the one that Lee's wearing.

43:45Alan Carr:Yes, that Lee's modelling as well. Perfect. All right. Thank you, Alan. Our next model is... Actually, funnily enough, Alan, again, 50 from Northampton. Same person. So, Alan's back. Alan, nice. So, we've got another bag here. Look at his shoes. Red mocha dot. Covered in wine? Alcoholic? Me? No. Is this real leather? It's not. Come on. It's weird. It's not real leather. No. So, it's actually good, you know. Yeah. And, you know, sometimes Monday morning, you get in. Oh my God, you've got an inbox full of emails and you just saying, Oh, rat race, I need a little drink. Yes. Okay. Always. What's going to happen now, I wonder?

44:32I wonder. So, Alan's got a nice leather black handbag here. It's not leather.

44:38Alan Carr:And a very discreet... Pleather. Pleather, sorry, because I don't want any vegans. And this, you just open the flap. Oh, and there's another nozzle. Another discreet flap. Oh, we're going for the same glass. Okay. Okay, don't pranky really. Shall we keep it classy? Oh, yeah, let's keep it classy. I'm trying to get a drink out of a leather bag. It's not leather. It's leather, all right. So you just, and then twist the nozzle there. Oh, shit. Lovely stuff, Adden. Wow. Wow. What a smooth transition. Yeah, and no one knows, and then you're in the office, your boss is looking away. No one knows. Perfect.

45:22Alan Carr:Nicely done. And if you want to be more subtle, what I like to do is pour it into a dick canter. Yes. Yeah. Right up to the rim. Yes. So, Alan, can you tell us, because that bag does look lovely. It's nice. The straps are lovely, a bit of gold. And the gold hardware. Yeah, the gold hardware. It goes lovely with capri pants. It does. And the textured pleather is great. Yeah, and that's in, isn't it? Yeah. And what does this retail at, Alan? $24.99, like the other tote bag. Oh, wow. Wow. So you get a little bit more for the same price. Yeah, you do. And a little bit more premium and a little bit more kind of corporate, I guess.

45:59It's corporate, really. Yeah. Thank you, Alan.

46:02Alan Carr:You've got meetings. You've got touch base. Pivot. Think outside the box. KPIs. Think outside the box of wine. Could you drink straight from? Could you drink straight from the bag? No, that would be seen as really unclassy. Okay. We're not in Essex now. Thank you, Alan. Thank you, Alan. Thank you. All right, so next up, we have our next model. It's Alan from Northampton, who...
