Shake-up for third season of The Italian Job

ICONINSIDER — Amanda Holden and Alan Carr ‘s ‘The Italian Job’ will undergo a major shake-up for its third series.
The pair’s renovation series will get a new name ‘Alan and Amanda’s Spanish Job’ as they swap Italy for Spain’s Costa del Sol this summer.
Alan, 47, told The Mirror: “It’s always exciting when a show you love gets recommissioned but the fact that we will be bringing our unique DIY expertise to a whole different country makes it even more special. We are saying ciao for now and Hola España! Can’t wait to grab our power tools and get our hard hats on and bring some much-needed TLC to a casa in Spain.”
Amanda, 53, added: “It’s wonderful how often I’m stopped in the street and told how much people love our show. Alan and I have the best time filming it and to have reached series three already is beyond the dreams of our lockdown pitch to the BBC!
“By day we love getting our hands dirty knocking down walls and lugging around power tools knowing we’ll be sipping on an ice-cold reward by night, forgetting the cameras are rolling. Bring on the Spanish sun, we can’t wait to get started and continue to help Comic Relief and Children In Need along the way.”
All proceeds from the sale will go to the BBC’s charities Comic Relief and Children In Need.
Meanwhile, Amanda recently revealed she would love to host the BAFTAs with Alan.
She told The Sun’s TV Magazine about their future plans: “We thrive on live telly! The BAFTAs might be good, but I feel it would be a tough audience.”
Alan, who was also interviewed in the magazine, added: “The Brits would be lovely, but by god I’m too old now.
“There’s a band called Wet Leg, and I’m like, ‘Why would you call yourself Wet Leg, love?’”
