Jonathan Ross Show: Alan Carr’s "Turret Era" and Neve Campbell’s Scream 7 Secrets

The latest installment of The Jonathan Ross Show delivered a high-energy mix of Hollywood anecdotes, supernatural encounters, and comedic revelations. Host Jonathan Ross welcomed an eclectic panel including "Celebrity Traitors" winner Alan Carr, "Scream" veteran Neve Campbell, "Gran Turismo" star Archie Madekwe, and comedian Rob Beckett alongside his wife, author Lou Beckett. The evening, which concluded with a live performance by Mumford & Sons, provided deep insights into the personal and professional lives of some of the entertainment industry's most recognizable faces, according to reports by The WP Times, citing tvzoneuk.

Alan Carr’s "Turret Era" and Traitors Aftermath

Fresh off his victory in "Celebrity Traitors," comedian Alan Carr revealed that his time in the Scottish castle has triggered what he humorously describes as a midlife crisis. As he approaches his 50th birthday, Carr announced plans to purchase a castle in Scotland, complete with moats, drawbridges, and a desire to build a community zoo. He joked about reintroducing wolves to help the ecosystem and mentioned that his "loneliness" in his current residence prompted the search for a grander property where he can host "cream teas" for visitors.

Discussing the intensity of "Celebrity Traitors," Carr admitted that the long hours and secret filming schedules were grueling. He shared a memory of the roundtable sessions with Stephen Fry, where contestants were scrutinized for signs of fatigue. Carr also confessed to being a "crap" liar, noting an instance where he burst out laughing while trying to declare his faithfulness. The show's popularity has even followed him to America, where he recounted being jokingly accused of "murder" by fans on the street.

Neve Campbell on Scream 7 and Royal Encounters

Actress Neve Campbell provided updates on the highly anticipated "Scream 7," confirming that the film focuses on Sidney Prescott’s journey as a mother. She described the plot as a "dramatic" return to Sidney’s nightmare—the possibility of Ghostface harming her family. Campbell reflected on her 30-year history with the franchise, comparing the first film to "summer camp" and expressing her delight in working with co-star Isabel May.

Beyond her film career, Campbell shared a unique story regarding a past encounter with Prince Harry. She recalled meeting him at a birthday party where he revealed he had a poster of her on his wall as a child. While they shared a dance, Campbell clarified it was not a date. She also recounted a terrifying professional experience from her youth: while filming a scene with a real black bear at age 18, the animal bit her leg and dragged her through a forest after she dipped her hand in honey for a shot.

Archie Madekwe: Haunted Sets and High-Speed Vomiting

Actor Archie Madekwe shared two standout stories from his burgeoning career. While filming "Gran Turismo," Madekwe had to learn to drive just one week before production began, eventually hitting speeds of 180 mph. He revealed that the physical toll was immense, requiring a special "vomit button" in the car to signal the crew when he was about to get sick from the G-forces.

Summary of Guest Highlights

Madekwe also recounted a supernatural experience while filming "Saltburn" in an old hotel. After being told the room next to his was haunted by Queen Victoria, he witnessed a wall "explode" with plaster, an event he believes was a ghostly intervention. This was a significant contrast to his earlier "Game of Thrones" audition, which he failed after realizing he had accidentally tracked dog excrement throughout the casting office.
