Amanda Holden furiously hits back at complaints over risqué BGT outfits
Amanda Holden has addressed Ofcom complaints about her daring outfits on the ITV show but insists her wardrobe is always checked by production before walking out on stage Amanda Holden's outfits on Britain's Got Talent have perhaps attracted as much attention from viewers as the talent on stage, vying for a place in the final. The presenter, who has been a judge on the show since 2007, became the main subject of complaints to Ofcom for her choice of wearing sexy outfits, showing off her enviable figure. So much so, her outfits, which have consisted of plunging necklines or high thigh splits, caused outrage among viewers, if the complaints to the broadcasting watchdog are anything to go by. But now, in a recent interview, the star, 54, has decided to address the complaints. She told Closer: "What you see on TV, I really love. I'm always asked about the Ofcom complaints, but every outfit on the show is checked before I leave my dressing room, so I'm never worried." She added: "I think people should have fun with fashion!" In another interview, the mum of two opened up about the process her wardrobe goes through before she steps out in front on the cameras. She previously told The Sun: "There's now a whole body of people that knock on my door and come and stare at my chest before we go on air." Amanda continued: "There's a t*t committee. There are so many brilliant people, they come down, knock on the door and there's the lady who's the producer who said, 'Mandy, it looks great'." Despite being at the forefront of Ofcom complaints, it looks as though the TV star has no desire to dim down the sexiness of her outfits. Away from the panel of Britain's Got Talent, Amanda is set to host a renovation show with Alan Carr, titled Amanda & Alan's Spanish Job. And she is already thinking of ways to add a touch of sexy to her overalls. She told the publication: "It's a joy to wear something so different, and nice to be able to breathe out, with no side boob. " She added: "Though next year I might have some side boob." She continued: "For now, I always go pretty classy and standard. I've got my name on the back, but I didn't even do that in Spanish — I've got Handy Mandy. I should have put Handios Mandios." Britain's Got Talent final will air at 7pm on Saturday 31 May.

Amanda Holden and Alan Carr's beautifully restored Spanish house from BBC show is now up for sale
A beautiful home which has been completely restored by Amanda Holden and Alan Carr is now up for sale at €245,000. The duo set out to transform the derelict property in the historic village of Moclín in Granada, Spain as part of their BBC One show Amanda and Alan's Spanish Job. The final episode, which aired tonight (Friday, March 14), saw Amanda and Alan go all out for their final room in the home, which had been unoccupied for 35 years, designing a lavish Moorish-themed bar to complete their home restoration. Similar programmes on the BBC have previously seen the Britain's Got Talent judge and comedian renovate homes in Sicily and Tuscany, after finding the properties for just 1 euro.

The home is being marketed through Granada Village & Country and will also be featured on Rightmove, with offers in excess of €245,000. Whilst carefully retaining some of the original features and integrity of the building, the house has now been brought back to life. Amanda and Alan's interior design ideas were drawn from Andalusian culture, art and design, whilst also reflecting their own styles, which has resulted in a unique and eclectic home. The restored house now features three large bedrooms, two bathrooms, a stylish kitchen with a large central island, a dining room and a top floor bar and living area which resembles a sophisticated London private members' club. Outdoors there is a sheltered and private patio garden with a first floor roof terrace and the option of creating more accommodation on the ground floor in the former stable. The master bedroom suite is rather impressive, with a hand-moulded ceiling that drew inspiration from the Alhambra Palace in nearby Granada, and the bed framed by similar Moorish-inspired mouldings. The French windows each have Juliet balconies that overlook the main village square. A spacious Jack & Jill bathroom links the master bedroom suite with the adjacent guest bedroom on this floor. The top floor guest bedroom has an open-plan ensuite bathroom with an arabic-style built-in bath, and a walk-in wardrobe and dressing area. Ian Rutter, director of real estate agents Granada Village & Country, who originally sold the house to the TV pair, said: 'This house had been empty for 35 years, and one of the attractive aspects of working with Alan and Amanda on this project was that it would breathe new life into a property right on the village square. Ian added: "Many villages like Moclín suffer from rural depopulation, as young people leave their family communities to find work in larger towns and cities. "Restoring old and abandoned village homes brings so much to the area in terms of the local economy, the continuation of traditions, the opportunity for revenue generation and even employment, so it has been a joy seeing this lovely house being brought back to life, and with such sensitivity.' Proceeds from the sale of the property will be split equally and donated to Comic Relief and BBC Children in Need. More details of the property can be viewed on the Granada Village & Country website.
