Alan Carr has said that while he tries to stay neutral on Interior Design Masters, he does have the “worst poker face” when looking at a visually jarring room.
Speaking to RadioTimes.com and other press at a roundtable for the upcoming season, the comedian was asked whether he’s more “judgy” in this series.
“Yeah, well they said to me: ‘Oh Alan, we love how honest you are’ which basically means I’m a b***h,” he said.
“I try to be firm but fair but I have the worst poker face going and you know, sometimes lime green or baby-poo brown – I mean my face just shows it. I try to be quite neutral but with this face, you’re fighting a losing battle.”
He added that he’s picked up a few tips and tricks from Interior Design Masters judge Michelle Ogundehin, who was the former editor-in-chief of Elle Decoration.
“I do learn from Michelle. You know it’s all about the flow or what does the room tell you and then give it a pop of colour. So I’ve tried to be a bit more, you know, fingers on the pulse or what it were.”
The upcoming season will see ten wannabe interior designers battle it out for the chance to win a commercial contract to design a bar at a grand hotel.
