How does Diane Carson famously murdered by a glass of fizzy rosé on The Traitors not have her own wine yet?

Spill the Fizz follows Diane and journalist Ben Pulsford as they attempt to turn one ridiculous idea into a real rosé brand.


They do not own a vineyard. They do not come from the wine world. They do not have a polished business plan. What they do have is an idea, a growing list of celebrity accomplices and the confidence to work it out as they go.


Each week, Diane and Ben are joined by a fabulous celebrity friend who helps them tackle the next stage of the mission, from pitching the idea and building the brand to finding the wine and deciding whether they are brave enough to actually launch it.

  • Spill the Fizz Final with Miss Leigh Ding Fortunes
    Sep 16 2026

    Comedy legend Helen Lederer joins Miss Leigh Ding for a reading — and after a career spanning Absolutely Fabulous, Bottom and some of British comedy’s most iconic moments, there’s plenty for the cards to unpack.


    Helen opens up about the highs, lows and brutally funny truths behind her career, many of which she laid bare in her brilliantly candid memoir Not That I’m Bitter. But what happens when you finally stop worrying about what everyone else thinks?


    Very good timing, because on 28 September, Helen launches her brand-new live podcast EFF IT at London’s Phoenix Arts Club, a celebration of stopping the people-pleasing, ditching permission and finally not giving an EFF.


    So, has Helen truly run out of EFFs to give… or do the cards have one or two left waiting for her?


    EFF IT with Helen Lederer – 28 September at the Phoenix Arts Club. Ticketshttps://phoenixartsclub.com/events/eff-it-with-helen-lederer

  • Road to Rose: Board Meeting - Part Two
    Sep 9 2026

    As Ben and Diane edge closer to making the final decision on whether to turn their wine dream into a reality, it’s time to look back at just how far they’ve come.


    From blind tastings and big ideas to the advice, warnings and wisdom picked up along the way from guests including Helen Lederer, Gail Porter, Miles Asteri and Jonathan Phang, Ben and Diane take stock of everything they’ve learned

    .

    But before they can decide whether to actually make Diane’s fizzy rosé, there’s one slightly terrifying question left to answer…

    Is Diane’s star big enough to launch a celebrity wine?

  • Road To Rose: Board Meeting - Part One
    Sep 2 2026

    This week, Ben and Diane regroup for a very important Spill the Fizz board meeting to work out exactly where the Road to Rosé has taken them so far… and what on earth happens next.

    It’s a family affair this week as they take stock of the journey, pay tribute to Dolly Parton with a fine bottle of her rose.


    The Team finally open the inbox to see what the wine world has made of their slightly chaotic mission to create Diane’s very own fizzy rosé.


    There are replies, revelations and potentially even a few actual leads. Has somebody finally agreed to help them make this thing?

    The board is officially in session.
