AMANDA Holden has suffered her "worst nightmare" after missing a flight to Italy to see Alan Carr, all because she picked up the wrong passport.
BGT judge Amanda, 52, revealed her gaffe on Heart FM this morning while speaking on a FaceTime call with Jamie Theakston and her cover host, Zoe Hardman.
She'd been due to film the second series of her BBC DIY show, Amanda and Alan's Italian Job.
But it when when she arrived at London City Airport that the actress realised she'd brought her husband Chris Hughes' passport instead.
Having successfully made her way to her destination, she explained how it all went down during the Breakfast show today.
Zoe told listeners: "Now listen, someone’s just dropped us a text Sam 'Where is Amanda off to?' I passed her yesterday at Gatwick Airport on return from Spain, she was looking very glamorous!'"

Amanda jumped in: "Oh! Well I wasn’t supposed to be at Gatwick yesterday, I was supposed to be at City Airport… I got to City Airport and I opened my passport and it was my husband Chris’ passport!
"It was my worst nightmare, my poor friend who was with me, he had to carry on to Italy, and then I had to get into a taxi, I mean shout out to a lady called Georgie Hicks who just helped me all the way she could yesterday to get me onto that plane.
"I had someone go and get my passport on a motorbike, and it got to me when the plane had taken off, so then I got to Gatwick and then eventually I got to Italy in the afternoon!"
Jamie replied: "Goodness me, that’s the sort of stress that gives me goosebumps."

Amanda continued: "But do you know what? Honestly Jamie, before I left the house yesterday, I had all my stuff with me in the studio, my husband said, 'You got the right passport?' and I went, 'Do you know what, stop treating me like one of the children!'
"To ring him up and say, 'You won’t believe it, I’ve got your passport' and he text me on later in the day, 'Can I still talk to you like you’re one of the children.'
"I just wanted to kill him that he was right!"
Back in May, The Sun revealed Amanda and Alan had landed a second series of their TV show.
The eight-part series was one of the highest rating factual entertainment shows of this year.
The pair left audiences in stitches of laughter as they renovated a crumbling Sicilian holiday home while getting to grips with power tools and drinking aperol spritz.
