On Wednesday, the 54-year-old had to play catch up, having missed Tuesdays window, so he got to open two at once.

Filming the big reveal, the presenter can be heard saying: "I'm late today, what's in the sixth...marmalade vodka, oh yes."

Phil immediately opened the next box, saying: "What's in the seventh, it is...elegant gin, now that's right up my street."

Rounding out the set is a selection of liqueurs, but while £130 might be a lot for some people, it was significantly cheaper than a whiskey-based advent he and Holly were shown on the programme last month.

The duo were in high spirits after taking a sip of the pricey tipple in its mini bottle, which was one of just 10 ever produced.

Phil seemed eager to get his hands on the booze and didn't hesitate in taking a gulp as Holly encouraged him.

She questioned its super-expensive price tag before urging: "It's actually £1,000! Drink it!"

An animated Phil was left wide-eyed in delight after taking a sip as he gushed: "It's really smooth."

After learning the cost of the Drink By Dram product, Holly said she wouldn't have been able to enjoy it, while her co-host quickly responded: "I could!" and tucked the bottle in his pocket.

Holly delicately placed the Japanese liquor to her lips and savoured the taste as they juggled drinking with hosting a segment on Amazing Advent Calendars alongside Natalie Anderson.
