The receipt reveals that the group were drinking £140 bottles of Crystal Head vodka, £500 bottles of celebrity favourite Ace of Spades Champagne, and that they bought two Veuve Clicquot Jeroboams worth £1,120 in total.

The receipt also shows a 3 litre bottle of Belvedere worth £500 and a £700 bottle of Hennessy Cognac, plus £400 spent on tips alone which took the overal bill to £7,340.

The group spend around £1,500 per hour, according to news site Wales Online. 

Maddison owner, Richard Jackson, told reporters that it was the film investor Ali Pour who was the host for the evening. “Ali’s from Swansea and he likes taking people out in Wales,” he is reported saying.

“They also invited friends from Cardiff and a lot of people they knew were coming to say hello. We ran out of every single high-end drink you can imagine,” he said.

Revealing that they remained “down to earth” throughout the evening despite the copious amounts of expensive alcohol they were drinking, Jackson said they had “a great sense of humour.

“They enjoyed banter, especially rugby banter, and they were great fun,” he said.

He also said the fact that Karl wasn’t in his Star Trek costume prevented him from being mobbed by fans.
