Bruce Jones (Les Battersby)

[northernmonkey]

Just heard on the Radio that Bruce Jones (better known as Les Battersby out of Corrie) tried to cause a high speed car crash in North Wales.

Think he's SADLY going to end up being sectioned under Mental Health act or being sent to Prison if he continues his erract behaviour, which is sad really as, I thought he was best in corrie!!

This has just come out in court today, but actually happened in August last year, apparently he is now trying to get his drinking under control, but I agree he was good in Corrie, shame when actors (or anybody really) hit the self destruct button isn't it?

[northernmonkey]

Yeah, is a great shame. He's very much starting to remind me of Paul Gascoigne, I mean look at the events of his life. At one point, having everything he wanted and being quite wealthy, then ending up in a huge amount of debt and becoming an Alcoholic. Again, tragic

Wasn't he kicked off Corrie because of his drinking? He was on that Famous Rich & Homeless show and couldn't keep out of the pub! I don't really like him, but it is a real shame.

Could be Prison next month for him ....... as a Judge has Todayrefused his sentencing to be brought forward or defered hmmm what you think?
