drinking british celeb/public figure ever?



Dennis Price
A trawl through the archives and one name forever stands out: Dennis Price. Aside from Kind
Hearts and Coronets and his role as Jeeves in the mid-60’s, the vast majority of Price’s acting
output was ****ing awful – blamed primarily on his herculean booze habit. Bankruptcy, gambling, failed suicide attempts all played a part in the suave
actor’s private life. In his remaining years, Dennis the Menace would have a crate of Guinness
delivered to him each morning prior to filming, finishing the day with ****loads of scotch.
Unsurprisingly, he died of liver cirrhosis.

Another worthy contender:

Charles Hawtrey
Infamous for being an awkward little [Poor language removed] when he’d had a few, the actor with 60-odd films
under his belt retired to Kent in the 1980’s to Carry on Drinking. Bevvied up after (another) night on
the drink, Hawtrey’s house caught fire in 1984, the resultant carnage splashed across newspapers
with the weedy actor looking rough as **** and in the company of a much younger man. A
discarded fag was said to be the cause – really. Four years later, at the age of 73, he breathed his
last, not long after being told by hospital staff his legs would be amputated due to decades of
prodigious smoking.

Not nice to speak about his fella like that.

Oddly enough,she reminds me of my aunt. May her soul R.I.P.


Rachel Roberts
Best remembered for This Sporting Life and Saturday Night and Sunday Morning, Roberts was
crippled by depression and alcoholism following her divorce from lecherous lothario, Rex
Harrison. Not adverse to shows of public humiliation, an appearance on the Russell Harty chat
show was so drunkenly chaotic (she called the host, ‘a silly cunt’) that the tapes were subsequently
destroyed. Worse was to follow when she waylaid Hollywood actor, Bob Mitchum at a party,
crawling up to the great man on her hands and knees, pawing his leg, barking like a dog and
nuzzling at his crotch. An overdose in 1980 ended the life of a seriously troubled woman
