Naughty Friday

This morning's Daily Mirror did yet another 'Craig Charles going off the rails' piece. While today's pictures of Craig Charles rolling around on a pub floor are good value, they pale in comparison to the images taken from the "Naughty Friday" debacle.

To anyone unfamiliar with Craig Charles's antics on that fateful Friday, here's the summary:

Coronation Street actor, Craig Charles, picks up a cab after finishing filming on a Friday evening. He then proceeds to purchase £30 worth of crack and orders his driver out of the car to buy selection of pornographic magazines (to the value of £20). The pair then embark on a 4 hour drive around Manchester, during which the TV personality smokes 60 hits of crack and purchases another 2 pornographic magazines.

Basically, it's the film 'Collateral' could have been. If they had cast Craig Charles in place of Tom Cruise and swapped the LA setting for the suburbs of Manchester, they could have had a blockbuster on their hands. Michael Mann fucked up.

Here are my favourite things that are revealed in this article:
1) Craig Charles christens the evening 'Naughty Friday'.
2) Craig Charles still buys printed porn in the digital age.
3) Craig Charles makes his cab driver buy this printed porn for him.
