Tom I was drinking colossal amounts

-

TV chef Tom Kerridge has said he misses the alcohol that made him dependent but cannot return to the chaos of his drinking life.

Michelin-starred Kerridge has revealed he would order a pint of Negroni after work “just as a starter”.

Speaking on BBC Radio 4’s Desert Island Discs today, the Gloucester­shire chef spoke of his missing the fun of his heavy drinking.

He said: “Alcohol had g a i ne d a g r i p . I ’m untrustwor­thy with it. I was drinking colossal amounts.

“I would always be the last man standing, driving it on. I miss that guy, I miss the chaos and I miss the fun – but I can’t. I worry about it all the time.”
