Former England footballer Paul Gascoigne has opened up about his additions, describing how he used Calpol to fuel his addiction and was banned from every chemist in Newcastle.
The former England footballer opened up about his addictive personality on Channel 4's Scared of the Dark. The Mirror reports the dad-of-three has publicly battled alcohol addiction and mental health problems, and he revealed how he lied about having nine children in a bit to get Calpol.
The 55-yea-old was announced as the winner of the show on Thursday. He says the show, which was fronted by Danny Dyer, has "bought his smile back".
