Talking of Pete Doherty, according to the Mirror Eastenders actress June Brown (who plays Dot Cotton) has told reporters her charity TKB - set up to help people kick drug addictions - is up for sending the Libertines singer to a Thai monastery to help him with his rehab.

Talking about how her charity supports drug addicts by offering rehab in the Far East, Brown told the papers: "Anyone can go. We will pay your fare, all you need is to commit to treatment. I'm a huge Libertines fan. It'd be a marvellous place for Pete to kick his addiction."

A spokesman for Doherty told the paper: "It's a great offer but he is already being treated."
