When Neil Morrissey bought a home in rural France, he finally seemed well on the way to ditching his wild man image.
The actor – who found fame as lager-guzzling Tony in award-winning BBC comedy Men Behaving Badly – hoped he would be welcomed into the community of Lot-et-Garonne.
But now Morrissey, 48, the region’s most famous ‘Anglo-Saxon’, is being targeted for encouraging alcohol-fuelled rowdiness known as ‘le binge-drinking’.
Indeed, the situation grew so out of hand recently that the all-French staff at Les Arcades, one of the area’s most popular bars, produced a poster featuring a picture of Morrissey accompanied by the legend ‘Do not serve this man’.
They claimed the popular actor became a negative influence while enjoying his favourites of beer and whisky chasers.
