Lindsay Lohan has been described as a “nymphomaniac” and “wild in bed” by ex-boyfriend Riley Giles.

After watching our video, Pete's spokesman told us: "He's been a very foolish boy."

And now, after countless ineffective slaps on the wrist for drugs offences, we say that the time has come to lock him up for his own good.

The grim video — shot on a mobile phone and lasting 1min 14secs — shows Doherty crouched on the...
