B00 - to be fair to Jayne, this wasn't about serious alcoholics - some bunch of retards are trying to term "functional alcoholics" for us who enjoy the occasional bevvy or a bottle of grape juice - but still are in control of our senses and can actually go dry for a few days.
More of the goddamn PC brigade and they need taking down.

But then Jayne does drink enough to keep Central Brighton going, particularly when it is bath night......

The woman who was just on said that she started to think it was normal to have "a couple of glasses to unwind".
They are not dealing with people who blow their child benefit on vodka.
Their case subject is Anne Robinson. The life of millionairess TV presenter Anne Robinson has not been totally destroyed by alcohol.
I think this programme might have been someone's hobbyhorse?

I have a nephew who is an alcoholic, as opposed to a drinker, or maybe a boozer. Believe me, he is a pathetic sight - it makes me feel ill just to look at him, and I think I am very tolerant. He will 'borrow' money from anyone just to get his alcohol. I would not wish this terrible disease on anyone. He has been dried out several times but is soon back to square one. Terrible.
well maybe it was five weeks and a few days, Douglas, have done it for 8 years now - and a couple of weeks in the summer -not about being a pizz-head but more for countering weight....
Yes Starbuck, when it becomes serious or even semi-serious (def to me - affects behaviours and relationships), then it needs action -and it ain't pretty in an awful lot of cases.

This programme is very pointedly not about unfortunate people like that, buck.
In fact, that is the whole point of the programme.
It is focussing on people who haveno need to borrow money, no life worries, etc.
If the programme was about unfortunate prople like you describe, my view would be very, very, very, very different.

The youngest bro of one of my closest friends (godfathers to each others kids) went on a combo of too much alco and powdery substances, having worked in the City.
Tragic, appalling behaviour within the family despite their support, and then too late - his continued love of the Warringtons bottle tipped him over and bang, cirrohsis (sp) of the liver and exit, leaving behind a 7 and 5 year old boys....apart from a destroyed marriage.
Horrible.

I know, jj. but I just had to tell you about him. It is so awful and having watched him I know how difficult it is for him to stop drinking, well he can't and that's the straight answer. It will kill him eventually, his liver is already affected. Moreover his mother is afraid of him - I think that is awful too.
