Pete Doherty Shoves Foreign Object Into His Body

Pete Doherty has vowed to have an opiate-suppressing implant shoved inside his body, to help tackle his drug addiction. During one of his compulsory drug treatment reviews he told Judge Jane McIvor that he intends to have the operation within the next couple of weeks.

The Judge said: "You are going in the right direction… It's not easy, especially in your circumstances. I appreciate that entirely… I think your concentration should be, within six months of the order, to get a negative test."

I like to think this’ll work, but I keep getting brain flashes of Doherty slipping about in his own blood, needle in one hand, butter knife in the other, desperately trying to locate the implant...

fails... calls Kate.
