Jeffrey Archer..

[Scrumpy]

On GMB trying to flog his latest book..
Greedy, greedy arrogant man..
  Certainly skeletons in his closet.. 

I would rather read the train times... even when they are not running.. Far more interesting..

Why didn't he loose his knighthood when he was sent to jail? poor old Lester Piggot did, but I suppose he wasn't one of the chosen ones.

Ghastly man.. Worth hundreds of millions...

Wasn't he the guy who approached the prostitute.. somewhere..?

Bit like the grand of Duke of Pork in that respect it seems. I had to resort to google of course...

Jeffrey Archer's 'foolish act of honourable man' – archive, 1987
7 July 1987: The former deputy chairman of the Conservative party and novelist has his first day in court in a libel case against the Star newspaper

Mr Jeffrey Archer , the former deputy chairman of the Conservative party, paid £2,000 to a prostitute he had never met to save his reputation and that of his party from scandal, a High Court jury was told yesterday.

The payment was the 'very foolish' act of a 'totally honourable man,' Mr Robert Alexander QC for Mr Archer, told the court on the first day of a libel action against the Star over an article suggesting he had sex with the prostitute, Monica Coghlan.

Mr Archer, who appeared in court with his wife, told the jury that he had never had sex with Miss Coghlan. They had not even met.

Archer pays back libel award in £1.5m settlement with Star
The disgraced peer Jeffrey Archer has settled his libel debt with the Daily Star newspaper, 15 years after he won £500,000 by lying in the high court, Express Newspapers announced yesterday.

Lord Archer, who is currently serving a four-year prison sentence for perjury, has repaid the sum he was awarded in 1987 over claims he paid money to prostitute Monica Coghlan, and is understood to have paid at least an extra £1m in legal and recovery costs.

Read my post again, I highlighted your statement "I really don't give a damn about Archers personal Life" so I'm asking if you don't give a damn about any celebrity's personal life, or is it just Jeffrey Archer ?

We don't really do sticking to topic here. Most threads wander off after a couple of posts. Bit like chatting to friends in fact...
