DOHERTY STUNS DIRECTOR WITH SELF HARM
Troubled rocker Pete Doherty terrified a BBC TV crew when he started slashing his chest with shards of broken glass following a drunken argument.
The Babyshambles singer, who spent four months with the TV unit shooting the forthcoming documentary "Who the F*ck is Pete Doherty", infuriated producer Greg Roselli with his lack of co-operation and aggressive behaviour, but his self-mutilation came as complete shock to everyone.
The film maker recalls: "I'll never forget what I saw. I'd had to skip my wifes birthday because Pete had finally consented to talk to us.
"Pete had just had the implant to stop him taking heroin and was very jumpy.
"During one of the attacks on the cameraman a Becks beer bottle got smashed and he picked up a piece of the green glass and slashed it down his chest.
"Pete didn't even wince. It was like he was in his own private world as he started to toy with the blood and smear it all over his chest.
"He seemed fascinated by it like a child."

There were pictures of the incident The Sun newspaper over here and it looked pretty gruesome. It'll be a surprise if he makes it to his next birthday at this rate.
