Barrymore 'drunk and foul-mouthed' before tragedy

Television presenter Michael Barrymore was “drunk and foul-mouthed” the night a man was found floating in the swimming pool at his luxury home, an inquest heard today.

Stuart Lubbock, 31, had gone to the 50-year-old gay comic’s house in Roydon, Essex, in the early hours of March 31 last year after meeting the star in a local nightclub.
