Three cheers for beer

Men Behaving Badly and Waterloo Road star Neil Morrissey is in the Metro this morning extolling the virtues of beer.

Having run a couple of private clubs and a hotel in Wales over the last few years, he's just launched his own beer at his new pub in North Yorkshire. A brave move you might think, in these testing times for the pub industry but we reckon it's about time this classic British tipple got a makeover like cider's epiphany with ice last summer.

His journey is documented on Channel 4 at 10pm tonight entitled Risky Business.
