Former Corrie actor Bruce Jones has been spotted looking worse for wear during a drinking session despite claiming on TV he was beating his battle with booze and depression. The star, who played the Street's resident drunk Les Battersby, was caught on camera leaving a pub just 36 hours before he appeared on ITV show Daybreak saying 'I feel great'. Mr Jones had headed to the drinking hole after he made a brief appearance on Keith Lemon's ITV2 panel show Celebrity Juice, arriving on set at 8.30pm.
