BBC News - Bond actress Angela Scoular died drinking acid cleaner


Ouch!!! That HAD to hurt!

That's got to be a horrible way to go.

The actress, who had battled alcoholism for years, used to drink between 150 and 210 units of alcohol a week.

20-30 units a night, every night. What's that, the best part of a bottle a night?

Edit: by bottle I mean spirits not becks/lambrini

Poor woman .......

I would have preferred to go on one last holiday to a country which legalises euthanasia though .... Not a nice way to go doing what she did ...

9.8 units in a bottle of wine.

37.5 units in a litre bottle of Smirnoff.

That drink aware website is scary!!!

2 to 3 bottles of vino a night, 7 days a week.

I'd have done myself in just trying to get to bed, that or burned the house down cooking fishfingers.

According to that I'm drinking 80 units a week which comes to 5500 calories per week.

Might look to reduce that by 500 calories.

Great idea. That way, the next time we meet in the pub you might be able to arrive a bit less ostentatiously.....

2/3 bottles between 2 of you on a weeks holiday I could probably do but not every day for a long time... crikey.

God love her.

Likewise with the fish fingers!!

I saw a tea towel today, one of those retro type ones and it said "If it fits in a toaster, I can cook it!" I may have to purchase one

It's scary how it all adds up.

Let's say suity nips down the pub and has 5/6 pints of guiness. Each pint is 2.5 units. So 6 pints is 18 units.

Do that 4 times a week and lo you have had 72 units.

Frightening really.
