'14 lines of cocaine and a few whiskies': Why Paul Gascoigne tried to 'save' Raoul Moat
The story of crazed killer Raoul Moat is being retold in a new ITV drama this weekend. But one part of the tragic tale that won't feature is the bizarre intervention of former England star Paul Gascoigne.
He said: "You've got to realise I'm half cut anyway, sitting in the living room, I've got about six lines [of cocaine] lined up. I'm not realising much but a good line and me and Raoul Moat are sort of friends. Gazza rang for a taxi and told the driver to take him to Newcastle airport so he would not suspect his real intentions. "I thought that I could take Raoul Moat fishing because he was near a river," he told The Mirror in 2020.
He went home and fell asleep with a bottle of whisky then woke up in the morning with no memory of what he'd done. "You know in the morning when you panic the first thing you do is look at your mobile," he told the audience in 2015.
