Rehabbed Gascoigne Misses Sentencing
Ex-World Cup star Paul Gascoigne, 43, has missed his court appearance to be sentenced for drink-driving.

District Judge Stephen Earl was informed that Gascoigne had voluntarily checked himself into a clinic on the south coast.
The case was adjourned until December 9.
