Outspoken TV personality Giles Coren shopped a fellow guest at a Gillingham hotel he claimed was smoking cannabis.

The food critic, who has appeared on Gordon Ramsay's The F-Word, was thought to be staying in the Premier Inn, in Gillingham Business Park, this week.

He took to his Twitter account at 11pm on Wednesday to denounce a fellow guest at the budget hotel.

He wrote: "By the way, if you're the person smoking skunk in room 46 of the Premier Inn in Gillingham, I just grassed you because it ****ing stinks."

Giles, who had been in Kent filming for a new BBC TV show about British food, added: "It's just anti-social. Vile stinky habit so he should do it at home, not in a public place like a hotel."

The author and journalist, who is famous for his foul-mouthed outbursts, received messages of support from his 75,000 followers.

Medway Police found no record of visits to any of Medway's Premier Inns on Wednesday.

Hotel staff were unavailable for comment.
