He's a Biter!
Jonathan Creek star Alan Davies bit into a homeless man's EAR after going on a massive booze bender.
Paul McElfatrick howled in agony and was bleeding after curly-haired Davies sank his teeth in for 13 seconds.
Jobless Geordie Paul, 40, said he called out to Davies by the name of his sleuth character in the BBC1 series.
He recalled: "I thought he was going to whisper something but his face darkened and he almost spat the words, 'My name's Alan. You know my name - Alan. What's my name? It's Alan'.

"Then he suddenly went for my left ear. It was incredibly painful. I shrieked and my eyes were watering. He hung on and drew blood. I still can't sleep on that side of my head nearly a week later."
Other revellers broke up the 2am fracas outside the posh Groucho Club in London's West End.
"Luckily a big guy came from behind and helped to free me," said Paul. "It seemed like Alan was up for another bout so I got myself out of there as soon as I could."


Old But Gold
MOST modern number one hits could fit into one of their guitar solos.
LED ZEPPELIN returned to the stage last night with their first full set in 19 years — and younger members of the crowd had heard nothing like it.
Manufactured pop is ruling the charts and young music fans are an impatient sort.
Maybe that’s why the bars at the O2 Arena in Greenwich filled during some of the band’s winding rock epics.
But their classics proved music doesn’t rock like it used to.
Tracks like Whole Lotta Love and Stairway to Heaven had every one of the fans — who included LIAM GALLAGHER and SIR PAUL McCARTNEY — on their feet and shaking their fists.
Check out our slideshow, below.

Original members JIMMY PAGE, ROBERT PLANT and JOHN PAUL JONES were joined by dead drummer JOHN BONHAM’s son, JASON, 41.
The trio — with a combined age of 183 — burst on stage and opened with Good Times Bad Times, the first track of their debut album.
Robert Plant — wearing jeans not quite as tight as they were in his heyday — still had the energy to strut his 59-year-old body across the stage.
