Overview
Stereo MCs front man Rob Birch had his collar felt by customs officials at Gatwick airport early this morning (Thursday 28th August).
Returning from a 4-day break from promoting new album Double Bubble and visiting his children in Barbados, customs officers' suspicions were raised by the short duration of Rob's trip to the Caribbean isle and asked to search his luggage.
Convinced he was a drugs mule , Rob was given a body search in a holding room and threatened with immediate arrest when he refused to succumb to being xrayed-when he finally gave permission he was found to be concealing a cheese sarnie and quite a healthy bone structure -quote-"all they found was my balls and my breakfast".
Thankfully they were not confiscated. Rob was finally released without charge.
