Steve Coogan is driving on thin ice

The Independent

Coogan has persuaded a magistrate not to hand out an automatic six-month driving ban after being found guilty of speeding in Sussex. Coogan claimed that filming for his forthcoming BBC series involved driving around Britain and that “it’s an artistic thing that he drives and that defines his character”. The chairwoman of the magistrates this time around said she had taken into account the “exceptional hardship” a lengthy ban would cause.
