Richard Harris and his drinking buddies put modern stars to shame
[from Contact Music]
COLIN FARRELL's reputation as a big drinker has been ripped to shreds by the legendary alcohol consumption of past movie stars OLIVER REED, Harry Potter's original Professor Dumbledore RICHARD HARRIS and RICHARD BURTON.
The PHONE BOOTH hunk has been labelled a party animal for his hedonistic lifestyle, but a new survey has found Reed, Harris and Burton's penchant remains unrivalled.
First placed Reed - who died in a Maltese pub in 1999 while shooting GLADIATOR - once claimed to have downed 106 pints of beer in a single session.
Farrell, 27, only managed to land fourth place - behind late stars Harris and Burton - beating out contemporary drinkers ROBERT DOWNEY JR and RUSSELL CROWE. OASIS singer LIAM GALLAGHER, NICOLAS CAGE and BOY GEORGE also feature in the top ten.
The poll of 2,500 Brits was conducted by Oriental food specialist BLUE DRAGON to celebrate the Chinese Year of the Monkey.  | |

thats was what all the actors of ther time was like but his drinking never interfiered with his acting. all actors in the 60s were like that . its a shame he isnt here to see the poll he would be pleased.

Thanks for the info... But I think that this story is bad for actor's images... It's not good to talk about people's problems if their already dead...

But its not a shameful thing Edge, i mean i'd be proud to out-drink farell, now if i could be that popular...
But if anything its just a reminder that harris wasn't always Dumbledore, he was a young lad who had fun. If anything i celebrate this poll as it proves that you dont have to be young and make rubbish films to drink well..

I think it's hilarious! I agree it's not exactly something to brag about but, it's saying something!
