Comedian Tony Slattery: “My feet were bitten by rats”

"Whose Line Is It Anyway?" star Tony Slattery has spent the last decade away from the spotlight while battling a drink and drugs problem.

Talking to BBC Radio 5 live's Stephen Nolan, he spoke about how he hit his lowest point:

"I just can't think of anyone else in show business that's had it done - they tested me for plague."

The gonzo comedian will make a return to the stage with the show that made him famous at the Edinburgh Festival this year.
