Time for breakfast heroes

The Libertines frontman Pete Doherty has become one of only a few people to tackle a breakfast challenge at Dalby Café in a coastal area of Margate. 

 

He surprised passers-by by wolfing down the collossal meal in less than 20 minutes, meaning he received the breakfast for free. According to the owner of the Cliftonville café, Mark Ezekiel, only '"five or six" people have managed the feat.

The challenge requires that those brave enough to take it on eat (brace yourself): four rashers of bacon, four eggs, four sausages, hash browns, onion rings, bubble and squeak, beans, two rounds of bread and a quarter pounder burger with chips...he must have been hungry. 

The Libertines are currently situated in the Margate area, taking over a hotel and becoming shirt sponsors for Margate FC. They plan on setting up a recording studio called the Albion Rooms, and have recenltly accounced they will curate a day's line-up at Wheels and Fins Festival between 7-9 September.

Apparnetly Doherty made light work of the mega breakfast, and, in the week where the video of him waiting in a queue to buy Oasis' Be Here Now turns 21, Pete has again proved he's the coolest guy ever.
