Former football star Paul Gascoigne has been charged with drinking and driving for the second time in less than a year.
The 43-year-old Tyneside-born former England midfielder was stopped by police in Newcastle on Friday.
He was breathalysed and later charged. He is due to appear at Newcastle Magistrates' Court on 20 October.
Gascoigne is due to stand trial next month for allegedly drinking and driving in North Yorkshire in February.
