Johnny Briggs must be thrilled to see his daughter and granddaughter have been banned from every shop in Surrey after being done for shoplifting with menaces for the umpteenth time.

If I could repost the article I would as you would be incredulous at the state of these two smackheads who shoplift everywhere they go to fund their habits.

Mind you I did laugh at the comments pasted under the article

Have a look at the Surrey Comet online - the heading is something about ex-Corrie star Johnny Briggs' daughter & granddaughter banned from every shop in Surrey

Here it is in the Mail.  Awful.

Holy shit. That mother and daughter look like something that crawled out of the gutter smiley-yikes . Truly horrific smiley-yikes . Jeremy Kyle will have his work cut out with these two smiley-biglaugh .

Banned from every shop in Surrey? They're very committed to their 'job', I'll give them that . What sort of mother introduces her 14 year old daughter to drugs?! Who on earth does that?! Wow.

Don't blame Johnny Briggs for disowning them, but he needs to realise his daughter has been led astray by the mother and get her help ASAP (whatever good that will do). The mother is too far gone and seemingly beyond help. They really do belong on Jeremy Kyle, let's leave it at that.

I cannot imagine the despair at seeing your child and her kid descending to this sort of level. TBH I think they are beyond the help of even Jeremy and his team of head-shrinkers - no wonder Johnny walked away, difficult as it must have been for him.

Cobham is fratefully POSH (that's where the Chelsea training grounds are situated)so having that pair of scaggy smackheads stealing their way around town is not going to go down too well either. Not that they worry about their shopping for food though - that much is obvious - I expect they have their own team of social workers doing all that for them so they can concentrate on being druggy assholes.

I imagine Briggs must have tried getting them help in the past, but they refused treatment or failed to kick their drug habit. For him to disown them probably means they are both too far gone, so you're probably right there, escargot.

I do, in a way, feel sorry for the daughter though; for your own mother to introduce you to drugs at such a young age - is it any wonder she's turned out the way she has? Parents are meant to be role models to their children, if we can't rely on them to set a good example, who the hell can we rely on?!

You never think celebrities could have such hellish, downtrodden family members like that. The money and glamour tricks us into thinking most celebs are these perfect people with perfect lives. Just goes to show, not all celebs are all that different from regular people.

I always knew those Baldwin ones were trouble. It's no good complaining now when I've been warning everyone of this for years.

I recall reading many years ago that Johnny`s daughter refused to let him visit his grand daughter. This was when his grand daughter was a very young girl.
It seems to me this is all his daughters doing. Introducing a 14 year old girl to drugs is unforgivable. Johnny should have taken his daughter to court and sued her for custody. His poor daughter never stood a chance with a junkie as a Mother
