You'll forgive the slight tardiness of this Winegums report; the mule I employed to bring me Amy news while I was on a long-weekend holiday got stuck in a ditch and had to be airlifted back to Melbourne.

In any case, Blake Fielder-Civil has (wisely) pleaded guilty to perverting the course of justice and grevious bodily harm - charges that he had previously denied.

This means we could be seeing an awful lot less of him (and an awful lot more of Winegums' daft "<3 BLAKE" badge and hair-clip, natch):

Fielder-Civil, 26, of Camden, North London, admitted causing grevious bodily harm to James King, 36, of the Macbeth pub in Hoxton, north London, last summer.

The reporting restrictions also covered the allegation that Mr King could have been subjected to intimidation or duress.

Both causing grevious bodily harm and perverting the course of justice carry a maximum sentence of life in jail - although a British court has never given a sentence of more than 10 years for the latter.

Amy is said to be desperately worried that Blake, who she married in Miami last year after a stormy relationship, will receive a long jail sentence.

Hmm, not sure where to place my bets on this one - when he was initially locked up, it looked like Amy was really getting her shit together; now, not so much.

Those crazy kids!
