Paul Gascoigne has told the BBC he's was glad to be told he was an alcoholic.

In a wide-ranging interview, he says he's lost out on work because of "horrendous" lies in the press but is "in a good place".

A film about the former England international's life was shown in cinemas nationally last night.

He's been speaking to BBC's Kelly Cates.
