It's going to be a blue Christmas for the Babyshambles frontman...

Following his arrest on Monday (December 21), Pete Doherty has been officially charged with heroin possession.

As Xfm reported yesterday, the Babyshambles man was arrested at Gloucester Crown Court following his appearance on another charge. Having narrowly escaped a prison sentence for careless and drunk driving, Doherty was taken into custody by police, who saw something drop from his pocket as he left the court.

He was bailed and is due to re-appear in court on January 27.
