The Homes Under the Hammer star, 55, blamed medical conditions for the incident in Bath, Somerset, last November. Police believed Mr Roberts was driving without insurance when he was stopped and then suspected he was drunk. After refusing to be breathalysed he was taken to a police station and still didn't cooperate, so was charged, it was reported.

He was handed a 23 month driving ban, fined £3,461 and told to pay £930 costs and a £120 victim surcharge. A source told The Sun: 'He was protesting, saying that he couldn’t be breathalysed. But officers wouldn’t have it. 'They took him to the police station where he continued to refuse to co- operate so they charged him.' Mr Roberts, who is lodging an appeal against his conviction, also appeared on I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here in 2016 Solicitor Charles Knapper said his client, who appeared on ITV's I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here in 2016, said he was going to appeal the ruling. He said: 'Mr Roberts was convicted despite expert evidence that he suffers from medical conditions. 'He maintains he failed to give a sample only as a result of these conditions and is lodging an appeal.'
