In a scene right out of the movie The Terminal a man has been living in one of the London airports. Unlike the movies, this story does not, at least not yet, have a happy ending.
A homeless chef was locked up today after making Gatwick airport his home for THREE years.
“Cheeky” Anthony Delaney ate, showered and slept at the busy airport, brushing off security staff who stopped him more then 30 times.
He told his lawyers he was happier staying there because he was “clean, dry and warm”.
In fact he rarely left the busy south terminal, popping out only occasionally to collect his Jobseeker’s Allowance, the court was told.
In scenes reminiscent of the Steven Spielberg movie The Terminal, Delaney passed his days watching holidaymakers and airline staff going about their business.
A court was told he did not suffer mental health problems, was neither a drug nor alcohol addict, and did not cause “a stink”.
