Radio presenter Andy Kershaw has been jailed for three months following those previously reported incidents where he broke a restraining order that prevented him from contacting his former partner. Kershaw pleaded guilty to the offence at the High Baliff's Court on the Isle Of Man, where he and his ex both live. Passing the sentence, High Bailiff Michael Moyle told the BBC DJ he seemed "hell-bent" on destroying himself. He added: "I regret that I feel I have no obligation other than to impose custody". The restraining order will also stay in place. Kershaw has already spent a few days in jail in relation to the case - he was jailed late last year after breaking a court enforced curfew. Kershaw blames his actions on alcohol dependency, something he says he is trying to fight.
