Not in MY backyard

Pete Doherty
Feb 9, 2010 Updated Feb 10, 2010

The great British public have voted rock star Pete Doherty the country's least desirable celebrity neighbour.

The Babyshambles singer's infamous shindigs - that have left his homes filled with litter and covered in blood - pushed him to the top of the survey, carried out by property website Zoopla.

Coming in a close second to Doherty in the nightmare neighbours poll was troubled singer Amy Winehouse, while glamour model Katie Price - also known as Jordan - was the third least desirable neighbour.

The poll found that Britons would most like to share fences with Stephen Fry, Jamie Oliver or Top Gear's Jeremy Clarkson...unless any of the above were hosting a babyshambles gig, presumably...

Do YOU have any thoughts on who Australia's best and worst neighbours might be? Let us know.
