Piers gets no kick from champagne

PIERS MORGAN tells us he’s “not really” enjoying going out because “long Covid” means he can’t taste or smell. The Londoner bumped into the presenter and his wife Celia Walden at the launch of Burlington Arcade’s James Bond installation ahead of next week’s much-delayed release of 007 movie No Time To Die. “I’ve had two sips of champagne and it tastes like rusty water,” Morgan sighed. He perked up when we asked if he’d have liked to have played Bond. “It’s not a long leap from Pierce Brosnan to Piers Morgan.” Maybe.
