He was first sent to South London’s HMP Wandsworth which he branded: ‘a s***-hole’

He was first sent to South London’s HMP Wandsworth — and yesterday branded it: “In plain English, a s***-hole. It’s a dangerous place.”

Becker was later moved to Huntercombe Prison in Nuffield, Oxfordshire, a jail for foreign nationals.

Boris said: “I was surrounded by murderers, drug dealers and people smugglers.

“They’re next door! At first, you’re scared, because this guy killed two people.

“He’s already doing 18 years. Imagine! He becomes your buddy.”

Boris is now back in Germany — and claimed Wimbledon want him back as a commentator.

He said: “I’m in contact with the guys and they want me back.”

A BBC spokesperson said: “Currently, we don’t have any plans to work with Boris.”
