Driftwood Dave enjoys first taste of champagne as he ventures out of the shack that has been his home for 26 years | Mail Online

A real-life castaway who has spent the past 26 years living in a driftwood shack above one of Britain's remotest beaches has had a taste of the outside world - including his first ever sip of champagne.
David Burgess, 63 has lived a simple existence free of modern trappings in his coastline home since the 1980s.

He only uses material which has washed up on the shore and sleeps on a mattress of dried leaves under a blue tarpaulin every night.
