An Australian rambler has been jailed for 21 months for repeatedly walking around nude.

Stephen Gough - who had been attempting to walk around Britain naked - was arrested within seconds of being freed from jail for attempting to commit the exact same offence.

Gough has spent the majority of the past seven years in prison for 20 identical crimes.

The naturist - who refused to put clothes on during his court appearances - was found guilty of breaching the peace, and being in contempt of court.

Sheriff Lindsay Foulis warned Gough he faced spending the rest of his life behind bars.

But Gough, who denied being nude was a breach of the peace or an affront to the court, refused and was given his longest sentence to date.
