    I bet he wasn't expecting that. I certainly wasn't.

    The son of the Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour has been jailed for 16 months for going on a drink and drug-fuelled rampage at a student fees protest.

    Charlie Gilmour admitted violent disorder after joining thousands demonstrating in Trafalgar Square and Parliament Square in London last year.

    During a day of riots he was seen hanging from a union flag on the Cenotaph and leaping on to the bonnet of a Jaguar car that formed part of a royal convoy. He pleaded guilty in May to violent disorder and was warned by the judge Nicholas Price QC that he could face prison. "You must understand that your plea of guilty to violent disorder is a serious matter and it may be that the proper course would be one of immediate custody."

    Gilmour was found on Friday to have also hurled a rubbish bin at the vehicle.
