    Dick Van Dyke was "locked up with the psychos" in rehab

    The Mary Poppins actor - who celebrates his 100th birthday on Saturday (13.12.25) - checked into a hospital to get sober in 1972 and admitted the facilities back then were nothing like the modern clinics of today.


    He said: "I remember going to rehab and it being nothing like today. In my day they used to lock you up with the psychos! Down in St Luke's, in Phoenix - they didn't have any special rehab place.
