THOMAS Plimmer had the world at his feet after graduating from Cambridge University and qualifying as a doctor.
Good looking, well paid and with a silver tongue, he was able to easily charm attractive women.
But his sexual cravings led him into a dark world of endless cheating, prostitutes and even making porn films.
He grew up working class in Dudley, West Midlands, excelled at school, and read pathology then medicine.
But he was plagued by lying and sex addiction, which he even wrote about in a book.
From tongue scraping to saying no, here are 12 health trends to try in 2023
In the book, which he gave to some of his girlfriends and lovers to “explain his behaviour”, he said: “Lying is me, has been my way of life and has woven itself into my being.
"Each day I would not be surprised if I spent more minutes telling lies, or versions of the truth, than I actually did the truth.”
And talking of cheating on two women at the same time, he wrote: “I was putting these women’s sexual health at risk, and my own, as I was having unprotected sex with both of them at the same time.”
In one passage he admitted paying for sex “about twenty-five times at a cost of over £3,000.”
In another Plimmer revelled in the power he derived from being a doctor.
He said: “My ego loves the status of being a doctor.
"I have based my whole identity around being a doctor and, sometimes, in a very warped way.
In 2018, Plimmer was filmed for Channel 4’s First Dates but it never aired, with him saying his work put him under pressure to pull out of it.
In footage from the show, he shared a joke with his TV date, telling her he was a GP before asking her “do you have a rash that needs looking at?”
He then admitted to being unfaithful, saying: “Have I ever cheated I think was your question - and the answer is yes I have.”

The brunette responded: “Oh brilliant, I was really hoping for a cheater.”
