"There won't be any more parties for my daughters" - Rebecca Brooks who had to clear 2,000 revellers from her Devon home.

When Sarah Brooks decided to host her 18th birthday party at home, she could hardly have expected it to make national news. But after advertising the party with a poster at her college, and also on the internet, up to 2,000 teenagers turned up and started trashing the large house in Bovey Tracey, Devon. Her mother, Rebecca, says the ´óÏó´«Ã½ should take some of the blame after Radio One DJ Pete Tong did a "shout out" for the party. The ´óÏó´«Ã½ says Tong didn't give the address of the venue. In fact, a transcript of the shout out reveals he didn't even repeat the name of the village correctly, saying: "We're getting ready for a huge mansion party - 500 plus people going - it's in Bovey. Tracey in Devon tipping us off on that."
