Billy Cole: Man behind Glasgow’s Willy Wonka-style event tells how life was ‘ruined’

The organizer of Glasgow’s infamous Willy Wonka-inspired experience has told how he lost the “love of his life” and had his life “ruined” by the incident.

Billy Cool said his life had been transformed due to the controversy surrounding the incident, claiming he was considered “the epitome of all evil”.

Mr Cool told the Channel 5 documentary Wonka: The Scandal That Shook Britain: “My life has been changed forever. My life is ruined.”

He added: “Because of everything that happened, it affected my personal life.

“I lost my friend. I lost the love of my life. I was made to represent all that was evil. And honestly, that’s not the case.”

Willy’s chocolate experience gained fame after pictures and videos were shared online.

The £35 experience at the city’s Box Hub venue is described as an “unprecedented chocolate fantasy” where “dreams become reality”.

Instead, the family was met in a nearly empty venue decorated with some Wonka-themed props and a small bouncy castle.
