Publican Stephen Hollings yesterday recounted details of Nancy Cameron’s unfortunate adventure as Downing Street gave a full version of 'The Day The Prime Minister and His Wife Accidentally Left Their Daughter Behind In A Pub'.

Eldest child Nancy became separated from her parents after visiting the toilets as the family prepared to leave the village gastropub close to the Prime Minister’s country retreat, Chequers.

Mr and Mrs Cameron, who were travelling in separate cars, each believed Nancy was with the other and were 'distraught' to discover she was missing when they reached Chequers.

Yesterday, as the Camerons faced criticism over the blunder, Mr Hollings described the PM as 'a great father and genuine family man'.

Mr Hollings, the former husband of Carry On actress Barbara Windsor, said the family were regular visitors to his pub, The Plough at Cadsden, a Buckinghamshire hamlet a few miles from Chequers, and described the couple and their children as 'charming'.

He said: 'The Camerons had been sitting outside with two other family groups who seemed to be personal friends. Mr Cameron just had a pint of bitter and then they all left.

An insider at the pub added: 'I know there were a lot of children there that day but I still don’t quite understand how they lost their daughter in such a small pub and then drove off without her. You would have thought the security officers would do a head count.'

In a new biography, friends of Mr Cameron last month told how he enjoyed drinking 'three or four glasses of wine' over lunch at the weekend, while one source told the authors: 'If there was an Olympic gold medal for "chillaxing", the Prime Minister would win it.'

Mr Hollings yesterday denied any suggestion that Mr Cameron had more than a single drink.
