Saatchi repeatedly takes new date to same restaurant he infamously held ex's throat

Charles Saatchi and TV stylist Trinny Woodall looked decidedly cosy as they joined one another for a dinner date this week.
The pair visited Scott's on Monday evening, the same London restaurant where the 70-year-old advertising tycoon and art collector was caught holding his ex-wife Nigella Lawson by the throat three months ago.
It is the third time the pair have met for a dinner date in the past two weeks, each time sitting on the same terrace where he and Miss Lawson were infamously pictured arguing in June.
Mr Saatchi, who has a personal fortune of £130m, looked relaxed as he drank wine and smoked cigarettes with the 49-year-old presenter and a male friend.
Following the meal, the pair left the Mayfair restaurant separately, before Miss Woodall then picked Mr Saatchi up in the back of her car and drove the short distance to his Chelsea mansion.
Miss Woodall, who was wearing a large ring on her engagement finger, then stayed at the house until 6am, before driving to her nearby west London home.
Mr Saatchi's ten-year marriage to Miss Lawson ended earlier this month just weeks after they had a heated row which saw him grabbing his wife's throat during a visit to Scott's.
Mr Saatchi – who initially described the incident as a 'playful tiff' – accepted a police caution for assault.
But Miss Lawson launched divorce proceedings eight weeks later on the grounds of his 'unreasonable behaviour'.
The couple's marriage was effectively ended in a hearing which lasted just 70 seconds in July.
The meetings with Miss Woodall, who famously presented BBC makeover show What Not to Wear, were said to have been arranged by his friends, who are keen to help the businessman recover from his divorce.
Miss Woodall's marriage to businessman Johnny Elichaoff, 53, ended in 2008 after 10 years and she split up with her Italian boyfriend Stefano Bonfiglio at Christmas.
Miss Lawson is in Los Angeles where she is filming The Taste - a U.S. cookery competition which she judges.
