Peaches, —who has always denied using cocaine like her tragic mum Paula Yates—was found by cops on the SAME video in which Winehouse, 24, was caught snorting crack.
As the secret video camera whirrs, she hands a drugs pusher up to £190 and says: “I’m going to need Valium tomorrow after this.”
It is the moment the 19-year-old celeb is seen for the first time chillingly plunging headlong into the dark world that engulfed her mother.
Peaches is to be QUIZZED by POLICE this week over the shock scenes.
And the video footage will come as a hammer blow to Peaches’ dad Sir Bob who has said he would “go f*****g ballistic” if his daughter sets off down the same drugs road that killed her mum.
Detectives found the clip of Peaches on a PC memory stick containing the Winehouse scenes which hit the headlines in January.
Cops had seized it from couple Jonny Blagrove and Cara Burton as part of their investigation into what police suspect is a celebrity drugs empire run by the pair.
We can reveal the unpublished footage shows Blagrove and Burton in a car heading off for a meeting with Peaches.

The secret camera picks up the couple talking to the beauty, who is clutching £140 in her hand. Then Blagrove tells her the deal will cost her £190.
Peaches is seen agreeing to this—and then telling the couple she will need Valium the next day. It’s common practice for drug takers to use the tranquilliser to help them “come down” from a drugs binge.
The News of the World has discovered the Peaches footage was shot THE DAY BEFORE Blagrove filmed Winehouse smoking crack in a set-up at her home.
TRAGIC: Drugs killed mum Paula
Tormented Amy, 24, is seen taking hit after hit of the deadly drug after a 19-minute binge in which she snorted powdered ecstasy and cocaine.
Cops believe scruffy Londoner Blagrove and his girlfriend wanted to use the Peaches video in a different sting. A source said: “Someone had tried to delete the footage from the stick but officers were able to recover it.”
As well as the Peaches scenes they also uncovered another TWO HOURS of footage of Winehouse.
They then arrested Blagrove and Burton and found a long list of names and numbers of their alleged celebrity clients after searching the couple’s east London home.
The couple were bailed and are set to return to the police station for further questioning this month.
Police have already quizzed Winehouse in a two-hour interview in February over the video and grilled her about her connections with Blagrove.
Now detectives want to hear Peaches’ version of events.
A police source said: “She will be interviewed some time this week and asked to explain what is happening in the video and why she is handing money over to the couple.
“It is all part of a large investigation into alleged drugs dealing.”
The existence of the secret video will come as a shock to Peaches, who did not know she was being targeted by the cunning pair.
Despite her many claims to be clean-living, rumours have been rife that the party girl has indulged in drugs. Her mum Paula died from a heroin overdose in 2000 aged 40 after the suicide of her INXS star lover Michael Hutchence.
Peaches has often been likened to her tragic TV presenter mother in her prime—inheriting her sexy looks and outrageous fashion sense.
She has even followed a similar career path to wild party-loving Paula, who started out as a music journalist before fronting smash Eighties TV pop series The Tube and shows on British people’s sex lives.
LATEST: Peaches with Faris Badwan
Proud Peaches has also produced and written TV documentaries for Sky One about teen sex and angst problems. She has reported for ITV1’s Tonight With Trevor McDonald and is about to front a show on a satellite TV channel.
Last year the teen beauty mirrored her mother’s modelling success. when she made her catwalk debut for PPQ at London Fashion Week, before landing a deal as the face of the Australian fashion line Dotti.
Like her mother, Peaches also loves the company of controversial musicians. Paula hung out with Duran Duran, Spandau Ballet and Sir Bob’s Boomtown Rats in her youth.
The tattooed beauty is also a regular at the capital’s indie clubs, enjoying close friendships with bands like The Horrors and Towers Of London. She is now dating Horrors frontman Faris Badwan. Yates started dating Live Aid creator Geldof when she was 17.
Peaches loves being compared to her mother—but has always insisted the comparison ends when it comes to the drugs problems that killed her.
On her TV show Teenage Mind she once said: “Teenagers today have nothing to rebel against. They are rebelling in taking drugs and drinking and partying and not really changing anything.
“They’re not really making a mark on society and I think that’s wrong.”
But in April 2006 at just 17 Peaches—who rakes in £200,000 a year working with friend Fifi Brow as a DJ-ing duo known as Trash Pussies—was pictured at a garage party using a “bullet”, a makeshift device usually used to inhale cocaine.
She denied the allegations, claiming: “That’s a picture of someone lighting up a roll-up cigarette. But the perspective is that it looks like something else. It was just pathetic.
“I’ve never done coke. My friends do drugs but I would never use them. This is really upsetting for me.
“I’m not stupid. Why would I do that in front of a camera, for a start? I’ve spoken to Dad and he’s very upset, but he’s supporting me.”
Leaving club with pal Nick Grimshaw
Her 55-year-old father stood by her, insisting: “If she went off the track I would go f*****g ballistic. She’s a pain in the a*** sometimes like all kids, but she’s all right. She is a 17-year-old girl who did well in her AS-levels.
“She is allowed to go to no more parties than other kids. If I honestly thought she was doing anything I should be concerned about, I would go f*****g berserk.”
Like her famous dad, Peaches’ mouth has landed her in trouble and feuds with a string of stars, including Kelly Osbourne and Lily Allen. Former druggie Osbourne reckons she is “fame-hungry” after a series of run-ins at London nightspots.
And furious singer Allen spat at Peaches at last year’s V Festival, when the DJ labelled her a “c***head.” But revelations of her drugs probe will plunge her into the deepest trouble she’s been in so far in her wild young life.
Last night the News of the World confronted the man who trapped Peaches on video at his home in east London—close to the home of druggie Pete Doherty.
Rugged Blagrove is good friends with Amy Winehouse’s jailed husband Blake Fielder-Civil.
Blagrove parades around the area in skinny tight jeans and vest tops whenever he leaves his house to run errands in the neighbourhood.
A source said: "Jonny is very much a man-about-town. When he walks he has a swagger which lets everyone know how brash he is.”
When we asked if he sold drugs to Peaches he wasn’t so brash. He said: “No, no, no. That is absolute rubbish, absolute garbage.
“I don't know where you got your information from. If that gets printed I’ll have something to say about it.
"You've got to make sure the facts are right and backed up. Believe me mate, I know the game.”
He added: “I'm denying all fact, to be honest.”
When asked if he and his girlfriend had been arrested he said: "No, no, no. That is absolute bulls***t.”
A spokesman for Scotland Yard later told us: “A 34-year-old man and a 22-year-old woman were both arrested on March 4, 2008, and have been bailed to return for further questioning to a date in May.
“The 34-year-old man was arrested in connection with an investigation into the supply of a controlled drug.
“The 22-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to supply Class A drugs and money laundering.”
