He was joined on Centre Court by other stars at the tennis including fellow actor Charles Dance, broadcasting legend Sir Trevor McDonald and professional golfers Tommy Fleetwood, Justin Rose and Luke Donald.

Nine-time Wimbledon champion Martina Navratilova was also in attendance.

The celebrity spotting continued elsewhere around the grounds, with Ruth Langsford, Sara Davies and Joanne McNally enjoying the action from the Emirates suites.

Fresh from filming the final season of Emily in Paris, Paul Forman also made a stylish detour to SW19, joining guests in evian's exclusive Mountain of Youth Suite between takes.

There has been a star-studded turnout at the tennis tournament so far this week, with the likes of Sir David Beckham, Celia Imrie, Tess Daly, Ronan Keating and Mollie King making an appearance at the tournament.
