Police are appealing for information after the actress Honeysuckle Weeks was reported missing.

Ms Weeks is best known for her role as Samantha Stewart in the ITV wartime drama Foyle's War.

A spokesperson for Sussex Police said Ms Weeks, 36, was last seen in Chichester at 9pm on Thursday evening. In a statement, Detective Kate Witt said she was reported missing at 10pm. Ms Weeks is described as around 5ft 4in, with cropped red-blonde hair. She was last seen wearing a blue anorak and faded blue jeans.

“We are concerned about Honeysuckle as her recent behaviour has concerned family and friends and she has expressed to them she is feeling anxious," Detective Witts said. “Although she travels around a lot and has links in London and has family in Wiltshire, it is unlike her not to be in touch with family.

“If you read this Honeysuckle, please get in touch to let us know you are OK.”

Anyone with information is asked to contact Sussex police by calling101 or tweeting @sussex.pnn.police.uk.
