Ross Kemp says he was mistaken for a Peeping Tom while filming for a new TV series.

The actor was up a tree in West London with a camera filming a scene for the ITV1 thriller The Crooked Man.

But someone called the police, thinking he was spying on them, says The Sun.

Kemp said: "The police turned up and had to be told by the film unit manager that I am an actor - and not a Peeping Tom."

Ross plays a photographer who spies on public figures for MI5. He's caught in a corrupt web when he sees a politician tipped as a future PM killing his mistress.

Kemp also had to shoot scenes in a London crematorium at 3am. He said: "It was horrible. The place had been used earlier and the ovens were still hot."
