New Zealand: Police are hoping that wanted posters featuring a photo of Robbie Coltrane will help them catch a teenage burglar.
Officers say the British actor is not a suspect but that the serial thief is a 16-year-old lookalike of the 58-year-old star.

• France: Campaigners are trying to stop a child bullfighter from performing, saying he is risking his life.

Local authorities have cancelled two recent shows where Michelito Lagravere, 10, was to appear, but others have gone ahead.

The Australian police poster calls him "the English actor". (Oops did I call them Australian - same thing though isn't it?) Pity that the EEN couldn't give his true nationality!

Kiwis are familiar with Robbie Coltrane. we're getting re-runs of early Cracker episodes on our "UK TV" Channel.
Still doesn't look like a teenager.
Should probably use the old fairy liquid motorbike ad instead. Mind you even then he didnae look very young either. In fact I think he was born when he was 40.
