Status Quo star Rick Parfitt has revealed he used a "double" for some scenes in his movie debut - who is actually black.

Despite his entirely different skin colour, the film crew simply popped on a wig to give the impression it was the veteran rocker. However the band failed to get his name and want him to get in touch so they can give him a copy of the film.
