TELEVISION actress Honeysuckle Weeks has been found "safe and sound", according to her sister. 

Concerns were raised about the Foyle's War star after she went missing from a low-level psychiatric unit on Thursday night.

However, her sister, Perdita, tweeted shortly after 10pm tonight that the 36-year-old had been found "safe and sound", thanking followers.

Ms Weeks had been last seen in Graylingwell Drive, Chichester, West Sussex, at 9pm on Thursday and was reported missing an hour later.

Sussex police said her family and friends were alarmed by her disappearance as she had recently spoken to them about "feeling anxious" and it was unlike her not to be in touch with family.
