Hollywood actor Hugh Grant "spotted in Croyde" (THIS IS NORTH DEVON)

Celebrity spotters were heading to Croyde today after reports that Hollywood actor Hugh Grant was visiting the area.

The Four Weddings And A Funeral star was said to have spent time in The Thatch pub last night and at a local golf course this morning.

On Twitter Katy Williams posted yesterday: "Saw the rather dashing Hugh Grant in Braunton today, just casually milling around!"

Nikki Gimber tweeted today: "Eek Hugh Grant at golf club this morning!!" and Lauren Kirstie posted: "Hugh Grant was at The Thatch yesterday, if I was working I could've met him, but I wasn't, oh."

Another user said: "My family went into Croyde yesterday and met Hugh Grant, oh how I wish I'd gone."

But there were conflicting reports that people had been duped by a lookalike.

One tweet read: "Hugh Grant film double fools entire village."

And @croydesurfclub conceded that their tweet: "Just had a champagne breakfast with Hugh Grant, it was divine!!!" was a joke.
