A 21-year-old man appeared in court on Tuesday charged with the murder of teenage actor Rob Knox.

Knox was stabbed during a fight outside a pub in Sidcup, Kent, on Saturday morning that left three of his friends with serious knife wounds.

The 18-year-old had a small part in the forthcoming film "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince".

Karl Bishop, unemployed, of Sidcup, appeared at Bexleyheath Magistrates' Court charged with murder and wounding five other people.

He was remanded in custody until his next court appearance at the Old Bailey on September 2.
