LOCK, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels star Jason Flemyng has been banned from driving after being caught speeding — at 24mph.
The 58-year-old was pinged in a 20mph zone in his Kia Sorento.

It was the fourth time Flemyng had been caught speeding in the past year.
He already had 12 points on his licence but had not been banned because of a justice system administrative error.
The actor admitted speeding near his home in Clapham, South West London, on December 5.
He was banned for six months and fined £775.
He told Lavender Hill JPs: “I don’t want to waste the court’s time. I accept what has happened.”
Asked whether he wanted to claim exceptional hardship, the actor, wearing a black suit, said: “Well, my work and what I do for a living, and my charity work, all depend on me driving.
“Maybe I should have thought about that before I drove 24mph in a 20mph zone.”
Flemyng played Tom in Guy Ritchie’s Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and has appeared in Snatch and From Hell with Johnny Depp.
In 2009, the actor joined the cast of the ITV science fiction cult drama series Primeval during its third series, as maverick ex-policeman Danny Quinn and he reprised the role in 2011.
He has been married to actress and producer Elly Fairman since 2007, best known for Blitz, and has also starred in BBC drama series Casualty.
