CHARGES have been dropped against an actor who was arrested while filming on the set of Rivals.

Nigel Adams, 45, from Weston-super-Mare was detained by officers from Avon and Somerset Police at Berkeley Castle in Gloucestershire last month. He was later charged with assault occasioning actual bodily harm against his long-term partner Louise Payne in an incident on March 31 this year.

Mr Adams and Ms Payne attended Bristol Crown Court yesterday morning for a plea and trial preparation hearing. The actor, from Weston-super-Mare, pleaded not guilty to the charge.
