Still Game star Ford Kiernan has been accused of making vulgar sexual remarks towards a female member of staff at a Glasgow bar.

The actor, 54, allegedly made comments that were "obscene and degrading" towards the girl at Shilling Brewery Company on a number of occasions.

Kiernan has also been charged with 'acting in a threatening or abusive manner by shouting and swearing' at the female - who cannot be named for legal reasons.

Kiernan, who plays Jack Jarvis in the hit BBC Scotland comedy, was not at the court on Thursday when the case called but was represented by Douglas McAllister.

Mr McAllister asked for the case to be continued without plea for a period of four weeks.

Procurator fiscal depute Alan McArthur told the court: "Mr McAllister spoke to me prior to the case calling, there's no objection."

Sheriff Lindsay Wood continued the case for four weeks without any plea and ordered Kiernan to appear at court for the next hearing.
