Star Wars villain James Earl Jones has been voted the most trustworthy celebrity in a new poll - seeing off competition from Tom Hanks and Michael J. Fox.

Jones, who voiced Darth Vader in the epic sci-fi series, came top of the survey by Forbes magazine, which rated stars on trustworthiness, awareness and appeal.

The 79 year old topped the poll ahead of Hanks in second and Fox in third.

Forbes writer Lacey Rose says, "The stars on our list tend to be endearing characters on and off screen."
