Across the Universe star Jim Sturgess is desperate to get home to Britain to see if his house is still standing.

The actor is currently promoting new film One Day in the U.S. and footage from the London riots are making him nervous - because he lives close to one of the most violent areas.

He tells WENN, "I'm a bit worried... I've been speaking to my girlfriend, who's not in England either, and she's managed to keep updated daily on the news, so she has been texting me a few things that are going on. I want to go home to see what's happening and see if my house is alright."
