Customers and staff at a restaurant in Weymouth were wowed and amazed when a Hollywood star popped in for a meal.

Canadian actor Dan Aykroyd, best known for playing Dr Raymond 'Ray' Stantz in Ghostbusters, popped in to Billy Winters Beach Bar and Diner on Saturday.

And in 1990, he was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his role as Boolie Werthan in Driving Miss Daisy.

Staff and customers took photos and chatted with the celebrity.

Georgia Southwell, duty manager at Billy Winters, has been a fan since she was a kid.

She said: "A lady rang a few days ago saying she was coming with a celebrity.

"I loved Ghostbusters since I was a kid so it was a dream come true.

"He was very down to earth and looked like he had a really nice time."

The comedian was also a band member of The Blues Brothers.

Georgia was thrilled when he sang her a quick rendition of 'Georgia on My Mind' by Ray Charles.

Before leaving he joined staff at Billy Winters for a picture outside on the beach.
