Ronnie Wood has revealed that he once turned down an offer to play a part in US TV show CSI: Crime Scene Investigation.
The Rolling Stones guitarist, who is a big fan of the programme, was asked to appear as a safe cracker but he did not want to commit to too much hard work.
Wood told Virgin Radio: "They wanted me to be Uncle Ron the safe cracker.
"But I saw Roger Daltrey do a guest appearance - he said it was all too much. No time to rehearse and he had to play five parts. I said no, I didn't really want to go in like that."
But he admitted he would consider being in the show if they came to film in England, saying: "It would be interesting if they set one in London and I could be an old time safe cracker. That would be fun."
