His wife Laura posted a picture of him in a bed at Huntington Memorial Hospital, Pasadena, on Facebook.

"This is Laura here," she wrote in March.

"Now that his family have been informed, Jim has asked me to let you all know that he was involved in a serious car accident yesterday, a head-on collision.

"He's currently in ICU intensive care. He's had two blood transfusions so far and is about to go in for his first surgery.

"This is for real, not a movie role. Please hold some good thoughts for him as he fights his way out of this."

The actor was reunited with his dog while recovering in hospital.

The Essex-born actor spends most of his time in Los Angeles.

He also co-wrote and starred in the Bafta-winning ITV series The Sketch Show.
