Potter star mobbed by Elijah fans

Daniel Radcliffe has revealed that Australian fans think he is Lord of the Rings hero Elijah Wood.

Daniel, who plays Harry Potter, said: "So often people shout out, 'Hey Frodo!' as they think I'm Elijah - who frankly is a very good-looking guy so I take it as a compliment.

"I admit when a couple of people have put autograph books under my nose I've signed them, 'Much love Elijah Wood'. It would be a bit deflating for me if I told the truth and they said, 'Don't bother signing it then'."

Daniel is currently in Australia filming December Boys. He plays an orphan fighting for his adoptive parents' attention in the film reports The Sun.
