Daniel Craig and Dame Judi Dench have signed an open letter to the Prime Minister calling on him to protect the BBC from cuts to its service. More than 30 actors, presenters and writers have added their signatures to the appeal.

The letter reads:

"A diminished BBC would simply mean a diminished Britain. Like all organisations, it has its faults but it is overwhelmingly a creative force for good."

Downing Street confirmed it has received the celebrities' letter.
