She plays a Queen in her new TV show, and Elizabeth Hurley certainly looked regal as she arrived at the UK premiere for her new drama The Royals on Tuesday night.

The 49-year-old actress stole the spotlight on the union jack carpet laid out at London's Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park hotel in the centre of London.

Liz, who plays Queen Helena in the debauched spin on the Royal family, bought her 12-year-old son Damian as her date for her big night.

The British actress left her London house in a chic furry coat earlier in the evening, keeping her show-stopping dress firmly under wraps.

But as she arrived at the premiere, her fitted frock made sure the star's golden tan and toned limbs were on full display, with the dress featuring some cut-out detail on the side.

Liz paired her racy number with some strappy gold heels and some drop earrings.
