She's currently starring as DCI Roz Huntley in BBC drama Line Of Duty.

But Thandie Newton put her police uniform away as she attended the BFI & Radio Times TV Festival in London on Saturday.

The 44-year-old actress put on an elegant display in a black and white midi dress as she arrived at the event at the Southbank.

With its puffball sleeves and a bold monochrome design, the unusual gown showed off her slender frame, with the hemline finishing just above the ankles.

Keeping her accessories minimal, Thandie complemented the sophisticated number with a pair of strappy black heels, before adding pearl drop earrings.

Wearing her long tresses tied off her face in a high pony tail, she accentuated her flawless complexion with a dash of blusher.

The Westworld star finished off the glamorous make-up look with a rouge lipstick, a subtle smoky eye and lashings of mascara.

Thandie, who has joined the cast of Line Of Duty for its fourth series, recently gushed over her co-star Vicky McClure, who plays DS Kate Fleming in the drama.

Taking to Twitter during a recent episode, she wrote: 'I love me some Vicky McClure!'

As she watched DS Fleming attend a crime scene in a disposable boiler suit, the BAFTA-winner joked: 'Of course @VickyMcClure still looks hot in a white hooded onesie!'

Seemingly equally enamoured with her castmate, The Replacement actress responded: 'Love you @thandienewton you are creating quite a stir!'

Thandie also stars as Maeve Millay in HBO drama Westworld, which is set to return to our screens next year.
