Health and safety chiefs have declared there is no case to answer following an injury on the set of the James Bond movie.
The Health And Safety Executive (HSE) decided earlier this month to “assess” the incident on the new 007 film, after a “controlled explosion” at Pinewood Studios left a worker with minor injuries.
But a spokesman for the regulator told the Press Association that the matter was now closed.

“After an initial assessment, we concluded there is no need for a formal investigation and we consider the matter closed,” he said.
During the incident, damage was also caused to the 007 stage.

It came after Bond star Daniel Craig was injured while filming in Jamaica last month and had to undergo “minor ankle surgery”.
He was recently snapped at the gym preparing for his 007 return.
The mishaps, as well as a change of director, have sparked suggestions that the movie could be “cursed”.
Cary Joji Fukunaga is directing the film, replacing Danny Boyle, who stepped away from the project last year following “creative differences”.
