Depp, in a colourful Jamaican beanie hat and escorted by minders, signed autographs and posed for selfies at the O2 Apollo venue in Manchester.

The Pirates of the Caribbean actor, 58, joined ex-Yardbirds star Jeff Beck for four songs on Saturday.

He has been performing on his guitarist pal’s run of shows and is set to appear in Birmingham tonight and York tomorrow.

But Friday night’s gig at Glasgow’s Royal Concert Hall was repeatedly interrupted as people in the audience yelled “innocent, innocent” — with some fed-up Beck fans telling them to keep quiet.

Depp, who has also been seen at an animal sanctuary, was in Newcastle when the US court verdict was delivered last week.

Ex-wife Ms Heard plans to appeal. In 2020, Depp lost a libel case against The Sun as a judge ruled we were right to label him a wife-beater.
