Our story about Johnny Depp being seen in the New Forest has caused quite a stir in the area.

The Forest is buzzing with rumours.

Take a look at out video as we go on the track of Jack Sparrow.

He has been spotted drinking in local pubs, eating in restaurants and it is rumoured that he wants to enrol his children at a local school.

He was even spotted at the perfume counter of a well-known department store.

But the big question is - where's Johnny?

Rumours that Hollywood actor Johnny Depp has taken up residence in Lymington have been floating around the Georgian town for months.

I saw the Johnny Depp lookalike at Moors Valley Country Park yesterday. He did really look like Jack Sparrow with his beard in braids as in Pirates of the Carriabean but wouldn't go as far as to say it was him.

Well, A friend of a friend, she works behind the bar at the Chequers Inn, Chequers Green in Lymington and she served him, also someone in John Lewis, West Quay served him also, hence the perfume counter. I was told about Chequers last september, in future i will give you info earlier.

the first comment says he was all dressed up as jack sparrow, surely the real johnny depp wouldnt go running around as captain jack sparrow for nothing? its probably just a lookalike causing mayhem.

i think you should leave johnny alone if he wants to be found then fare enough but it doesnt look so. just coz iam fan doesnt mean we all have to follow the poor guy around coz its not fare.

Why can't you see that it's just a laugh? You monkeys who criticise would be the first idiots to go crazy if he made himself known. Just enjoy what's supposed to be a bit of fun.

Just writing to say that I really wish his daughter Lily-Rose a full recovery and I hope she is better soon as she has been described as 'seriously ill' over the last 11 days in an English hospital.

My prays go out to Johnny & his family about his daughter Lily-Rose. I do wish her well. I am a great fan of his, I have our TV room done in POTC with a 6ft poster of Johnny as the center piece. But I do have on question I heard about a year ago Johnny & his partner had gotten married, I was so happy for him. But with news of his daughter being sick they refer to Lily-Roses parents as Johnny & his partner. Did they get married or not. Thanks
