BBC actor Reiss Jarvis was tragically killed in a crash after a speeding driver 'lost control' and crashed into a tree, an inquest has heard.
The 21-year-old actor is reported to have suffered multiple 'unsurvivable' injuries as a result of the smash in Delph, Oldham.
The young actor was in the front-seat passenger of a Mazda 3 when it swerved off the country road and hit a tree.
The car then plunged down an embankment.
Reiss, 21, was pronounced dead at the scene while the driver, Karl Young, was taken to hospital where he later died.
An inquest at Rochdale Coroner’s Court heard that Mr Young, 34, lost control of the car while driving at 'excessive speed' along unlit road at about 8.40pm.
The pair were returning to Oldham after visiting a fish shop in Marsden, West Yorkshire, on November 10 of last year.
After the crash, Mr Young - who was driving the car - was pulled from the vehicle and taken to hospital.
BBC actor Reiss died at the scene in Saddleworth.
Police Sergeant Neil Pennington of GMP's Serious Collision Investigation Unit told the hearing that analysis of the vehicle's airbag module showed the Mazda had been travelling at 110mph which is more than double the 50mph speed limit.
At the time the car hit the tree, it was travelling at 58mph, he told.
"At the speed they were driving at, if anything did happen or a loss of control were to occur, it would be very hard for them to regain control of that vehicle," PS Pennington told.
Reiss's cause of death was confirmed as 'multiple fatal injuries as a result of a road traffic collision', according to a post-mortem examination carried out by pathologist Dr Abdul Ganjifrockwala.
Mr Pennington also told there was no evidence to suggest any other vehicles were involved in the incident.
Reiss had previously worked as a TV actor.
The young star had appeared in the 2017 crime drama Murdered for Being Different, which is based on the murder of Sophie Lancaster in Bacup.
Reiss's heartbroken dad Darryl told the court that his son had auditioned for other roles, as well training as a barber as a 'fallback'.
Mr Jarvis described his son as 'the life and soul of the party'.
