A brazen line of questioning from BritishAustralian actress Miriam Margolyes led to her calling for a Gaza ceasefire live on television.

Host Waleed Aly told the 82yearold: "So, I’m Egyptian, which is in Africa, so what do you wanna call that?"

She said: "Well, lucky. Because I like Egyptian people. I’m on the side of the Palestinians I have to tell you that now.

“Because being Jewish, we always have to say what we are. Are we for Israel or against Israel? I’m only for humanity. Ceasefire. Ceasefire,” she said, to applause from the studio audience.
