Adolescence star Faye Marsay has backed calls to prevent children under the age of 16 from having social media accounts.

The Game of Thrones star, who plays Detective Sergeant Misha Frank in the hit Netflix drama about a teenage boy accused of murdering a female classmate, has said that the UK should follow Australia’s landmark ban on social media for under-16s.
