Miriam Margolyes suggested a woman who wanted to start dating men again should join Grindr, before she learned it was a gay dating site.
The 81-year-old appeared on This Morning to answer calls from the public and offer advice on any queries they had including dating.
One caller, Leanne, said she was plus-sized and anxious about looking for love again, Miriam went on to offer her thoughts and Phillip Schofield ended up apologising for Miriam’s “Dickensian advice.”
