Harry Potter's Miriam Margolyes will not face an Ofcom investigation after wishing Boris Johnson dead. The Harry Potter star, 78, faced serious backlash after she insisted she wanted the Prime Minister to die from coronavirus.
Her insensitive comments on the Channel 4’s The Last Leg sparked fury from viewers. Miriam's remark received over 500 complaints from disgusted and shocked spectators who took to Twitter at the time to voice their thoughts on her controversial outburst.
Her untimely remark proved particularly offensive due to the fact Johnson was struck down with the killer bug in April. The leader remained in intensive care for several days but thankfully made a full recovery, unlike many civilians across the UK.
