Good Morning Britain host Adil Ray became raged during a heat-fuelled discussion regarding the UK governments plans to send asylum seekers to Rwanda on Thursday's episode (April 14).The 47-year-old TV personality was joined on the show by co-star Charlotte Hawkin's when he clashed with Broadcaster and guest of the show Cindy Yu over the situation.The two host's later invited Sonia Sodja to join the conversation and things really did turn tense at one point.Adil's cage seemed to become more rattled as the debate went on, with the host criticising Cindy's terminologies, adding that the "illegal refugees" narrative should be changed to "essentially desperate refugees".Cindy argued that last year it had been reported that over half of those deemed "illegal" were in fact legitimate asylum seekers.She said: "Yes, some of them will be economic migrants, but it was interesting because it was reported that over half of the claims last year were approved, over half of them are legitimate asylum seekers, so why are we not finding them safer methods?"Cindy commented: "I appreciate that channel crossing is not good, people smugglers, we shouldn't be offering people those options, but I'm not really sure Rwanda is the way forward."The broadcaster turned her attention to cost, explaining that the "government were not allowing them to contribute back" into the system.Bringing culture into the debate, Cindy urged: "There is a reason we treat Afghan refugees differently to Ukrainian refugees"."As someone who's come from China, culture does matter. "The similarity of culture that the UK has as a European country to Ukraine will matter in how we treat them," she hit back.

SUAVE actor Peter Bowles was Britain’s favourite toff – despite being the son of servants and growing up in modest circumstances. Peter, who died yesterday of cancer aged 85, shot to stardom as nouveau riche supermarket owner Richard DeVere in BBC sitcom To The Manor Born from 1979 to 1981.

The Good Life – Bowles had turned down the role taken in that series by Paul Eddington – this was his moment, and he seized it with relish. Thereafter, he appeared sporadically on the West End stage as an authentic leading player, and initiated, often as a co-deviser, or “original idea” supplier, a string of major television serials including Only When I Laugh (1979-82), in which he starred with James Bolam and Christopher Strauli as one of three troublesome hospital patients under the supervision of Richard Wilson’s irascible doctor; The Irish RM (1983-85), in which he played a tetchily disposed army major serving as a resident magistrate in Northern Ireland (“Bowles Saves Channel 4” ran one headline after it opened to rave reviews and large viewing figures); and Perfect Scoundrels (1990-92), with Bowles and Bryan Murray playing likable conmen, latter-day Robin Hoods choosing only deserving victims.
