Game of Thrones actress Laura Pradelska has said she has had to bar people making comments on her social media because of antisemitic abuse she receives.

Speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live on Monday, Ms Pradelska, who is the grandchild of Holocaust survivors, said she has been forced to stop people commenting on her Instagram account.

In an interview with Emma Barnett, Ms Pradelska, who played Quaithe in the TV series, said: “You would be amazed at some of the comments I get.

“I must say that I have disabled my comments on my Instagram, simply because my skin wasn’t thick enough to take it.”
