Paul Mescal's comment about meeting Britian's King Charles has sparked a debate about modern sentiment towards the UK.
The Maynooth actor says meeting the English monarch wasn't on his "list of priorities," as the two were introduced at the premier of Gladiator 2.
Speaking to Variety magazine, Paul says it wasn't on his bingo card, but he was happy for film director, Ridley Scott, to share the encounter.
However, loyalist activist, Moore Holmes, says he thinks Irish people should be "thanking" the British empire.
