An 82-year-old woman was thrown off a luxury cruise for disruptive behaviour after protesting that she had been the victim of antisemitism.
Broadway producer Gloria Sher Evans was expelled from Cunard's flagship Queen Mary 2 only days into a month-long trip to Britain and the Mediterranean.
Her husband, 91-year-old former Royal Navy medical man Frederick Evans, said: "It was the second night of the cruise. We were in one of the dining rooms at a table with other people. This man was talking and he told Gloria to shut up.
"Then he said: 'Don't you see I'm talking? There's too many f****** Jews.' Gloria said to him: 'you should go f*** yourself' and then she walked out.
I apologised to the people and said to the man: 'Incidentally I'm not a Jew and you're not much of a diplomat'. The next thing we knew, the captain came to our cabin and said my wife had to leave the ship - only her, not me, but of course I wasn't going to stay without her."
