The co-creator of the U.K. sitcom “Father Ted” was arrested at London Heathrow Airport on Monday allegedly over several social media posts criticizing transgender activists.

Graham Linehan recounted the ordeal on his Substack, saying there were signs of something strange happening before he landed in London.

According to the former comedy writer, a gate agent in the U.S. said he did not have a seat on his flight back home and needed to be issued a new ticket – something he didn’t think much of at the time. However, since the arrest, Linehan wrote on Substack that he believes he was flagged because “someone, somewhere, probably wearing unconvincing make-up” made a call.
