Tue 25 Sep 12:20 PM

The Queen star Helen Mirren has revealed that she took LSD once in her twenties and found it "fantastic", if terrifying.

"I had the most wonderful time on it," said the 62-year-old, "partly because my good friend came up to me just as the world was refracting and said: 'Don't worry, Hel, it's gonna be fine. Just let go and enjoy it and it will be fine,' and I did.

"He sort of saved me and I had a fantastic time. But it's too much, too much."

Tut tut. What would 'maam' say?
