Joan Collins angered by airport search

Hollywood actress Joan Collins flew into a rage after airport security staff forced her to strip off items of clothing in front of other passengers, according to The Sun today.

Collins was asked to remove her hat, sunglasses, jacket and shoes at Heathrow Airport yesterday, as she queued up for a flight to LA.

The ex-Dynasty star apparently shouted, "Do you know who I am?" to the airport staff involved in the incident.

Later, Joan complained, "Of course I’m in favour of tight security. But to be singled out in front of the entire queue was frankly humiliating."

A spokeswoman for the airport said, "We regret she was upset by this routine security procedure."
