'This Morning' presenter Fern Britton has blamed male bankers for the global financial crisis.
Speaking on BBC One's 'Question Time' on Thursday night, Britton said: "It seems to the majority of people, that we who have families and mortgages and all of those things, we knew that spending was too much.
"We knew that credit was being offered willy nilly, we knew that money was suddenly very cheap to borrow.
"I'm going to be very sexist here, but it appears that a lot of men have been in on this money business and they have made a very bad fist of it.
"If there were some women doing some old fashioned housework, if there was the old fashioned housekeeping where women are traditionally pretty good at making sure the money goes in the pot for electricity and the phone and the whatever - we didn't pillage and rob it and stick it all on a horse to see if the money would come in next week which it clearly hasn't - when we put all that money into the banks and we see nothing coming back."
During the programme Britton also gave her views on access to university places, the London 2012 Olympics and binge drinking.
