Veteran rock star Sir Rod Stewart has apologised for the offence caused by his recent ‘Islamic State-style execution’ video filmed in a desert, claiming that he was actually re-creating a scene from ‘Game of Thrones’.

The 72 year old was seen in a since-removed video on his wife Penny Lancaster’s Instagram account pretending to slit the throat of a companion, who was positioned kneeling in front of him, on a sand dune in Abu Dhabi.
