Talking about Ross Kemp: Libya's Migrant Hell, the ex-EastEnders actor claimed that the level of the problem is unknown to many.

"The facts aren't the facts, and they're not alternative facts, we just don't know the facts. I think the facts are being conservative - we don't know how many people are dying," explained the 52-year-old.

However, viewers were less than impressed with what Ross was saying on the show, with one saying: "@SkyNews @RossKemp @skysarahjane he's trying to get an Audience for his Piffle."

Another posted: "@RossKemp on @SkyNews was pathetic. Sad little man trying to promote his programmes with lies. Another publicity seeking leftie luvvie."

Ross even replied to the second tweet, with him responding: "whatever your views, watch before you make a judgement. We can't deal with migrant crisis without understanding it."

The actor also revealed that he felt "guilty" whilst filming the show, saying: "I feel incredibly guilty. Aid organisations cannot get in there, it's too dangerous.

"Nothing really is being done to help people in that country - Libya is effectively in free fall."

Ross' documentary also looks at the growing sex trade that exists in the country and how young girls are entrapped in torturous situations.

He explained: "We estimate that 80% of women trafficked in [the South] are sent there to be sex slaves. These girls are incredible young, trapped there and so many of these girls were pregnant."

He added: "So many of them are being raped, tortured and killed."

The show sees Ross travel the gruelling seven day journey across the 1000 miles of Libyan desert, witnessing the horrific route for himself.

Express.co.uk has contacted Ross Kemp's management for a comment.

Ross Kemp: Libya's Migrant Hell will air tomorrow on Sky1 at 9pm.
