I love Grotbags, Miriam is a national treasure!!!!!
ReplyWow…an amazing and unexpected guest. Well done! She’s an absolute legend and has great morals too. She takes no bullshit and hates rich evil heartless liars…the Conservstive government
ReplySeth managed to find the few Miriam stories acceptable on US television. Ask her about her work boosting troop morale on the home front in WW2!
Actually don’t. It will mostly be American censors, bleeping the best parts.
ReplyLove her
ReplyOhhhh goodness, she is such a gem!!!
ReplyThe story about the Queen story is the best example of absurd human behavior from one of the most dignified ladies of the realm. She may be ashamed of it, but she tells it truly and honestly. It really says quite a bit about the Queen, also.
ReplyWhat a lovely accent with which to describe a fart!
ReplyMiriam is awesome…and now I know what rictus means, ‘cuz I looked it up. Thanks Miriam!
ReplyNational treasure. Legendary recounter of filthy and hilarious tales: 60% of her chat is unfortuantely way too “fruity” for US TV!
ReplyMiss Margolyes looked like an educated boss lady compared to that pompous piddle-encrusted Elizabeth
ReplyI love Seth’s reaction to her and appreciate he didn’t interrupt her.
