Miriam Margolyes OBE is renowned for her acting career spanning over five decades, but it is her inimitable sense of humour that has earned her a special place in the hearts of audiences worldwide. Miriam was the voice of the Cadbury’s caramel bunny in 1990, won a BAFTA for her role in The Age of Innocence in 1994 and portrayed Professor Sprout in the Harry Potter franchise.
This episode is a hilarious glimpse into the incredible life of Miriam Margolyes. She discusses her Vogue cover shoot, why she lives with housemates rather than her partner and what it was like having dinner in Sandringham.
This episode was released in November 2023 to celebrate the release of her new book, Oh Miriam! Stories from an Extraordinary Life, and is out now.
