I live here in Auckland now but used to work at a sound studio in London called Magmasters, Miriam used to come in to do awesome voiceovers for films and commercials. Everyone loved her and looked forward to her grand entrance. She's awesome! She had the best potty mouth, which gave us immense joy and laughter. She's an amazing, talented actress with a great sense of humor. It's been really lovely to see her do so well and be so loved around the world. She's brilliant 😁
Ha! Kiwi in LA 30yrs and I used to be part of her commercial and v/o team here in LA, everything you said is dead-on, she is a phenomenal woman :) You can imagine what a kick I'm getting out of seeing her embrace Aotearoa/NZ's culture!!!
What a wonderful woman Miriam is, she really wants to understand where other people are coming from and despite having different beliefs and attitudes there is no judgement, very special.
I have watched and loved Miriam for years, she is irreverent and shockingly hilarious. In this she shows she is also respectful, so thoughtful and generous. 😊
Thankyou Miriam for travelling through this beautiful country which is home. I am a 4th generation Kiwi born and bred in Wellington and am looking forward to seeing your trip around the South Island.
I love the way she interacts with everyone...funny the principal told her " your ancestors came"...when Miriam is not British at all ...she is European jewish.
I saw Miriam in 'Dickens Women', a one woman show in Hamilton, NZ years ago. Has she forgotten? She was incredible! Switched between characters and accents like lightning. Utterly captivating brilliance, causing you to drop into sympathy with each character as well. I had never seem live acting like it!
Her and Barry Humfrey very similar in style , skill and artistic ability . (That was before he took on the dame Edna persona road ) . Watched him for 3 hours in Melbourne switch from one subject or character to the next , had us totally captivated just like Miriam who can hypnotise an audience with her brilliance . Barry is now gone (but never forgotten ) , may we treasure her while she is still with us. I’m 80 so no disrespect meant re your age Miriam .
I remember this choise lady from theater plays on nz TV back in the day. Always remember her as the nurse in romeo and juliet 1996. Leo di cap and Claire danes. Glad she visit our shores.
As a kiwi, it's difficult to describe the feeling inside during a haka. It's like a busting desire to join in. Like trying not to sing along to your favourite song.
It's called the Kiwi "number 8 wire mentality " which meant you could just about fix anything with a piece of number 8 (fencing) wire. We noticed that mentality has sadly declined, particularly since 2020 😔
🤔You do an amazing job,💕getting to the heart of people.🥰Absolutely love watching👀 your interactions 👍while learning about👍 how things are done!🥰You have the most 🫶enquiring thoughts.🥰You do a fantastic 💕job in your travelling 👍journey around places.🥰Bloody brilliant!💋💋💋💋💋💋💋
"how do you do, miss river"..........."the fire of the faith, how it consumes them"........."kapahaka"........"strength of kiwi women"............ ok where is episode 2?
We are catholics (not practicing ) my name is Esther and my uncle was Isaac.. and Miriam is also a very popular name ..also Miryam.My grandmother loved biblical names.
“You do whatever the hell it takes to survive” …..including crime? Is that what that lady thinks is acceptable? We may as well live in the jungle then.
The Rangatira (Chiefs) only agreed for the colonisers to govern their own unruly visitors who were breaching and transgressing all manner of Māori lore (laws). They had become a major problem, but the Chiefs NEVER CEDED THEIR SOVEREIGNTY OVER AOTEROA NZ LANDS. Bearing in mind at that time, for every Pākehā settler there were 10,000 Māori and so it is highly improbable that Māori would GIVE OVER ALL GOVERNORSHIP to people they outnumbered by so many. It's illogical, but that is typical of coloniser history.

Never start a program like this in a different country like this program. You are not in the middle east, Russia, China, North Korea. This australia and NZ. You are not going to be slaughtered by starting your program in the country you are visiting. However you are disrespecting that country by engaging another country first. Appalling! Someone like you, editors and producers should know this and all of you come off inconsiderate and have poor judgement. Do your homework better in future.
1500 is huge when you think of Nz's population boom since 2012. Let alone just the population concentration in itself. Please bring less immigrants so we can bring more refugees which to me are different things.

I'm impressed with her ripping around our roads in her van! Especially Auckland traffic. Well done her.
You are a beautiful soul welcome to Aotearoa New Zealand.

Miriam Margolyes is a world wide legend. Period! Maybe more for adults. 😂. ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Miriam!
What a wonderful woman Miriam is, she really wants to understand where other people are coming from and despite having different beliefs and attitudes there is no judgement, very special.
And she says it all so nicely 😆😆
I have watched and loved Miriam for years, she is irreverent and shockingly hilarious. In this she shows she is also respectful, so thoughtful and generous. 😊
So love her tripping around...especially Marae, Nuns, and Hobbiton ♥ Thank you

By the way, Miriam is visiting New Zealand
