  • With her trademark humour and unique perspective, Miriam Margolyes was live on Zoom, reflecting on her extraordinary career, the iconic roles and hilarious TV appearances that have made her one of the best loved actors and personalities of the day.
    Miriam’s credits include her magical performance as Professor Sprout in the Harry Potter film series, her unforgettable portrayal of Nurse in Romeo + Juliet and her BAFTA-winning take on Mrs Mingott in The Age of Innocence, as well as many of her iconic stage performances and documentaries.
    Miriam is interviewed by novelist, critic and co-director of Books By The Beach, the Scarborough book festival Peter Guttridge.

    I like the interviewer, he let it flow and did a splendid job. Really enjoyed this. A dripping wimple, love it. I love Miriam’s choice of no kids, but on the other hand look at the grandmother she would have been, but I completely respect her sound decision, so her adopt a granny idea is perfect. Helping someone is more a reward to the giver than the receiver. Totally agree about the T character. When I ate meat, I loved liver, onions in gravy and I don’t buy ice cream much as I love it too much. Thank you Miriam for being you, I love good diction, tv announcers and news readers drive me crazy. Stay well dear trinket.

      Every time I see her i remember the time I saw her in person in Santa Monica. I was on my way into a 7-11 (a convenience store) and I turned to see her in the passenger side of a parked car. I instantly recognized her from the film, The Age of Innocence. I wish I had said “hello” to her then. It was later on I remembered that she was in one of my favorite films, Yentl. Oh well maybe one day I will get another opportunity to talk to her. She is one of my favorite actresses.

    Oh I love the story about her grandfather approaching the officer, the message he came to give was about the life or death of his son, and there in his own life or death. It’s such an emotional story I was covered in goosebumps with tears in my eyes. I am so glad that the officer decided that Miriams father had a greater destiny, or at least he liked the diamond enough! Which ever one. What a good father to love his son like that and to fight for him. God bless Miriam Margolyes Grandfather 🙏💖

      I loved the story as well, but I don’t really believe it went down exactly as she recalls it. Her father may have been excused from service because he had just been accepted to university. I don’t know, but I am not buying the bribery story. However, she tells it very well and it is very moving.

      Very disappointing. I found. Very narcissistic. She doesn't do self reflection. She is right about James Woods. He is a bunt. And called him out in front of producers. When she was on graham Norton she told matthew Perry that she did not like matha kaufman. She Met her in california or new york but doesn't say or explain why she didn't like her in the book. Very odd.

    Miriam you are delightful. I like your sense of justice, your openess & how you present yourself: humble, not afraid to say who you are, what you feel: vulnerable & lonely. May be I share some aspects you are in. I know you don't like Sydney due to the bridge experience. May be this was a joke... if not a big ask when you are in Sydney come to visit me. I will be honoured & definitely cheered up in this difficult time of imprisonment for Madam Covid 19 who succeeded to punish us & kept us isolated.
    I must say that I didn't like your interviewer this time. Appeared arrogant, unpleasant & High Almighty who had stopped you unfairly & rudely when you asked him a simple question but you were above his small mind & you kept going as nothing has happened. Beautiful & kind Miriam.

    Miss Margolyes is attempting to create a new persona for herself since finishing the 'Harry Potter' films that she was involved in., from which, I suspect she will have received a considerable stipend. She reminds me of an elderly Jewish Lady that once employed me to run her finance company. She continually promotes her 'Jewishness'. Which I do not particularly object to, other than it is somewhat boring. She must realise that we do not live in the musical Hall age where an entertainer could repeat ad nauseam and then move on to the next town with an entirely new audience. I am referring to matters like every television performance that highlights her propensity to fart or other bodily functions or her lesbianism. Having said that I find her very entertaining.
