Margolyes, Miriam

  • Oh Miriam!

    £10.99

    From declaring my love to Vanessa Redgrave to being fed cockroaches by Steve Buscemi, from turnip-based comedy with ‘Blackadder’ to being farted on by Arnold Schwarzenegger, from Graham Norton’s sofa to Alan Cumming’s campervan, my life has been (and continues to be) a riotous adventure. ‘Oh Miriam!’ has been such a constant refrain in my life, said in all kinds of tones – laughs, surprised gasps and orgasmic sighs (I’m hoping for all those from you as you read on!) – that it had to be the title of this book. And with a castlist that stretches from Churchill to di Caprio, Dahl to Dietrich, Princess Margaret to Maggie Smith, I’ve got so much more to tell you and so much more to say.

  • Oh Miriam!

    £25.00

    Join us on another unforgettable adventure through the extraordinary life and strong opinions of Miriam Margolyes.

  • This Much Is True

    £9.99

    Award-winning actor, creator of a myriad of memorable characters from Lady Whiteadder to Professor Sprout, Miriam Margolyes is a national treasure. Now, at last, at the age of 80, she has finally decided to tell her extraordinary life story. And it’s far richer and stranger than any part she’s played. Find out how being conceived in an air-raid gave her curly hair; what pranks led to her being known as the naughtiest girl Oxford High School ever had; how she ended up posing nude for Augustus John aged 17, being sent to Coventry by Monty Python and the Goodies and swearing on University Challenge (she was the first woman to say F*** on TV). This book is packed with unforgettable stories from why Bob Monkhouse was the best (male) kiss she’s ever had to being told off by the Queen.
