The ineffable Margolyes is truly one of the finest deadpan comediennes of her generation, as well as an accomplished character actress. Joel, your generation probably know her best as Professor Sprout in the Harry Potter movies, but her rôle in Age of Innocence is what earned her a BAFTA award. The late Queen awarded her an OBE for her contribution to drama, having appeared in over 70 movies, over 50 TV dramas, and over 40 stage plays. She's truly an institution.
@@justinwilliams7290 No, she was created an Officer of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (OBE). This is several levels lower than a knighthood, which would have made her a Dame.
Given Miriam Margolyes' concern about syntax and language, I have to correct your use of the word "ineffable" which given your comments is not apposite. The word should have been "incomparable".
My mother-in-law cleans her holiday house here in Australia. She's even cooks for Miriam and her partner whenever she's in town. Based on my MIL's stories she's just as kooky and crazy as she is on TV. My partner recently helped re-varnished her floors and she gushed to my MIL how happy she was with the work😚
Love this woman! Miriam is the friend everyone wants in their lives lol she has no filter,says it like it is. I could listen to her and her stories all day,please watch part 2 asap lol she is a joy. Another great video x again thank you Joel
Everyone says that until they find a friend with no filter! 😂. I'm that friend and people don't appreciate how forward and straight to the point I am. Apparently it comes off as rude lol
Miriam Margolyes (pronounced Margoleeze) has lived here in Australia now for the last 10 or 15 years. She is a absolute hoot. She has done quaite a few travelling documentaries here. One funny woman :)
Of course we want part 2! That’s not even a question Joel. She is absolutely amazing, hilarious and really helps lift my mood even when I’m down. Your reaction to her was so good to watch. Also happy to see that all that alcohol from the livestream and what followed has been quickly metabolized out of your body. Sure, you are young and athletic and can handle yourself but please don’t let us get you into bad drinking habits mate. Do drink a lot of water when having alcohol and try not to mix your drinks. What I mean is don’t mix grape and grain. It’s fine to have say different whiskeys or different beers or different wines, but don’t mix wine and beer for example. And stay away from sweet drinks. I was raised in a family restaurant and used to make cocktails for our tourist customers. No drink left the bar without me tasting it first. And yes, I was an impressionable young boy. Thankfully I am not an alcoholic 🙂 Sorry to be such a boring middle aged bloke but I am old enough to be your father and I can’t help myself. A question my friend if it isn’t too personal. Are you still doing a computer science related major? What Maths classes did you have to take (or have left)? My curiosity stems from what I do for a living 🤓. Prof of Applied Maths 🤓
Omg, you should watch the programme she did about the 'ghetto' parts of America, it was amazing and the people she had to show her around were amazing! Love this woman!! 💖
Glad you’ve found Miriam now. Your shot of whisky is still in my mind. When you held it to the camera it almost filled our screen. Probably the reason for so many shocked reactions. Hope you had a great night.
Oh my. This is my favourite compilation on UA-cam, so I'm glad that you reacted to it. I've watched the full thing loads of times, the second half is even more hilarious so you definitely have to watch it.
There are some other additional ones with her in it. She is very honest. Graham Norton is fantastic as a host. I feel that you can get away with more on British TV. Some American stars are quite shocked.
Yes she has no filter, but is not oblivious to what she says. She says what she wants and enjoys the reactions it causes, she makes people laugh deliberately to simply give joy.
I used to see her nearly every day in the 70s before she was really famous. She did voice overs at the London Studio I worked at and went out with our receptionist. Pronounce it Margo-lees.
I'm from the UK and Miriam is a wonderful person, a harmless person who says what she thinks. She's Marmite, you either love her or hate her. I love her so much 🥰
Please, please, PLEASE do the second part!! It gets so much more outrageous and unfiltered. Miriam is a total sweetheart - she is one of my fantasy dinner party guests 😀
She lives in Australia now, not all that far from Wollongong where I live -- up in the mountains to the south in a place called Robertson, where "Babe" was filmed. She also did a documentary series called "Australia Unmasked" which may interest you.
Miriam is brilliant. Totally unfiltered and as honest as she can be, but she's got this vulnerability and innocence about her at the same time...like a sweet old grandma with tourettes. lol. She's not afraid to talk to the world like you would to your best mates, the most intimate and embarrassing subjects are never off the table with Miriam. This is such an unusual trait of those in the public eye because they're all so afraid of the repercussions...she's not. Thankfully!
God I love Miriam. ❤ I’ve seen these clips so many times and yet every time I laugh as much as the the first time. 😁😁 You have no idea how happy this reaction made me. 😂 I’ve never seen friends either . But I guess it came out when I was like 3 years old so that’s no surprise really.
Love Miriam M.,a real Anglo-Australian national treasure,and for those Brits of a certain vintage😉; she regularly give off 'dotty/eccentric old aunt-Dame Margaret Rutherford' vibes!😁
I just love her she doesn't give a hoot what she says She has no filter and is getting worse as she gets Older Check her out on the Irish Late Late Show a few weeks ago the Poor Presenter was Mortified he didn't know where to look 😂😂
Miriam is fabulous! In '68 to '70 i worked in music publishing with her brother Mike who married the fabulous singer and friend of my partner, Anita Harris. Miriam came into the offices from time to time and was SOOooo! amusingly and kindly insulting that I'd giggle my way home, all the way to "Maida Vale" in West London. We all, in the office, pronounced the surname MAR-GO-LISS.
PLEEEEEEEAAAASE do part 2 Joel!!! I was in hysterics watching this as well as your reactions to it! Miriam is hilarious!!! BTW, the beard is looking awesome now bro 👍😜
Miriam is a legend ❤ you wouldn’t expect it of such a well spoken older lady, the swear words and rude things she talks about and I just love her for the no nonsense, straight talking way she has about her. Can’t wait for you to watch more x and Graham Norton is very funny too 😂
You are correct Joel if she does have any filters they don't stop much. She thinks it and it just flows out. I really do enjoy your reactions you are so refreshing. Please keep them coming.
Yeah, you got her name right at the end: MAR-go-lees I really hope you do the rest of this soon. There are some great clips that weren't in the first half that I'd love to see you react to. The filter really comes off!
I live in the UK , where I reckon the Miriam is considered to be a National Treasure…. She is hysterical in the road trip series with Alan Cummings “ Lost in Scotland., Alan deserves National Treasure status as well xxxx. This mix has me in stitches 🤣🤣🤣🤣. IN OUR HOME FARTS ARE KNOWN AS “MIRIAMS”❤❤❤❤. We need part 2 for the endorphins released by belly laughs 😂😂
I've listened to the one & only Margolyes on the radio ,and she has so many voices, and she is amazing at them. She is perfection personified with her voice.
Love Miriam margolyes…she comes out with classic one liners that just crack u up laughing..good on her…u never know what she will come out with…and so innocently😂😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️❤️
@ItsJps - You DEFINITELY have to do a part II. You missed the absolute best bit between Miriam, Matthew Perry, and Gemma Arterton about Laurence Olivier
I’ve seen all these episodes of Graham Norton so I’m really enjoying watching your facial expressions while watching. You’re so funny (as well as very good looking)
Apparently Miriam became good friends with Will-I-am and they have met up socially since.
Oh I love that for them. I think its so cool to see in the Interview, on the beginning to the end you can see how comfortable they get together.. ❤
Oh you can just seem him falling for her, it's so cute.
That's so sweet - you can see that they really hit it off!
Will Iam. Bloody legend 😍

Watch her on The Late Late Show....with Ryan Tubridy.......Irish TV station rte1

Omg please tell more details😭💙
Miriam has been an Australian citizen since 2013. The then Prime Minister Julia Gillard presented her with her citizenship certificate.
Read her book where she talks about sucking off all the girls in her class…ick
❤️
Gushed ? Not like squirted
Love Miriam because she has absolutely NO filter, and says it how it is lol. Her surname is pronounced MargoLEES
Love this woman! Miriam is the friend everyone wants in their lives lol she has no filter,says it like it is. I could listen to her and her stories all day,please watch part 2 asap lol she is a joy. Another great video x again thank you Joel
That's why she fits in so well in Australia!

Yes,she done 2 sets of Australian Tourist Board-sponsored travelogues,which have been shown here on the UK's BBC2 channel.👌👍
She divides her time between her home in London and Australia, she's got duel citizenship.
Love Mirium! Fascinating person, and completely natural.
I love your face. Graham Norton has no US filter.
The British and Australian find this hilarious.
Honest open discussions 😂😂
10:36 Yes, but the thing about not having a filter is that it shouldn’t be used an excuse to personally attack anyone.
Of course we want part 2! That’s not even a question Joel. She is absolutely amazing, hilarious and really helps lift my mood even when I’m down. Your reaction to her was so good to watch.

A question my friend if it isn’t too personal. Are you still doing a computer science related major? What Maths classes did you have to take (or have left)?
My curiosity stems from what I do for a living 🤓. Prof of Applied Maths 🤓
He's still studying IT. Not sure which math was involved

I love Miriam. I cringe occasionally and think don’t go there, but she is such a warm lovable soul you can’t help love her.
Yes to part 2. Miriam is a legend and really genuinely funny. x
Wonderful, she says all the things that we would love to say, but are reluctant to do so.
The Norton show is great, and Miriam is hilarious.
Oh my. This is my favourite compilation on UA-cam, so I'm glad that you reacted to it.

American TV is very conservative and strange. Any level of violence seems to be OK yet a wrong word or any level of nudity is taboo. Weird.

I've never seen Friends either. And Miriam is amazing, I love seeing her.
She’s a national treasure for chat shows.
Miriam is amazing!!! I love watching her and I hope that I am like her at her age!!
Miriam is truly a funny lady and a lovely lady. I don't think she gets how funny she is. She's the grandma everyone would love
She lives in Australia now, not all that far from Wollongong where I live -- up in the mountains to the south in a place called Robertson, where "Babe" was filmed. She also did a documentary series called "Australia Unmasked" which may interest you.
Australia Unmasked is on the BBC right now.
I've been to Wollongong, the steel town not too far from Sydney. The coastal drive is amazing.
Keep her! I can’t believe what I’m reading she makes my skin crawl
She divides her time between her home in London and Australia, she's got duel citizenship.
@@LittleMissPyeWacket Bet she’s right up Albo’s street 😛
@@LittleMissPyeWacket Dual.
Miriam has never had a filter lol, I've never seen your jaw drop so much Joel lol. You gotta do part 2. 😂😂👌
Miriam is a GEM!- As an Aussie- I’m so glad she’s become an Aussie Citizen!🤷♀️🥰😂
Loving your content joel extremely amusing can't wait for part 2
She is hilariously honest! And you were correct at the end; it is Margo-lees. :)

I just love her she doesn't give a hoot what she says She has no filter and is getting worse as she gets Older

Yup. Mar-go-lees phonetically. You got it.
Mimi is soooo funny. She's so old she says what she likes and gets away with it. No filter and no embarrassment.
Nothing to do with being old- she’s always spoken her mind.
It is interesting that Miriam appeals to folks from across generations. If you like Miriam, you will fit right in when you visit Australia.
Would love a part 2! Great livestream the other day btw
When Miriam is not on stage, she swears like a bloody trooper!
You should watch an entire Graham Norton show. He is a little more than people saying funny things. He always takes time to talk to each guest.
Brilliant vid as usual, please do part 2 👍
Part 2 is needed. She legend.
That was hilarious, thank you for giving me such a laugh
She is good, funny& honest. Honest in a good way 🥰
She's funny and her voice is more posh than I expected. Somehow that makes what she says funnier!
You are correct Joel if she does have any filters they don't stop much. She thinks it and it just flows out. I really do enjoy your reactions you are so refreshing. Please keep them coming.
Her story about waiting for Laurence Olivier at the stage door could be the funniest thing I have ever seen.
Love Miriam she can say things and get away with it. But if someone else said the same thing people would be offended 😂 have a good day Joel
Just love her she is so funny...
Oh definitely Part 2! There's some really... great stories there!
Miriam is the Best - we definitely need part 2 😁
A national treasure. More Miriam please 🙏
Mim is one of our national treasures :)
Yeah, you got her name right at the end: MAR-go-lees
I really hope you do the rest of this soon. There are some great clips that weren't in the first half that I'd love to see you react to. The filter really comes off!
Love Mim's amd her honesty.
I would adopt her as my grandma in a second. I love this woman, she is funny, mostly inappropriate
and so honest.
Miriam…absolute legend ❤️
She is also an Australian citizen as well as UK and lives here part of the year!
I live in the UK , where I reckon the Miriam is considered to be a National Treasure….

OMG FINALLY! This is going to be so much fun and I love the thumbnail. She’s awesome! Also, a Sapphic Icon 🌈
I’m in my 50’s now, but have said for many years, I want to be Miriam when I grow up 🥰🤣
No filter😊Im stealing that. Perfect description.
Miriam became an Australian citizen a few years ago.
She divides her time between her home in London and Australia, she's got duel citizenship.
I’m crying with laughter at your expressions! So funny 😂
Love Miriam margolyes…she comes out with classic one liners that just crack u up laughing..good on her…u never know what she will come out with…and so innocently😂😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️❤️

6:34 THE LEGENDARY STORY.
@ItsJps - You DEFINITELY have to do a part II. You missed the absolute best bit between Miriam, Matthew Perry, and Gemma Arterton about Laurence Olivier
she so British 🤣🤣bless her 🎉
Miss Margolyes must be everyone’s dream dinner guest, but apart from her hilarious and unfiltered anecdotes, I love listening to her perfect diction.
Joel, (if not done so already) You should check her out in the Black Adder episode The Quenn of Spain's Beard. (Season 1 ep. 4) She is hysterical.
I love Miriam Margolyes! She is hilarious!!
I love Her Too..Brilliant and Forgets her filter..for DECADES.. I can chip in a few Bob if you hold us hostage for P2..😢
Yeees part 2 ! I've been waiting on this one for ages.
