Americans First Time Reacting To Miriam Margolyes On Norton! She's SAVAGE!

[@allegory6393]

Miriam Margolyes is one of our greatest character actors here in the UK. She has had a very long theatre career. Saw her on stage in Dickens' Women a few years ago where she did most of Dickens' female characters. Great night. She is not a comedian, she is intelligent, witty and sharp with a profound education, and she speaks her mind (thank heavens that mind is educated). She is a breath of fresh air in a PR-scripted actor-celebrity world, where everyone bores us to death with stories of their families and their kids, and innocuous canned 'humour'.

[@karendowse8721]

She is such a legend, she should be a Dame…love that woman sooooooo much!!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@maligalmiami]

Miriam love the fact she has no filters....i am following in her footsteps and being totally unfiltered.

[@musiclover9361]

Miriam is delightful. She has ZERO filter.

[@MONKeEeYboi]

I came to say this 😂❤

[@le6360]

Y’all immediately talking about Jimmy without talking about her first. Respect Miriam 💃💃💃

[@musiclover9361]

She's not a comedian, although she should be. She is an outstanding Classical actor.

[@mkrmkr3805]

Hiya lads. Thanks for taking the time, top job. It may be difficult at times trying to decipher and translate the humour from a foreign land. But when you get it....deep joy. Humour, what a planetary medicine. Let's try exchanging humour over aggression perhaps. Sport even as a sub for missiles ,let's get imaginative. I get a little bit of joy watching you blokes having a giggle tbf so thanks for that. 😉👏👏👏

[@majbrat]

There is way more stories guys - she is 1 in a Billion. So great!

[@direnova6284]

The phrase "broke the mould" was invented for people like Miriam.

[@williambaxter4628]

And brings out the best in others.

[@Muzikmunkee]

💯. She truly is one of a kind...

[@sarahc1371]

There’s a two part complication of all the best moments of Miriam on the Graham Norton show. They’re really good.

[@nighttimenailsasmr]

Please do more with her she’s a comedy genius 😂

[@MegaDeansy]

I loved it when Miriam absolutely disgusted Matthew Perry (sadly, not shown on this) - it was priceless !

[@Winkie_Designs]

@MegaDeansy yea ha! ha! Matthew Perry was mortified 🤣🤣🤣 the look on his face said it all

[@lynndally9160]

Miriam played professor sprout in the Harry Potter movies

[@impopquiz]

The part about being gay was about str8 guys getting a gay role for a film. The ep with Will I.Am and Greg Davis was hilarious af.

[@mikestarkey7989]

This woman has no filter from thought to mouth! And what comes out is so funny!

[@moirabaker458]

You need to do more Miriam....

[@botticellirejectbotticelli2668]

This is quite tame for Miriam.

[@vilebrequin6923]

More Miriam please!❤

[@chuckyboy6977]

Miriam’s a regular on the Graham Norton show, I thought this video would’ve had the parts from when Mathew Perry was a guest. Stanley’s face was a picture, but if you take it as a marker, wait until you see the absolute shocked look on Perry’s face from Miriam’s story on that GN show.

[@gabbymcclymont3563]

Her story about a soldure in a tree realy shocks Will I Am,so funny it kills him. Another G Norton show you guys should see.

[@lizcollinson2692]

Watching their friendship grow over the show was so brilliant.

[@heliotropezzz333]

soldier

[@gabbymcclymont3563]

Thanx Dyslexic.@@heliotropezzz333

[@agape843]

There’s more of her on Graham Norton that’s a killer! Check it out!

[@JoTracy]

Lol YOU guys are the savages 🤣 Miriam is wonderful

[@nighttimenailsasmr]

Please do more with her she’s a comedy genius 😂

[@JackNapierDe]

Just to mention the Graham Norton Show Segment with the 'Menu fails', also with Stanley Tucci. I don't remember if it was this episode.

[@maryhanrahan]

These clips all from one Norton show - she has quite a few appearances and she has a lot of wild stories - I like the Norton appearance when she was on with Will I Am - she is hilarious - a legend - I think there is some compilation videos of her multiple appearances

[@pomerau]

Re a straight person being better at portraying a gay person was probably reference to the great 2006 movie The Devil Wears Prada, where Stanley played a gay clothing designer /expert for the magazine. Love Stanley Tucci (as a straight 60 something Irishman living in London). He lives here now. Apart from Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway also starring, my favourite performace was by Emily Blunt as the main / original PA to Streep. who was a little bitchy to Anne and overstressed but a great character to play. Stanley Tucci married Emily Blunt's sister in 2012.

[@jonathanwilliams9697]

Mirams story about her Onion is absolutely jokes 😂

[@donnamoore8840]

Gotta Love Her... She's Truly Herself... Which you've Gotta Love for....

[@Pomdownuder]

🇦🇺 🇬🇧 We're no as uptight, as the US. We can still have a laugh, your "freedom of speech" is more restricted than most western countries.

[@kathydurow6814]

There is more language censorship on US TV talk shows re swearing etc. Hence Stanley Tucci's comment about being on a GN show that actually makes it to air. Generally the US has always been more uptight about sexual content than the UK, since the 1950s at least.

[@lollylula6399]

I love Miriam Margolyes. Please will you react to all of her appearances on Graham Norton? I absolutely agree with you about Jimmy Carr - anytime I see him appearing in any show I watch it because I know he's just going to make it hilarious.

[@markcraine4213]

Best story is when she met the American soldier 😂

[@urbanastro4701]

You guys just need to come to Britain, go in any pub on a Friday night and this is just what the conversation is like

[@smithpm81]

shes an actress

[@lizcollinson2692]

And alot of voice work, the Cadbury caramel bunny.

[@annicecooper8105]

Mar-go-leeze

[@Uatu-the-Watcher]

Jimmy Carr is my favorite comedian.

[@Uatu-the-Watcher]

Jimmy Carr’s laugh is just like Eddie Murphy’s. It’s just a matter of tone.

[@sandys1890]

She played Professor Sprout in Harry Potter

[@moirabaker458]

And she had the sexy voice for Cadbury's Caramel....

[@LazyLil100]

Her surname is pronounced mar-go-lees

[@karenshanley487]

God bless Prof. Sprout!

[@johnritter6864]

Quality

[@stevehartley7504]

Prof sprout Harry Potter

[@JeanetteWoodrow]

she means that actors who are straight play better gay parts than gay and lesbian

[@maytree56]

Mar go lees

[@larryaleshire4907]

do your research

[@nadiablack4797]

Pronounced mar go lees

[@judywelch1044]

Great reaction. Hey guy in lt. grey shirt TAKE OFF THAT STUPID HAT, It doesn't fit.

[@3h2o61]

Please show respect to who you are highlighting by learning how to say them name properly. It's the least you can do considering you are making money off of them.

[@booker0110]

Miriam M had a good career but the work doesn’t come so easily as you get older. IMO she has found that the more foul mouthed she is the more she gets asked onto panel shows. Each story therefore has to be more outrageous than the last. She is a very good narrator and I’d like her to stop cheapening her act and thereby making her legacy one of a potty mouth and not the very good actress and narrator which she is, but which will be forgotten.

[@AussieKim42]

You’re obviously not Australian- she has several lovely & successful travel series here where she meets lots of different people & asks them about their lives & experiences. She is extremely popular here, esp since she got Australian citizenship around 10 years ago.

[@debbietrabeau3764]

You need to show a bigger screen of the show and not yourselves

[@Mark_Bickerton]

It's funny, she's so entertaining, so likeable and yet... she has the most horrid political views. It's hard to make sense of!

[@EileenHall-j9f]

She’s. Likeable yes, but that is partly because of her political views. She’s a good woman.
