Richard Herring's Leicester Square Theatre Podcast with Miranda Hart

Randy Dyke
www.kickstarter.com/projects/...
After the infestation of flies that plagued the first two podcasts of the series, Richard has been gifted a tennis racquet shaped fly exterminator to try and deal with the issue. There aren't many flies around, but a game member of the audience agrees to be zapped. May she rest in peace. Richard is still a bit sore from running a half-Marathon (sponsor him here) in the record breaking time of under 2 hrs 38 minutes, but has a guest who has run 100 metres in just over 12 seconds, Miranda Hart.
The pair last appeared together in the short film, A Very British Cult, in which Richard was the STAR, so let's just remember that and none of the stuff that's happened subsequently. They also chat about the different comedy they have created from falling into graves, being mistaken for the wrong gender, laughing at inappropriate times and Miranda's trial for QPR. There's a further exciting evolution for the ham hand/suncream armpit question (which leaves ham and armpits behind) and a treat for fans of the opening credits of some of the series of Not Going Out (that's just Richard then).

Good stuff this interview. So refreshing to see Miranda Hart as herself instead of playing a "character" in her normal quick interviews. Also Hyperdrive is a way underrated comedy IMHO.

[@markhodgson2348]

I'm very fond of miranda I could listen to her talk forever such a interesting lady

[@666redface]

Thanks for uploading this- I like to think when I have money I will give something back to society.

[@Michael_Johnson_5446]

£33,146 / 1156 = £28.67 per person. That's amazing considering Mr Herring gives the material away free. Shows how much people want the show to continue.

[@aprilapril2]

tina terry hope you continue on your joyful life x

[@kathish]

Anybody else mesmerized by the reflections in Rich's sunglasses?

[@sarahlarry17]

one of my faves he really charmed her. I reckon he was good at chatting up ladies

[@stewmott3763]

I could listen to her talking about frigates going down all day long.

[@zbr76]

Richard discussing Miranda's genealogy was aptly strange. I'm her distant cousin since we share an 18th-century earl for a common ancestor. When I first found out Miranda branched off of dukes and earls, I tore her family tree apart for a connection.

[@harryturner8701]

39:10 “sorry” 😂😂😂 FFS

[@frankbrodie5168]

Hyperdrive was brilliant. I still binge the entire 2 series' of it about twice a year from my DVD collection. What's not to like about a comedy with Miranda Hart, Nick Frost and Kevin Eldon all in major parts. + a fantastic couple of appearances from Monserrat Lombard?

[@devilprooftiger]

Love it. I remember Mrianda from THE ORANGE GIRLS...Where's Charity!? (the funny one) X

[@EleanorPeterson]

The Splat Bat?🏸 57:17 - "Mum, did I choke on anything when I was little?" "Er... yes, dear. When you were a baby. Talcum powder." And if anyone was wondering, the 'Welsh schoolboy' who comes up with Richard's silly questions is Chris Evans (yes, THAT Chris Evans, the Big Breakfast bloke off the telly, who's also this programme's director). Allegedly.

[@trubblebubble1]

Errm... A name for the tennis racquet - The Umpire Strikes Bugs? Does that work? It's the best I can do, anyway.

[@kenlieck7756]

That is very bad and your punishment is to watch this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eZ7RZYyrhZqMjNE

[@martinmaguire-music6692]

The Exe-deuce-ioner

[@jafwilding]

There's a KZbinr called Rob Dyke, and he changed his name because he reckoned KZbin was demonetising his videos because his last name is a rude word.

[@leereadman9940]

love everything she has done very very funny woman

[@icarusandtherabbit]

Oh the first appearance of the finger that can travel through time.

[@DogOfKrondor]

"Fingering History" who wouldn't watch that.

[@kenlieck7756]

I did a KZbin search by typing in "how to swallow herring" and the results were interesting (including one clip actually of Richard) but was unable to locate his fine acting role...

[@kithand1106]

Ken Lieck the film is called "hard to swallow"

[@jarodh-m6099]

The Grand Slam

[@paullamb7937]

awww and poor little lino died in the end

[@evanhadkins5532]

Re male and female gaits. There is a few seconds of genius in All of Me where the Steve Martin character is inhabited by the soul of a woman, and the character walks on one side as a woman and the other as a man. See if it if you can.

[@humblescribe8522]

Wow, how pissed were you when you recorded that intro?

[@msdsplayground8360]

Love her.

[@MusicalDudeMayhem]

The Deucer, surely

[@themadplotter]

Hyperdrive wasn't bad, maybe a bit more time or money was needed.

[@LAHegarty]

What is the woman on the right called?

[@rubberjonny1557]

34:21 ...I think she looks more like Joe Cornish from Adam and Joe

[@ellenspear7368]

Fellate Keith Allen? Yikes. I had to look him up, but he is who I thought -- the actor who played a most awful, terrible villain in Martin Chuzzlewit. Again yikes.

[@aprilapril2]

Ellen Spear he is quite an appalling person. Strange how he sired the lovely Lily

[@johnreilly63]

Seems like a nice person.Who do you blame, the writer of mediocre material, or the vast audience that can't get enough of it?

[@alpinenewtplaysgames4509]

I've been watching through these randomly because they are great. Just have to say, if your wee smells like Sugar Puffs you are diabetic, but it's OK because you can cure that with a keto diet.

[@aprilapril2]

Alpine Newt Plays Games not if you’ve been eating sugar puffs

[@abegarfield7031]

Mine smelled like that all through childhood. I'm not diabetic.

[@EleanorPeterson]

@@aprilapril2- Hmm... Your name sounds like 'pee'; does that mean urine trouble too? 🤔 [Joking. I'm taking the sweet-smelling p*ss.] My surname isn't 'P', by the way, it's Peterson. I'm not diabetic, either. What the heck's going on?

[@Rocstoneau]

Foul language 30 seconds in, charming man.

[@aprilapril2]

Rocstoneau hahaha. Harmless nice funny rude gentleman he is honestly

[@EleanorPeterson]

@@aprilapril2 - Yep. Some people just can't cope with people being people, can they.🙄 Let Richard express himself however he wants, I say. As for those precious dears like Rocstoneau (let me guess: devout and 'born again'?) upset by foul language, I suggest they *uck off [🦆lame-duck waterfowl pun alert] back to Stepford, lose themselves in their Good Book of fairy stories, and let grown-ups be grown-ups.
