Nick and Angela welcome their most anticipated guest so far to Dish HQ.



Miriam Margolyes OBE is renowned for her acting career spanning over five decades, but it is her inimitable sense of humour that has earned her a special place in the hearts of audiences worldwide. Miriam was the voice of the Cadbury’s caramel bunny in 1990, won a BAFTA for her role in The Age of Innocence in 1994 and portrayed Professor Sprout in the Harry Potter franchise. Her autobiography, This Much is True, sold three million copies and her new book, Oh Miriam! Stories from an Extraordinary Life is out now.



Though not a cook, Miriam absolutely loves food and tucks into Angela’s delicious sage and rosemary chicken stew with mash potato, followed by a tarte tatin, with gusto. This episode is a hilarious glimpse into the incredible life of Miriam Margolyes. She discusses her Vogue cover shoot, why she lives with housemates rather than her partner and what it was like having dinner in Sandringham.
