being a regular watcher of The Graham Norton Show, i can attest to Alan's statement that _that is_ the cleanest story from Miriam 😆

@clothilde1623 Год назад

As a Brit and Norton fan, you beat me to it! US public networks are very much not Miriam’s natural domain 😂

@WeAllLiveInTheTwilightZone Год назад

I'm an American who absolutely loves Graham Norton so I'm completely aware of who Miriam is. She's is a treasure and everything that comes out of her mouth is hilarious and dirty at the same time. You seriously could not predict what she will say. Also, Alan is such an accomplished actor, so well rounded and jovial. Gotta love him...

@lynnewilley4599 Год назад

I watched Miriam play Miss Fisher's aunt. That is one of my top favorite TV shows. Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries I believe ...Australia show....costumes cost over 1 million per episode.

@oughtssought1198 Месяц назад

it's a tossup which is funnier between her stories and the ways she puts people on the spot not actually offending, but kinda awkwardly wondering what will who say to that? fans of hers who've worked with her before, like Alan, Graham and Daniel Radcliffe, handle it smoothly, but at her best that next instant of both guests and audience wondering "OoooKaaay, (pause) How is who going to respond to that?" is as funny as the stories, at least for me one of the funniest bits of casting I'm aware of, just the fact that its Miriam playing the role, is the aptly named Aunt Prudence in the Australian TVshow Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries some of which are still on youtube

@alanpreece5940 Год назад

My memory of Miriam was on the Richard and Judy show. They were talking about the menopause and Richard said "You will understand these problems, won't you Miriam. She replied "not really dear, I'm still moist down there" Poor Richard nearly choked.

@senguptasayn Год назад

I screamed out loud when this trailor for the show dropped. Alan Cummings role is sublime. I can't recommend the show enough.

There's a reason this man (in his Cabaret MC incarnation) is my screensaver. He's the epitome of Puckish sexiness.

@rabbit251 Год назад

When gay men first got into comedy like Paul Lynde or Charles Nelson Reilly, like Alan they didn't become popular by flaunting their homosexuality but by being extremely clever and witty. We've come a long way since Oscar Wilde and thank goodness for them. If I see Alan, I watch it.

@zzzroxyzzz Год назад

Miriam is a treasure, one of the funniest women and best story tellers, I wish I could meet her one day and there's not a lot of celebs I give a flip about meeting but I'd love to see her in person.

Alan Cumming and Miriam Margolyes: the two funnest people on the planet. It was absolute genius to pair them up. Just finished the first season (series) and have thoroughly enjoyed the tour but, even more, I felt like I was in the company of two amazing human beings.

It’s so hard to think of Alan Cumming in anything but Cabaret. Still remember the first time I saw anything with him - he did a song from Cabaret on Rosie O’Donnell’s show. And I fell in love ❤️

@clothilde1623 Год назад

Back in the early/mid nineties (I think?) Alan played an air steward in a sitcom called ‘The High Life’ here in Scotland, and his character in that is still all I can think about when I see him!

Did Seth just get _very_ nervous about how far Alan would take his M.M. story? 😁😄

@CriticalRelativist Год назад

So appreciate all the work Alan Cumming has done over the years to raise awareness of the harms of circumcision. The foreskin is a healthy, sensitive, functional body part -- and thus it is not REALLY open to "parental preference" as a body part for removal, just as no parts of the female genital anatomy should be removed at the request of a parent. It's so easy to see the questionable practices of other cultures, and so easy to accept the common practices of our own as "no big deal." But genital surgery of healthy infants... that's one that's WORTH a second look.

@tarecahubbard-holt1630 Год назад

@AnthonioPettit Год назад

Alan Cumming has been a vocal intactivist for years and I'm glad to see him (circuitously) condemning circumcision on TV! Does anyone know the scoop on the book he wrote about the subject? It seems like there as a lot of hype building up to its release, but then it vanished? Or maybe I'm wrong. I always wondered if he somehow got bullied into not releasing it, or the publisher decided it was too risky a subject?

Seth, this was nearly a flawless interview. But I’m sorry to say you messed up. You called Miriam Margolyes an “actor”. I saw a live interview of the divine M.M. on “The Last Leg”, an achingly funny chat show on Channel 4 in the UK. She corrected the host, Adam Hills. She prefers to be called an actress.

@douglascoonfield2525 Год назад
