Finally... and in response to popular demand, we're delighted to announce Miranda will be joining us for a webchat on Wednesday at 1pm. In her first book, Is it Just Me? Miranda shares a wealth of awkward experiences that have punctuated her life, from fashion choices, through to first dates and getting to grips with the etiquette of spa days.

Send your questions to Miranda and share with her your own awkward moments in life. After the webchat we'll ask Miranda to choose her favourite and the winner will receive a signed copy of her book.

JUSTINE!! How could you?!?!

This may be worse than Biscuit Gate.....

::waves to Miranda::

I don't have a question, but I luffs you and so does my husband and we luffs your show.

I am trying to think of an embarrassing moment but I am not well and really need to go lie down...

I'll get my coat...

A lot of us have Sue Perkins as our girl crush Miranda but obviously that will change as of today. Smile

EduCated · 17/10/2012 13:22

Ooh, ooh, hello! I've sneaked onto MN at work (iPad is behind a v boring looking textbook)

Question. Um. What advice would you give to women/girls trying to get into comedy? It's still a male dominated environment and that must be quite daunting at times.

Oh, and I luffs you Smile As do my parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins... It's nice to have a program that we can all watch together Smile

MirandaHart · 17/10/2012 13:22

@Consils

How did you get the idea for the toyshop? I know (of) a couple who won millions on the lottery and, instead of travelling the world in luxury, bought a toy shop. Without having to make a profit.

I have taught my bottom to control farts. You sort of let it breathe in and out gently. And the best bit is that the fart is still in there so you can wait until an appropriate moment in conversation (usually something contentious) and let your response out of your bottom.

We were sure you were going to marry what I call David Mitchell. And it is a pity you are not on all of those hignfy etc shows more often.

It is wonderful to be able to watch a show as a family and enjoy it together. I could witter on and on and think you are great.

But farting is SO funny - don't control them! But the response thing is genius.
As for the toyshop - it was really a joke shop to start with and now a kind of gift shop. I wanted something joyful that suited the character. Playful and that felt right.

We did a Comic Relief sketch with her - it's on YouTube and yes, i think she watches it and likes it. Phew! We love her.

Sparklingbrook · 17/10/2012 13:23

That's true EduCated. My 13 year old DS watches and that is praise indeed. And no effing and jeffing to worry about.

TheOriginalNutcracker · 17/10/2012 13:23

I have just txt both dd's to tell them I talking to Miranda on MN Grin

We all love you here, and often use Mirandaisms, as my kids call them.

Only the other day, ds (9) burst in on me in the bath and shouted 'you wee'd in a ball pool', and then off he went again.

HoneyDragon · 17/10/2012 13:23

TbF Goldie Hawn only got a Egg Sandwich (with Salad Cream), times must be tough for HQ or all the petty cash has gone on Gin again

Twosugarsplease · 17/10/2012 13:24

Miranda, I think it would be soooo funny if Miranda had a baby one day ? Grin

JugglingWithPossibilities · 17/10/2012 13:24

I don't like sandwiches either Miranda - except toasted ones.
I'm going to ask for a sandwich toaster for Christmas I think -
What would you like to get for Christmas ? Smile

  • I'd like a nice copy of your new book too - it sounds great ! - definitely something else for my Christmas list.

Do you make a list of desirable presents, or would that be terribly vulgar ?!

ZombTEE · 17/10/2012 13:24

Sorry, Justine. I over reacted.

Please don't go.... ::begs forgiveness::

OneMoreGo · 17/10/2012 13:24

Thank you for answering my question about Bear Grin You are my number one girl crush but also crushing on Nicola Walker (Ruth in Spooks) and Anna Maxwell Martin.
On a somewhat related note, I had BearWith as my username for a while on here... It makes me giggle every time Sally Phillips says it.

Sparklingbrook · 17/10/2012 13:24

I worry about whether your joke shop makes a profit TBH. Grin

MirandaHart · 17/10/2012 13:24

[quote LouMacca]Oh fab!!!

My question is.....

Will you and Gary ever get it on??

QueenFee · 17/10/2012 13:24

Hi Miranda.
I have met a lot of real life friends on Mumsnet.
How did you meet your best friend(s)?

Love the show!

naughtylittlegalloper · 17/10/2012 13:25

Hi Miranda.

What does Peggy do when you are out all day and filimng etc...?
Talking of vicers, i swore in front of one the other day, fortunately she told me she was sure God would have agreed with me, phew-ingtons!
Kisses from my sausage dog to your Peggy xx

shrinkingnora · 17/10/2012 13:25

My husband and I run our own business and I like to ask him the Heather Small question at regular intervals (just to be sure he is getting on with his work).

My question is this:

If you could have any job at all what would it be? And you're not allowed to say comedy actress.

Sparklingbrook · 17/10/2012 13:26

I think Gary will get it together with Miranda's Mum. Such fun. Grin
