Miriam Margolyes in America

[SouthWestmom]

Love her. This is brilliant. She's such a people person.

Loved that summer camp. Obviously in the UK it would be pissing down with rain.

Totally agree. She's just brilliant and I could watch her all day.

I find her so annoying.

Good to see an older non conventionally attractive woman charging about.

Ive been really impressed with her. She seems to really connect with people and care a lot for them. And willing to change her opinion if she thinks she got it wrong.
Not many people on TV you can say that about these days.

She does seem to care - but I wish she would control her farts.

Loved the kids faces when she said she didn't like the Queen!

Made me well up when she was in the prison giving the women a pep talk.

She is wonderful. I could do without the random body burps, but she is so entertaining and unfiltered. But also wise, empathetic, funny. I love people who use language well. She is a delight to listen to - her phrasing and use of vocabulary. She is a dying breed. We don't think or speak like her these days, and more's the pity. The Sheriff's wife was not impressed! She was lovely with the female inmates.

I think I'd rather get nuked than survive and live with those preppers.

I really like this series. She is so honest and unguarded. I thought she was very good with the children at the radio station - she didn’t patronise them. I’m looking forward to the last part.

she was good on the mariot hotel also,worth a look if you havent seen it

When she met Will.I.Am on Graham Norton Show was hysterically funny. It is probably on YouTube.

y her and poor Jan on the Marigold hotel - polar opposites !

Was a bit uncomfortable at the sheriff's wife part, plus I'm not sure the UK treat crime via drug addiction any better than America does?

I just love her vibe. Think she's a bit naive about the inmates sadly.

I can’t stand her “ look at me I’m an old, fat, crude, Jewish lesbian routine “.
She is ok when acting.

I was really uncomfortable with her patronising, maternal wise tosh in the prison. Not sure about her at all but interesting programme.

I really admire her, I think we could do with a few more of her. She isn’t worried about saying what she thinks, I think we are all so scared of upsetting someone we don’t have opinions anymore.

I love the way she speaks. I love the flow and the vocabulary. She’s ace. I want to tell her, but I expect she’d tell me to piss off!

I’ve always disliked her intensely - noisy, silly, hammy over acting with too much eye rolling.

In this she’s amazing! A really friendly, interesting traveller.

I was a bit fed up with her moaning in one of the Marigold hotel ones but I thought she was fantastic last night.

She's definitely marmite!

I think she has a fantastic vocabulary and a really great people personality. I liked her just mucking In in the prison.

Am watching her in Chicago she's just so frank it's refreshing and she's brave loving this series

I think she is rather Marmite

I'm finding this series absolutely fascinating and quite moving.
Although I do cringe when she says things in an American accent ;)

She needs to read one of threads on how to deal with curly hair

She likes the way she looks.
