Miriam Margolyes in America

[SouthWestmom]

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

I think if it were a fat, old man saying some of the sexual things she does there'd be uproar.

She's one of the rudest people I have ever had the displeasure of meeting.

Can't stand her now. Pisses me off that she's Professor Sprout.

I want to like MM but she's opinionated without being knowledgeable and charmlessly rude. The programme is very watchable though.

Maybe you are talking about other things she has said but I didn’t think there was anything terrible said last night. From memory:
She asked the cowboy about being gay and he said he liked ‘titties’ to which she agreed. I think a gay older man asking a woman about if she had considered being a lesbian would be fine although maybe inappropriate from a straight man?
The Quiverfull woman was talking about being a surrendered wife and never saying no. MM talked about her partner and that sex was less important than love.
She showed her bra in response to the bikers talking about flashing.

I honestly think she comes across as direct rather than rude. While she is opinionated she does really listen to what others are saying. She seemed to get on well with almost everyone.

I am from a Jewish background and she is so much like one of my relatives that I can’t help but love her.

Does anyone know if last night's is repeated? failed to record!

The KKK bloke - just absolutely horrendous people think like that in today’s society. It’s how the fuckwit Trump came to power.

As for Miriam, she had really gone up in my estimations as she used to come across as a self-hating Jew (why any Jewish person would hate their own race/religion is beyond me), but she seems to be quite fond of her heritage now!
