Call the midwife, Divas!
We’re giving birth to our TWENTIETH full episode. The big 2-0. Blimey, hasn’t it just flown by?
…ahem.
But this week is an absolute treat. A much-requested Diva is the subject, and Holly and Tom are joined by an icon of pre-corona stages, from Soho to Stirling: the fabulous Nancy Clench is here to discuss the truly unique Madame Miriam Margolyes!
Come with the threesome on a journey through the Margolmaze and learn of Miriam’s ascent from Footlights, to the Beeb and eventually Hollywood, as well as her sexual exploits with soldiers/park wardens and her penchant for making people call her characters something a bit like her own name.
Along the way, we’ll cover such essential issues as how to wank in a tree and the perils of doing housework in the nude, as well as giving Bill Oddie a thorough verbal thrashing.
[Note: This episode was initially recorded before the end of lockdown, so apologies for some sound issues (seems those shares in Zoom were useless after all!) and some references are slightly out of date.]
