She met Martha kaufman when she was auditioning for TV work in Los Angeles. She ended up worrying for Norman Lear on a long running TV show. Without explaining why, she really does not Martha kaufman, Without getting into legal issue, for her, Norton moved it on. There was a period in winona ryders life where she was a thief. Up to an including gwneth paltrows script for Shakespeare in love. Miriam margolyes really hated how she went about obtaining her nomination for best actress or supporting actress for the age. It comes from her mother about being with the best people from Miriam childhoods. Miriams potty mouth got her into trouble. She was miced up on radio 4. Tory mp Jeremy hunt was on before her on the today program last year at 8.30 am. And she said initially said I would have a nice day. Not realising the mic was on said I would call him an effing bustard. Which you cant say on air at tgat hour of the morning in the uk And she profusely apologised last night on the graham Norton show. Last night. She is very embarrassed. People are getting tired of her shtick.

@@philjones45Actually, Japan bestows a formal honour of "Living National Treasure" (Ningen Kokuho) to artists who contribute to "preserving intangible cultural properties". They receive an annual stipend of 2 million yen and since the annual budget is capped legally, there are only 116 at any given time. (Until a vacancy opens up because of a death.) So, unlike the UK, it is more than a title. Or a hackneyed phrase!

I've never watched Friends either. I've seen a few clips here and there, accidentally, but I've never sat down and watched a whole episode. I'm just not interested. Now I've had people tell me things about shows I'm not interested in, and they have tried to shame me, and practically force me to watch, and it doesn't turn out well. Not a good idea. If someone isn't interested, they're not interested. Doesn't mean the show is bad, or the not interested person is stupid. 😉 But Miriam is awesome. So funny. Glad you discovered her. 😉

Speaking of innocent seeming old ladies..... My Grandmother and her sister shared a house that I would stay at sometimes over summer holidays, Maud was very old and had outlived a few husbands. One day she sat down and proceeded to give me some veeeery detailed stories of her youth which made me feel much better about myself because I was no longer the "Morally Bent" member of the family. I can talk about it now because all who knew her are now dead, well the ones that mattered anyway, but in her youth she went to London and thoroughly slutted her way about the partying crowd there in the 1920's, after she died she left me some money which allowed me to buy the only new car I've ever had. Of course my family couldn't figure out why she would have left me a bad smell let alone that much cash..... Maybe it's because I kept my trap shut.

Miriam was a very naughty young lady and now she's a very naughty old lady. The naughtiness abides.
