Miriam Margolyes angered This Morning viewers today with her behaviour on the hit daytime show.
The 84 year old was on the show to discuss her new book and tour. However, as usual when Miriam is involved, things soon descended into chaos!
Miriam Margolyesâ antics upset This Morning viewers
Todayâs edition of the show saw Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley welcome Miriam onto the famous sofa.
Things got off to a hilarious start, with Miriam clearly feeling peckish as she was seen tucking into a raw onion.
The star gushed over her experiences at the Edinburgh Fringe, as well as a recent trip to Blackpool, all whilst munching on her onion.
âI did a poo test this morning,â she then told Ben and Cat. However, she didnât want to into details other than to tell people they âmust have a poo test! Itâs very important! It can save your lifeâ.
She also said it had taken a bit longer than sheâd wanted, and sheâd put her sample in a âperfume bag to soften the blowâ.
âI donât mean to be crudeâ
Discussing her new book, Miriam said that sheâd initially wanted a ruder title for it.
âI donât mean to be crude. I think of myself as quite sophisticated. But out pop these things, you know, what can I do?â she said.
Miriam then went on to talk about how Arnold Schwarzenegger once passed wind in her face during the filming of the 1999 movie End of Days.
âIt was vile!â she fumed. âI didnât like it. If youâve got to go, youâve got to go, but donât aim it at someone.â
She then went on to say how sheâs passed wind âquietlyâ at Buckingham Palace in the past.
Miriam then went on to gush over the royal family, and spoke about an incident where she almost pulled the Queen to the floor after losing her balance during a handshake.
She also discussed her lodgers, who she explained help her get in and out of her bra in the morning and in the evening.
Viewers criticise Miriam
However, some viewers werenât too impressed with Miriamâs crude stories and behaviour on todayâs show.
âI canât stand this woman. Sheâs just vile,â one viewer fumed. âStop chomping on that onion, with your mouth open, and talking at the same time, you ill-mannered old bat,â another snapped.
âI didnât put the TV on to see Miriam Margolyes talking with her mouth full about poo tests,â a third wrote.
âOh, foxtrot off, Margolyes, you disgusting woman,â another tweeted. ââI donât mean to be crudeâŠâ yes you do,â a fifth cynical viewer said.
However, there was, as always, plenty of love for Miriam today.
âMiriam Margolyes is so funny, love seeing her on,â one viewer said.
âMany people disagree, but I bloody love Miriam Margolyes, I could listen to her stories for days!â another wrote.
âMiriam is great. So far from the usual fakes who pretend to be perfect,â a third tweeted.
