  1. This isn’t news. Margoyles is well known for doing this, and she isn’t wrong. She’s a national treasure and Jeremy Hunt is a well known see you next Tuesday.

  2. In case you can’t listen:

    When I saw him there I just said ‘you’ve got a hell of a job, the best of luck’.

    What I really wanted to say was ‘fuck you, you bastard’… but you can’t say that.

  3. “I wished Jeremy Hunt luck.

    … Luck, get it?

    Sounds almost exactly like fu-”

    🎶*Blackadder couldn’t hold his ^beeeeeer.
    The art of boozing, he’s not mastered.
    And I, your merry ball ^a^^deeeer,
    am also well and truly plastered.*🎵

  4. I saw a former conservative adviser on BBCN earlier saying that appointing Hunt is the smartest thing Truss has done since she took over, and accepting the job is the dumbest thing he’s ever done.

  5. There are two types of Graham Norton episodes. The ones with Miriam Margolyes in them and the ones without.

    This is not a surprise to anyone who has seen any of her episodes.

  6. Hunt ruined the NHS then had the nerve to be on the select panel reviewing his successors!

    I saw the interview today – he spoke about cutting services…. I could see the smirk on his face.

  7. I for one an shocked that such a word could be uttered by the perpetually sweet, always professional Miriam who to my knowledge has never done something like this live on TV before.

  8. The country is being destroyed from the inside, but you can’t express your emotions about it on the radio.

    So very British to be tight arsed about this.

  9. God knows how anyone thinks this idiot will be any better as Chancellor, his tenure as Health Secretary was a disaster.

  10. I have been swearing since the age of about 12 probably, I couldn’t give a shit if someone swore on life radio/TV. I find it weird that it’s such a big thing.

  11. Miriam Margolyes is awesome. She should have a free pass to swear on live TV as much as she wanta.

    Honestly surprised it wasn’t another “Jeremy Cunt” slip up.

  12. I absolutely love Miriam! I so wish i could just have a lunch with her, she seems great to talk to! It’d be so nice being around someone who i don’t have to mind how i talk too haha

  13. Margolyes constantly swears and then plays the dithering old woman act it’s the main reason she’s asked on TV.
    She can be quite funny to watch though.
