Endearingly eccentric ' WOMEN'S WEEKLY From declaring my love to Vanessa Redgrave to being fed
cockroaches by Steve Buscemi from turnip-based comedy with Blackadder to being farted on by
Arnold Schwarzenegger from Graham Norton's sofa to Alan Cumming's camper van my life has been
(and continues to be) an uproarious adventure. Oh Miriam! has been such a constant refrain in
my life said in all kinds of tones - laughs surprised gasps and orgasmic sighs (I'm hoping
for all of those from you as you read on!) - that it had to be the title of this book. And with
a cast list that stretches from Churchill to DiCaprio Dahl to Dietrich Princess Margaret to
Maggie Smith I've so much more to tell you and so much more to say. My chapters range from
'How to Stay Married' to 'Don't Let the Bastards Get You Down'. Discover how to break the
thickest conversational ice why swearing is actually good for you (though not on the Today
programme) the unexpected things I learned at school and what my Spice Girl name would be. Not
to mention my Tale of the Unexpected and my very own Vagina Monologue. Buckle up and join me
on another unforgettable adventure but this time through my heart and head . . .
