Beloved British actress Miriam Margolyes has once again captured the public's imagination, this time with a hilarious and frosty tale from a health farm retreat.
The Chilly Escapade
During a recent appearance on The Graham Norton Show, the 84-year-old star recounted a memorable incident where her spontaneity led to a formal reprimand. Margolyes described how, while enjoying the heat of a sauna, she was struck by the impulse to run outside into the snow.
She didn't just take a quick peek. The actress proceeded to run around completely naked in the freezing conditions, enthusiastically rolling on the ground and rubbing the cold snow all over herself.
The Aftermath and Official Rebuke
The spirited antics did not go unnoticed by the health farm's management. The director of the establishment subsequently scolded Margolyes for her behaviour.
She was explicitly instructed that her snowy, nude escapade was not to be repeated. The actress shared this anecdote with her characteristic candour and humour, much to the delight of the audience and host.
Promoting a New Chapter
This colourful story was shared while Margolyes was discussing her latest literary project. The incident is featured in her new memoir, 'The Little Book of Miriam', which promises to be filled with similarly frank and funny recollections from her long and vibrant career and life.
True to form, Miriam Margolyes continues to entertain and surprise, proving that age is no barrier to a mischievous spirit and a great story.
