Acting for Others Presents...

Miriam Margolyes and Sir Derek Jacobi

Our favourite uproarious octogenarians come together for a very entertaining episode, taking in everything from Derek’s late-onset stagefright, Miriam’s first years out of the closet, being mentored by Laurence Olivier, working with Alec Guiness, Harold Pinter’s sizable member, an embarrassing moment involving Boris Karloff’s widow, a tale about Oscar Wilde, being broken by sadistic directors, spending time on location with Joaquin Phoenix and Russell Crowe, Miriam’s Jewish ancestry and so much more… Introduced by Samantha Bond.
