The Life of You - Miriam Margolyes on Bowel Health, Chocolate, and Why She’ll Never Retire

In this episode, Miriam Margolyes returns to share her thoughts on some of life’s most important essentials - from the unwavering significance of bowel health (and her father’s daily question growing up), to the necessity of people and the simple joy of chocolate. We also discuss the reality of the pelvic floor, getting older, and the comfort of ensuring the loo is never too far away! Expect laughter, honesty, and a dash of delicious shock. If you thought the main interview covered everything, think again – this episode is full of the golden moments only Miriam can provide.
