Description
Based on the semi-autobiographical writings of rising UK comedy star Miranda Hart (Not Going Out, Absolutely Fabulous), Miranda is the hilarious, critically-acclaimed BBC sitcom screened locally on ABC2. Miranda has always stood out from the crowd. She's over six foot tall, lacks any kind of grace and has an odd habit of dancing in inappropriate situations. She lives in her own chaotic world, making a living by owning a joke shop which is managed by her best friend and taskmaster Stevie (Sarah Hadland: Moving Wallpaper, That Mitchell and Webb Look). She tries desperately to fit in with her old boarding school friends (Sally Phillips: Smack the Pony, Bridget Jones's Diary and Katy Wix: Torchwood, Not Going Out) who still refer to her as ‘Queen Kong' and seem more concerned with their BlackBerries and upcoming weddings than with Miranda's feelings. Her mother Penny (Patricia Hodge: Rumpole of the Bailey, Poirot) is on a mission to get Miranda married, but a boarding school upbringing means Miranda is hopeless around men and her flirting skills leave a lot to be desired. When her old university pal Gary (Tom Ellis: EastEnders) becomes the chef at the restaurant next door, Miranda embarks on all kinds of hapless attempts to spark a ‘romantic moment'. Brimming with warmth and featuring the best of British comedy talent, Miranda tracks the hysterical and unpredictable journey of a character you can't help but fall in love with.
