Miranda Hart Author

Miranda Hart is a comedy writer and actress hailed recently as the 'Queen of Comedy', a role she thinks should be officially appointed by the Queen and means you get to go out once a week with Prince Harry.
She is best known for her hugely successful sitcom Miranda which ran for four series on the BBC and earned her three RTS Awards, four British Comedy Awards, plus four BAFTA nominations.

Her status as one of the UK's leading actresses was consolidated when she graced the screens with her much loved role, Chummy, in the hit BBC 1 drama series Call the Midwife. She earned a BAFTA nomination for her performance and won an NTA Award and two TV Choice Awards.

She recently starred in her first movie alongside Melissa McCarthy playing Nancy in the movie Spy directed by Paul Feig which was No 1 at the Box Office for three weeks when it came out in June 2015.

As a stand-up comedian, in 2014, Miranda completed a sell out stand-up arena tour My, What I Call, Live Show culminating in five shows at the London's 02 (the accompanying DVD was the second highest selling stand-up DVD of that year).
