Viewers were left in stitches by Miriam Margolyes as she appeared on tonight's Late Late Show.
Senator Lynn Ruane and Miriam joined Ryan Tubridy on the couch to discuss their summer holiday in a campervan, their shared love of the Aran Islands and their upcoming documentary about Lady Gregory. However, one comment from Miriam left Ryan red faced.
As Miriam commented that she would love to be Irish, she also told Ryan, "If I have to go down on someone I will" to get Irish citizenship. Ryan was left speechless as he laughed off her saucy proposition, RSVP reported.

"We will pass that offer on to the Department of Foreign Affairs!" he laughed. Viewers absolutely loved her on the show.
"If anyone wants a good laugh just watch back Miriam Margolyes' interview on the #LateLateShow - there's 'having no filter' and then there's Miriam - she's a gas woman!!," one viewer said.
"@MMargolyes is hilarious," wrote another. "Miriam Margolyes just came out with the best line I've ever heard on the late late show - if I have to go down on somebody I will," wrote another.
Another wrote: "Miriam Margolyes has brought the #LateLateShow into the 21st century I love that woman."
"If there's a funnier person on the planet than Miriam Margolyes, I've yet to encounter them. Literally crying in laughter here, plus she has fantastic politics," gushed another.
Another said: "Best bit of comedy for a while. Great double act! Ryan doesn't know where to look or what to say. Hilarious women."
