Miranda Hart appeared in a Red Nose Day segment which saw her take on a different challenge every day for the last month.
The idea was spawned from her book Miranda’s Daily Dose of Such Fun!, which offers 365 ideas of small activities that can help brighten up each day, while also helping to spread joy to others.
Hart’s segment saw her wear a scarf she’d never worn before “with gay abandon”, while also recreating a hotel service in her own bathroom by giving the toilet roll a “pointy tip”,
However, the undeniable highlight of Hart’s challenges was to read Jane Austen’s classic Pride and Prejudice with a special guest: Colin Firth, who played Mr Darcy in the 1995 BBC series. As she insisted, she “definitely did not try to kiss Colin Firth”.
The bit was only one of many highlights of the evening, including parodies of Bodyguard and Mamma Mia!: Here We Go Again.
