I think they’ve given her a bit of a MODOK vibe actually.

A composite picture with the headline “Cheltenham Literature Festival line-up announced” superimposed on the top. In the picture itself are some lazily photoshopped celebrities presumably illustrating said line-up; there’s Graham Norton, Richard Osman, Joanna Lumley, etc. They are all different sizes because getting identically-sized photos would be a moderate amount of work. For this reason Miriam Margolyes is a huge head floating frighteningly behind and above everyone else. In this picture I have replaced her hair and neck with the armour and floating chair of MODOK, the super-intelligent (and giant-headed) man-mind created by AIM scientists through the use of advanced mutagenics.

Miriam is a giant in comparison to many children's authors and "campaigners" I could think of.

That's what eating Spanish onions like apples does for you. There was originally someone behind her in this pic, but he was absolutely blown away (also what eating Spanish onions like apples does for you)

I'd guess about a 2 on the Osman scale.
