The 'Miranda' and 'Call The Midwife' star will narrate and make a cameo in her mother Dee Hart Dyke's new gardening show, 'Down The Garden Path With Dee Hart Dyke'.

She told The Sun: "I may not know a thing about how to garden but my mum is amazing.

"She fills me with immense joy and laughter as she talks about her passion. The innuendos in gardening never seem to stop."

The three-part show is being made by 44-year-old Miranda and her friend David Walliams' company King Bert Productions and will air on More4.

And Miranda is excited for her mother to take centre stage. After it was reported that she will star on the show, Miranda tweeted: "Sorry but it's my Mum fronting the new show. I narrate only and make a tiny cameo. She's amazing though! Hope you like (sic)."

Meanwhile, is preparing to make her West End debut in 'Annie' later this month.

The actress will appear as orphanage manager Miss Hannigan in the musical when it opens at the Piccadilly Theatre in London.

She said: "Miss Hannigan is a dream role, and certainly has been for me, but I never thought it would be a reality. But here we are and I have a newly found musical theatre-esque spring in my step!

"I hope people will leave the theatre feeling life is a little better and dreamier and jollier after watching it, as much as we feel that performing it. Now if you'll excuse me, I have some leg-warmers to put on."

Miranda will join the cast for previews from May 23, ahead of opening night on June 5. And the comedienne will take on the starring role until September 17, with the musical continuing its run until January 6, 2018.
