Before her own series was commissioned, Hart made appearances in various BBC sitcoms, including Hyperdrive (2006–2007) and Not Going Out (2006–2009). She appeared as Camilla "Chummy" Fortescue-Cholmondeley-Browne in the BBC drama series Call the Midwife (2012–2015) and made her Hollywood debut in the action comedy film Spy (2015).
Hart has written five books: Is It Just Me? (2012), The Best of Miranda (2014), Peggy and Me (2016), Miranda Hart's Daily Dose of Such Fun! (2017), and I Haven’t Been Entirely Honest with You (2024).[2] In 2017, Hart presented the Royal Variety Performance in the presence of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, making her the first solo female presenter in 105 years.[3]
