Judi Dench

More about the book

Whether it is her sunny temperament, her gift of laughter, her wide-ranging abilities, or all three, Judi Dench is without doubt a star. S hortlisted for a 1998 Hollywood Oscar for her performance as Queen Victoria in Mrs Brown, she then won an Oscar for her role as Queen Elizabeth in Shakespeare in Love. Judi Dench is widely loved and not only among the theatrical profession. Her long-running appearance opposite Geoffrey Palmer in the TV situation comedy As Time Goes By has run to four series and gained her a TV Times readers' award as the actress we most wish see more often on television. She juggles the National Theatre (a sell-out season in Sondheim's A Little Night Music and David Hare's Amy's View) with TV and films. This is a revised edition from the original paperback.
