Darling Judi. A celebration of judi Dench

Judi Dench is one of Britain's best-loved actresses. Her performances range from Shakespeare (most recently in All's Well That Ends Well for the RSC) to television comedy such as A Fine Romance and As Time Goes By, and the cinema, where she starred in Mrs Brown, Iris, The Shipping News, won an Oscar for her performance in Shakespeare in Love, and played the role of M in four James Bond films. Here, contributors such as Billy Connolly, Barbara Leigh-Hunt, lan Richardson, Martin Jarvis, Trevor Nunn and Richard Eyre each reveal a different aspect of her nature to give a unique portrait of the legend that is Judi Dench.
