Yes! She's one of the best. She had a good TV series, "As Time Goes By."

Amen!

She was phenomenal in "Mrs. Brown". And Billy Connolly was also superb.

Has anyone here ever watched any Judi Dench movies? Quite the actress! My wife and I watched Ladies in lavender earlier this evening. A compelling drama to say the least.


Anything with Judi Dench is worth watching!

Dame Judi Dench cannot do wrong IMHO. See her in 'Philomena'. Also Dame Maggie Smith is a fabulous actor of TV (Downton Abbey) and Film (Prime of Miss Jean Brodie) to give just two examples of her work. Wonderful characters.

One of the finest actresses ever.

I think one of the best Dame Judy Dench movies was Philomena. It is a true story of the scandal of enforced adoption practices in Ireland. It combines a great deal pathos with some most amusing moments

She is a wonderful actress. I do believe she was M in at least one of Daniel Craig's Bond films.


Judi Dench played M in seven Bond films over 17 years, from GOLDENEYE (1995) to SKYFALL (2012) and made a cameo in SPECTRE (2015).

No spoiler alert, but in the first movie Maggie Smith has the best line....you'll know it when it happens.


I liked Maggie's "I don't make plans......, I don't even buy green bananas".

Dame Dench is brilliant. She has had many lead roles in British productions, some of which have been broadcast on PBS over the years.

She is the consummate actress, right up there with Maggie Smith. You have tempted my curiosity, I must see Ladies in Lavender.

Dame Judi Dench is a wonder, an extremely talented actress. I've seen numerous movies in which she has participated and enjoyed her characterizations and performances.
