What happens

Dame Judi Dench is an English actress who has worked in theatre, television, and film. Dench made her professional debut in 1957 with the Old Vic Company. Over the following few years, she played in several of Shakespeare's plays in such roles as Ophelia in Hamlet, Juliet in Romeo and Juliet, and Lady Macbeth in Macbeth. She branched into film work, and won a BAFTA Award as Most Promising Newcomer for the film Four in the Morning (1965); however, most of her work during this period was in theatre. Over the next two decades, she established herself as one of the most significant British theatre performers, working for the National Theatre Company and the Royal Shakespeare Company. In television, she achieved success during this period, in the series A Fine Romance from 1981 until 1984 and in 1992 began a continuing role in the television romantic dramedy series As Time Goes By that lasted until 2005. Her film appearances were infrequent until she was cast as M in GoldenEye (1995), a role she continued to play in James Bond in films through to Spectre (2015). The decision to portray M as female is often rumoured to have been inspired by the then-head of MI5, Stella Rimington. She has starred in many acclaimed films since then, and won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress in 1999 for Shakespeare in Love (1998). She has earned seven other nominations, for the films Mrs Brown (1997), Chocolat (2000), Iris (2001), Mrs Henderson Presents (2005), Notes on a Scandal (2006), Philomena (2013), and Belfast (2021). She has also received a cumulative total of 27 BAFTA nominations: fifteen for film and twelve for television, winning six and four respectively, for a grand total of ten altogether. Aside from her aforementioned Newcomer win, her other BAFTA Film Award wins include A Room with a View (1985), A Handful of Dust (1988), Mrs Brown (1997), Shakespeare in Love (1998), and Iris (2001). Her BAFTA TV Award wins include Talking to a Stranger (1966), The Cherry Orchard (1981), A Fine Romance (1981–1984), and The Last of the Blonde Bombshells (2000). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
