At 85, the ‘Notes On a Scandal’ star appeared on the June edition of the 100-year-old publication and her work enthusiasm still remains intact and isn’t limited to posing for fashion magazines.

With four upcoming releases under her belt, the cherished artist of movies hates even the thought of retirement. “No, no, no, no. Don’t use that word, Giles. Not in this house. Not in here. Wash your mouth out.”

Six decades of entertaining us with her marvellous performances, Dame Judi Dench isn’t done yet – and we’re blessed to have her.
