Judi Dench

Just released news video highlights one of my all-time-favorite British actresses. Judi Dench is fighting Macular Degeneration.

She's such a talented lady. I imagine she's as tenacious as some of the characters she's played. There's not much better comedy than her As Time Goes By series, which ran on BBC for 67 episodes from 1992 - 2005.

I was privileged to see her perform on stage the last time I visited London.

Dench says that her vision is bad enough already that family members read her lines aloud for her as she's preparing a role.
