Dame Judi Dench Gets Lifetime Achievement Award
The 21st annual European film awards honored the actress Dame Judi Dench with the prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award held in Copenhagen.

The European film industry honored the actress for "her outstanding body of work." according to the Guardian. Born in Yorkshire, the beauty was delighted to receive the award and revealed that she had never visited Denmark before, but added: "This is a surprise because I have some Danish blood in my ancestry."


"I have been acting for 51 years now. So I hope lifetime achievement means more than 51 years, because I'm about to do a play in my 52nd year. It would be nice to think it's not all over," she said. The award was handed over by by Danish actor Mads Mikkelsen, who played the villainous Le Chiffre in Casino Royale.
