100%. And a very good friend allegedly. Kenneth Williams adored her. They were 'Soulmates'. Great interview on Parkinson with Dame Maggie, Williams and Sir John Betjeman. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

Very private person. But 'outstanding, strong and genius' would be massive understatements. In her case... Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

The actor's job is to become someone else. Mag had more options than Olivier. Becoming a Queen, an addict/confused or a pompouse fool . Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

She is mentioned a lot in the diaries. I wouldn't call them soulmates though. In the late 70s and early 80s, KW pushed everyone aside apart from his mother, yet she was becoming a burden on him. KW, was friends with a gay couple pretty much of the blue he told them not to come round anymore, it was becoming too domestic. KW needed a slap for that.

If KW didn't kill his father then Louie did

Many brilliant performances but I am going to re watch The Lady In The Van this week, because I love her performance, and the compassion of Alan Bennett, who allowed the real Lady In the Van to live in his driveway.

If he had that much compassion, then wouldn't he let her stay in the house and not in a van in the driveway. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

But even so, I don't think his reaction would be typical today... Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.
