Dame Judi Dench gets Lifetime Achievement award at European Oscars

London, Dec 8 (ANI): Hollywood actress Dame Judi Dench was honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award at the 21st annual European film awards in Copenhagen.

According to the Guardian, the European film industry honored the actress for "her outstanding body of work."

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 beauty was handed over the award by Danish actor Mads Mikkelsen, who played the villainous Le Chiffre in Casino Royale. (ANI)
