I wish I could see the entire episode. I work at Kronborg Castle and I was at work the day she was there - not all of us got to meet her in person, just watched from a distance... but still it felt like a royal visit and such an honor to have this Dame visit our castle. And so interesting with her family history too! :)
Talk about mind-blowing! To see Rosenkrantz and Gildenstern show up in her family tree must have left her breathless-... I want to see the rest of this. Great series.
Let's face it, we all know that Dame Judi possesses Shakespeare in a way no other actress in history ever did. Now we know that her vocation is mystical, and this explains everything about Dame Judi's utter uniqueness as a Shakespearean.
Love Dame Judy - often seen her inside Waitrose supermarket near her home. My partner sat next to her in a shoe shop and they were talking about each others shoes that they were trying on. She is a totally natural person in real life - no heirs and graces about her at all. Mrs Brown was my favourite film of hers. Great - one off actress in all her appearances. A True National Treasure... Keep Smiling Everyone... RSN.
i ws on a school trip nerely 50 y ears asgo in Strtford upoin Avon. As we were looking at the theatre she came out of rehersals, baggy jumper and trousers on and bought loads of postcards in the shop. We were starstruck. lol. beautiful smile then and now.
You can just see she is down too earth. Love her attitude on interviews she does she comes across so funny. Great actress. Great watching her on the Graham norton shows.😄🇬🇧
I'm so glad Dame Judy Dench found out this information. Fascinating programme - I was virtually 'glued' to the TV screen. How can it be just a 'coincidence' that Hamlet was her first role? There's got to be some greater power at work here somehow hasn't there?... RSN...
What a fascinating story! I love history. Amazing how people can be connected across centuries and generations. Dying to see the full episode. Judi's reactions are priceless; loved watching the emotions and incredulity in her face.
Good actors are a dime a dozen. Great actors are hard to come by but,legends like Dame Judi Dench are rare. There’s something that’s so very precious about that woman! You don’t have to be near or know her to feel at ease around her. Remarkable Lady!
I had the privilege of seeing Dame Judy , and her husband Michael Williams in Stratford upon Avon, at the Theatre in about 1963/4? What a great week to see many wonderful actors performing so many different plays. The sets were shaped like large crates and the actors all wore black and just added costume embellishments to denote the characters they were playing. Dame Judy is one of my most favourite actresses and a wonderful, funny lady!
Such a wonderful lady Dame Judy is. I live 'across the pond' in America and first saw her in a British comedy series and have liked her ever since so very much.
The Dame looks so completely enthralled with this information. How exciting for her! Really lovely to see the thoughts and emotions racing through her plainly on her face. 🤭
She has very special ways she conducts herself so well and makes her seem to be one of regal heritage, or of royalty. She always has held herself in this way. Things in life are often meant to be and glad she found it at least at this tie in her life.
This episode from start to finish was hugely entertaining……and like many a great drama it had a plot twist no one saw coming but was so perfect for Judi. On a side note….if you’re one of the few people who still watch Aussie soap Neughbours, you’d be surprised to learn that the actress playing Terese Robinson is Judi’s cousin!
Its a pity these kinds of shows are nit available worldwide. Such knowledge, such informations is very much of importance esp to those who are into it.
"AS TIME GOES BYE" WATCHING THE DVD SERIES NOW LOVE HER SHE IS SUCH A NATIONAL TREASURE...AND JUST SEEMS TO BE THE MOST FANTASTIC PERSON....LOVE FROM THE MIDWEST!!!
Oh yezzzzzz fans, we still have to learn so much from great Maestro Shakespeare, you can bet on it fans. How to warn everybody, how human life is short, no need to murder each other but giving a meaning of life even death and grief, you are helping a lot guys, big loving hug awesome adorable living legend Lady Dench, never stop believe in, fans love youuuuu
What an amazing discovery. I’m constantly surprised by the more I find out about my own ancestors as cities (and objects created in those places) I’ve always been drawn to were the ancestral homes of my family. It’s extraordinary how we can be pulled in directions by the actions of those who came before us
AND Dame Judi won Best Supporting Actress for her role as Queen Elizabeth I in Shakespeare in Love, an hysterically funny movie set in 1593 (the year Christopher Marlowe died). It's a movie version of historical fiction since the names of the lead characters (theatre owners, actors) are people who really lived and most likely all knew knew Shakespeare. Look them up on Wikipedia. Better yet, take college courses on Shakespeare, theatre at that period of history, historical events of that time, and then listen to the dialogue and events talked about in the movie and you will realize how brilliant the script is for the layers of subtlety, dialogue, double entendre when one knows the history of the era.
I love this stuff, and yes many people who originate from Europe can all trace their lineage back to Charlemagne, as can many of English or French ancestry trace back to at least a connection to William the Conqueror, the population was much smaller back then, but its just so fascinating, especially when someone is drawn to a particular era or person or place or talent or calling etc and it seems to be prominent and make a strong imprint on this current life only to find that there is a close ancestral connection. Its fascinating and Dame Judi Dench is such a kind and colourful character herself.
Fascinating story and family connections. Coincidentally, the Danish researcher looks rather like Tilda Swinton, especially when she laughs at Judi's joke about 'the man who pays the rent'.
There were also a couple of cousins named Rosenkrantz and Guildenstern who visited Britain circa 1590. Two young Danish aristocrats doing a European tour was probably more uncommon then and would have been much talked about I think. They were cousins to Tycho Brahe. Between that and William Kempe performing at Elsinore the names for Hamlet make a lot of sense.
Dont forget that there is a thousand year old myth about a Danish prince, who set out to revenge his father by playing crazy....untill he got his revenge. The prince, in the Danish myth, was called Amled.
Looks obviously carry on down generations. i once saw a BBC programme where a skull was unearthed on a farm, I think in Suffolk or Norfolk in England. The team reconstructed the face and lo and behold the current farmer, who knew the farm had been in his family historically for hundreds of years, looked like the same person. It was eary really. The skull was dated to be from Saxon times. Incredible. This seemed to lead to the conclusion the family had indeed been farming there since at least that time - maybe prior to that... continuously.. Father to son.
I wish I could see the entire episode. I work at Kronborg Castle and I was at work the day she was there - not all of us got to meet her in person, just watched from a distance... but still it felt like a royal visit and such an honor to have this Dame visit our castle. And so interesting with her family history too! :)
You can we do you live if you live in the uk it is on bbc iPlayer
Wish we had them in the US, can only get a few early seasons. Would pay for BBC iPlayer if we could…
@@hollyrobson6934 since I work at the Kronborg Castle, which is in Denmark, BBC is not something I can just watch :)
Nu har jeg kun lige set nogle få klip på UA-cam, men var hun på besøg inde i slottet? Ville også gerne se afsnittet, bor i Helsingør selv
@@90skid97 Ja hun var der i nogle timer hvor de filmede forskellige steder :)
I’m so happy for Dame Judy, she seemed overwhelmed , it must have been such a delight for her to feel so close to her ancestors.
* Judi
This was a fantastic episode. It must have been so surreal for her to discover all this
Dame Judy is a tenacious one. I am glad she is keeping herself well.
Talk about mind-blowing! To see Rosenkrantz and Gildenstern show up in her family tree must have left her breathless-... I want to see the rest of this. Great series.

Well put. Dame Judi is Shakespeare's voice on Earth
Gave me goosebumps. What a great lady Dame Judy Dench is.

There’s something that’s so very precious about that woman!
You don’t have to be near or know her to feel at ease around her.
Remarkable Lady!
Dame Judy Dench: class, charm, talent, feimininity!
I watched the full show. This twist at the end was wonderful.
Fascinating connection of Dame Judy’s ancestral connections to Danish royalty and Shakespeare.

Dame Judi Dench... A true and valued treasure of humanity.
Such a wonderful lady Dame Judy is. I live 'across the pond' in America and first saw her in a British comedy series and have liked her ever since so very much.
Good grief! It's too much to wrap my head around! What Dame Judi must've felt - one revelation after another!
Dame Judi always makes me feel like she would be a wonderful friend xxx
The Dame looks so completely enthralled with this information. How exciting for her! Really lovely to see the thoughts and emotions racing through her plainly on her face. 🤭
Well I expect no less. This is The Great Lady Dame Judy Dench. ❤️
God I can’t wait to see this in its entirety - what an incredible story she has.

It’s now on YT 👀😊
Marvellous - thank you.
She has very special ways she conducts herself so well and makes her seem to be one of regal heritage, or of royalty. She always has held herself in this way. Things in life are often meant to be and glad she found it at least at this tie in her life.
Dame Judi Dench was not simply blown away finding out all of this... she was sent into space. Her body language is PRICELESS.
I’m actually crying, love Judi Dench and I loved this video 🙂
*I am, too. Wow. I love Judi Dench as an actor. But I think she, based on these snippets I'm seeing, is also a most wonderful human being.*
@@anjaplushenka5995 indeed, a very tender soul 🙂
So wonderful to learn about Dame Judy Dench's deep...deep...deep connection
to what she is doing with so much passion ❣
Really want to give her a very big hug♥️♥️♥️
I just knew this great Dame had great history behind her. The ancestors amazing
I wish I could see the entire episode. This small portion was fascinating.
I love her reaction.
What a fitting revelation for a lady who's put in so much service for Mr. Shakespeare of Stratford.
Soooo loved you in recent movie as queen..you were truly magnificent and I would have fallen for Abdul's eyes too! Bravo👏👏👏❤️

i love Judy Dench, having watched her on tv for many years it would be lovely to meet her. Bless you Judy xx
Its a pity these kinds of shows are nit available worldwide. Such knowledge, such informations is very much of importance esp to those who are into it.
Her first role was as Ophelia - now we know it was written in the stars.
She’s a marvellous woman on so many levels 💛
"AS TIME GOES BYE" WATCHING THE DVD SERIES NOW LOVE HER SHE IS SUCH A NATIONAL TREASURE...AND JUST SEEMS TO BE THE MOST FANTASTIC PERSON....LOVE FROM THE MIDWEST!!!
The lineage and the legacy of a living legend. The alchemy of a destiny that is Dame Judi Dench. For me, no finer actor on the planet.
That’s so fricking amazing. No wonder Dame Judi is so awesome with those incredible genes. WOW
This is absolutely fascinating. Holy moly.

Hello to you! Thank you for joining us! Good health to you and yours!
THIS IS FREAKING INCREDIBLE.
It is so wonderful for Dame Judi Dench
What an amazing discovery.
I’m constantly surprised by the more I find out about my own ancestors as cities (and objects created in those places) I’ve always been drawn to were the ancestral homes of my family.
It’s extraordinary how we can be pulled in directions by the actions of those who came before us
All these connections to Helsingor, Rosencrantz, and Guildenstern make it seem as though Judi Dench's connection to Shakespeare was fated.
incredibly interesting - how wonderful for Judi to have this information....
Absolutely amazing! Congratulations!
Wooow crazy and she has carried on the line effectively by acting his plays . He would be very proud of her . 👍
Wow what a fascinating family history, I would of been overwhelmed with the news!
This gave me goosebumps!
Dame Judy Dench is an actress of the highest caliber. She reminds me of my grandmother:)
Just amazing.

Dame Judi Dench is now also Dane Judi Dench

Actually the point is that not many can trace that lineage - most have it, but few can prove it.
Very interesting! I'm American and also a big fan of Dame Judi Dench💕
This is simply fascinating!
What a national treasure is Dame Judi!
what beautiful blue eyes she has and what an amazing personality. I like Judy Dench. She is a super actress.
Nice video!!! Very engaging from beginning to end😍😍
Anyone who loves Shakespeare and Dame Judy's unsurpassed acting will find this an emotional clip.
I am also related to the Guildensterns! So I am realted to Dame Judi, too! OMG!!!
The subtitles are all over the place. Apparently Tiger Bra, from Helsinki inspired Shakespear to write Hamlet of El Salvador.
I love finding who and why we are who we are..
I love this for her.
💞
The grandest DaME Judi Dench 🌟🎬🎭🎥📺
Is adored around the world ,
Love her , she's a jewel in a crown💎👑
What a connection!
She needs to perform Hamlet again after discovering all this.
A bit to old for Ophelia now though!
@@kallivino8346 Gertrude maybe?
I love her so much. It was a dream of mine to see her on stage someday.
Fascinating story and family connections. Coincidentally, the Danish researcher looks rather like Tilda Swinton, especially when she laughs at Judi's joke about 'the man who pays the rent'.
What a family 😮❤
I love Judi Dench💕
I was more impressed that she's related to Tycho Brahe.
Astonishing!
Love her!!

what a tangled web out histories are. what tales, what surprises, what facts we can tease out if we only look...
Fascinating. I have a connection as well. William Shakespeare is my 6th cousin, 16x removed :)
I always knew Judi was a Scandi ❤️🇩🇰
WOW!!!
Dét her er meget, meget fascinerende!
I have goosebumps
Fascinating
I had the honour to see sir Derek jacobi on his first night as hamlet and then went to kronerberg Castle to see him again
Wonderful
When I clicked on this video, I was intending to watch another impersonation by Tracey Ullman
Wow that's awesome!!
She is a treasure
WOW!!! As a side note, is that the voice of the Inimitable and Cunning Baldrick (Sir Tony Robinson) narrating??
Absolutely amazing, I got tingles for her too!!
Wow!
I remember seeing her grandson and the engraving of her ancestor looked very similar facially - or so I think anyway.
Looks obviously carry on down generations. i once saw a BBC programme where a skull was unearthed on a farm, I think in Suffolk or Norfolk in England. The team reconstructed the face and lo and behold the current farmer, who knew the farm had been in his family historically for hundreds of years, looked like the same person. It was eary really. The skull was dated to be from Saxon times. Incredible. This seemed to lead to the conclusion the family had indeed been farming there since at least that time - maybe prior to that... continuously.. Father to son.
I’m such a dweep …. I cry like every minute in this episode….
Wow
