Speaking on an interview on ITV's This Morning, the 85-year-old star joked, "I’m not allowed any time off, I’ve got to go on and then he says ‘No, we are not ready to film yet’ and I have to go on doing it until I get it right, quite right!"

Admitting that she was "squeamish" about having her photograph taken for the globally famous publication, Judi said the photoshoot for the cover was a "lovely" experience.
"Wehad the most lovely day and it was very relaxed. It was at the very beginning of the year," she said.
"I was taken there and put in wonderful clothes and there were two wind machines – that was my favourite."
