I have just heard that the acting profession has lost
one of its finest, Margaret Tyzack, known as Maggie
to all her fellow actors.
I began my career on television with Maggie, playing
to her Cousin Bette. Then a whole lifetime and many
roles later, both hers and mine, we played together onstage in Phedre. It was as if no time had passed.
Maggie was still the kind, indomitable, funny, wry, generous person she was in 1971.
Mirren also played a Mary Shelley who’d just published Frankenstein. It was revealed that she’d based the monster in the novel on her landlord, a
green, neck-bolted Frank Stein (Fred Armisen, borrowing freely from Peter Boyle in Young Frankenstein).
In the season 3 finale of Parks and Recreation, Mullally's character reappeared just in time to get word from
Donna that Ron's first wife, "Tammy 1," was literally in the building. That was enough to send Tammy 2, who
herself is a frighteningly unhinged woman, sprinting away in fear. The P&R audience caught a glimpse of the
first wife's errant elbow through a window, left to wonder as one of the show's many finale cliffhangers:
Mirren recently topped a poll of the world's hottest women over 50. The 65-year-old actress caused a stir in
2008 after she was snapped showing off her svelte figure in a bikini and it seems fans are still impressed by
her looks, placing her first in the "Hotter Than Ever Women Over 50" survey for home shopping retailer Isme.com.
