Sky has released the official trailer for the second season of Tea With Judi Dench. In this new season, the Oscar-winning actress welcomes Sir Ian McKellen to her home.
Sky has today confirmed that Tea with Judi Dench returns to Sky Arts with legendary guest Sir Ian McKellen on Monday 31st August.
Following its success last year, the brand-new special, produced by Mindhouse, will continue the celebration of extraordinary conversations, storytelling and friendship. This time, Judi welcomes one of Britain’s most celebrated performers, Sir Ian McKellen, to her home.
A WARM AND CANDID CONVERSATION
Dame Judi Dench is joined by her great friend for tea and a warm, candid conversation about their extraordinary lives both on stage and off. They discuss everything from Shakespeare, stage fright, and the insecurities of acting to the worldwide fame of The Lord of the Rings and James Bond movies. Also, they reflect on success, failure, and the importance of never taking either too seriously. Along the way, Ian speaks movingly about coming out, his defining role in the fight against Section 28, and one of his greatest regrets. Namely, he regrets never sharing the truth about himself with his parents.
The premiere episode of Tea with Judi Dench featured Sir Kenneth Branagh. The two swapped star-studded stories from their careers at her Surrey home. This episode captivated audiences with its warmth, wit and insight.
