Judi dench, welcome to this cultural life. Thank you, john. You were born in 193a and grew up in york. Set the scene for us. What was family life like . My father was a doctor. And i had two brothers, older than me. And of course, at that time, no television, nothing like that. So we all had bikes and we made our own entertainment. My second brother, jeff, only ever wanted to be an actor. My oldest brother wanted to be a doctor, like dad, and i wanted to be a designer, scenic designer. Thats what i set out to be.
