Angela Lansbury - London, 95 Years Old

In a career spanning over eight decades, this British-American star has portrayed numerous television, film, and theater roles. Now Angela Lansbury is known to be one of the last surviving actors from the Golden Age of Hollywood! How blessed are we to have her thriving at 95?

Yet despite the numerous accolades, she has scored over the years, Angela's life was not always a bed of roses. In fact, the legendary actress went through massive highs and lows in her personal and professional lives. But one thing remains consistent to date; the indomitable Lansbury never gives up!

Donald Sutherland - 86

Do you ever come across times when you would suddenly remember Donald Sutherland from his early works like Citizen X, The Dirty Dozen, Kelly's Heroes, etc., and wonder what happened to him? If you do some maths, you may even be likely to think that he's passed on.

Well, let us clear that up and tell you that Sutherland is 85 years old, alive and well as he can be. He is still very much active on the screens, with a new film, Alone, and a miniseries on HBO, The Undoing, set to release with his works very soon. His sons, including Kiefer Sutherland, are also actors themselves.

Alfred Molina - London, 67 Years Old

Born in Paddington to Spanish immigrant father Esteban Molina and Italian immigrant mother Giovanna, Alfred Molina grew up among working-class people. Despite his humble roots, as a little boy, the young dreamer always wanted something more!

One fine day at the age of nine, he watched Spartacus and Alfred knew being on the other side of the screen was what he wanted to do for the rest of his life. The determined boy studied in drama school where his skills were polished, and the rest, as we know, is history at its best. And now at 67, Alfred is doing what he loves doing the most: acting!

 Anne Reid - Newcastle upon Tyne, 85 Years Old

Born in 1935 in Newcastle upon Tyne, England, to Colin Norman and Annie Eliza Weetman, Anne Reid grew up with her three elder brothers and parents in Redcar. Upon leaving Penrhose College, she moved to London to go to the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts, where the young performer learned the skills that would later help her serve in the industry.

This should come in as a surprise, but Anne got a job as a store manager before landing her first major role in Coronation Street. A decades-long award-winning career followed that! Now at 85, we envision a content grand dame with loads of stories to tell!

Anne Stallybrass - Essex, 82 Years Old

Born in Essex, Anne Stallybrass went to St. Bernard's Convent in Westcliff before spending three years strengthening her skills at the Royal Academy of Music. There, she even won the famous Drama Gold medal, which is quite the deal in the acting realm.

We know her best for starring in The Six Wives of Henry VIII and playing Anne in The Onedin Line. These days, Anne is living quite a serene life all by herself. That is because, despite being married twice, Stallybrass never had any children. But we are sure the revered actress has no regrets about such a successful life, one still talked about by the whole world.

Anthony Hopkins - Wales, 83 Years Old

Next on our list of famous Gilded age icons who are still alive is Sir Philip Anthony Hopkins, the world-famous Welsh actor, film producer, and director. He has received several accolades throughout his career, including four BAFTAs, two Academy Awards, and even two Emmys!

Yet red carpets and abundant wealth was not all Sir Anthony saw since day one. The A-list icon's father was a baker, and more than once, he looked at his father's beat-up hands and hoped for a better future. Then, all of Hopkins' hard work paid off, and his dreams came true. His dad must indeed be beaming down from heaven with pride.

Barbara Knox - Lancashire, 87 Years Old

Best known for playing the part of Rita Turner in ITV's famous soap, Coronation Street, Barbara Knox has had quite an impressive run in the entertainment industry. She made her acting debut in 1962 in a small theatre production. Yet today, at 87, Knox is known to be one of the longest-serving soap stars in the world! Honestly, how very impressive is that?

From theatre to television, this gilded age luminary has done it all, but despite the massive wealth she has, Barbara has not retired yet! In fact, she is very much active and takes up good projects as they come.

Charles Dance - Worcestershire, 74 Years Old

Born to a middle-class family in 1946, Charles Dance's father passed away when he was only three years old. Growing up, Dance went to the Widey Technical School, and when it was time for college, he studied photography and graphic design at the Leicester College of Arts, discovering his passion for acting in the process.

Charles made his debut on the big screen back in 1974 in Father Brown, the famous ITV series. Several decades and memorable characters later, the veteran thespian is prepping for Netflix's adaptation of The Sandman in 2021. The imposing Brit actor is thriving at 74, and we are impressed!

Charles Shaughnessy - London, 66 Years Old

One might recognize this handsome 90's hearthrob for his numerous portrayals on American TV like Maxwell Sheffield in the TV sitcom The Nanny and the part of Shane Donovan in Days Of Our Lives.

In addition to an exceptionally prosperous career, this star also has quite a remarkable personal life, one that is very rare in Hollywood. Charles has been married to Susan Fallender since 1983, and the couple has two grown-up children as well. We imagine an elegant older gentleman in his sixties, happy and healthy with many a fine Tinsel Town tale to tell.

Christina Pickles - Yorkshire, 86 Years Old

Christina Pickles made her debut in the acting scene in Washington DC's Arena Stage when she starred in Look Back In Anger in 1961, instantly managing to imprint on fans with her beauty and brains. The starlet then transitioned to Broadway in 1964, and her stint there, as one might guess, was also a massive success.

To the younger generation, Christina is mainly known for her portrayal of Judy Geller in NBC's hit sitcom Friends. Her ten years of guest appearances on the show were always a hit with audiences. In her late 80s today, Pickles will be starring in the upcoming Finding Hannah.

Derek Jacobi - London, 82 Years Old

Known for his "commanding" presence on stage, Sir Derek Jacobi has a distinguished and successful career to his name, and fans are delighted to have him around at 82. Derek appeared in many Shakespeare productions, including The Tempest, Twelfth Night, and Hamlet, for which he also earned many prestigious Theatre accolades.

Although Derek is primarily known as a stage actor, he also has various film credentials to his name, mainly Henry V, Othello, and Gladiator. Yet if you'd like to catch the esteemed Brit actor in an unusual role, check out his sitcom Vicious with fellow acting great Sir Ian McKellen; you're welcome!

Eileen Derbyshire - Urmston, 89 Years Old

English actress Eileen Derbyshire might be retired now, but she's got a truly tremendous acting career to look back on and be proud of. After all, Eileen did portray the character of Emily Bishop for more than fifty-five years in the immensely popular soap opera Coronation Street.

That achievement makes Eileen the longest-serving female star in the series and a true living legend. Granted, the celebrated dame is taking things a bit easier these days as she is almost ninety years old. However, Derbyshire still retains that spark that makes her so very special.

Elizabeth Rees-Williams - Cardiff, 85 Years Old

To Elizabeth Rees-Williams, the jet-set lifestyle of a celebrated socialite far outshone any other aspect of her time in the spotlight. Although Elizabeth did appear on the television show Question Time in 1979, her time on the small screen wouldn't really go any further after that.

Instead, Rees-Williams focused on all the social scene had to offer and made a name for herself in that regard. Now that Elizabeth is in her mid-eighties, the society dame has slowed things down a little when it comes to putting herself out there, but she remains as generous as ever.

Glenda Jackson - Birkenhead, 85 Years Old

When it comes to being a double-barreled threat, one need look no further than actress and politician Glenda Jackson. And don't let the fact that Glenda is nearing ninety fool you. She is still a tremendous force to deal with any day.

Over the years, Glenda has won two Academy Awards, made waves in the British political scene, and kept us in awe while doing so. So we're proud to say that Glenda is far from retiring. Her return to acting in 2015 after a brief hiatus has warmed the public's hearts, and we think it's going to be a while before this icon decides to retire.

Hugh Grant - London, 60 Years Old

Over the years, actor Hugh Grant has gone from a British romantic comedy star to a bad boy and everything in between. However, Hugh has persevered, and there is no doubt that the Cloud Atlas performer has become a true icon in the acting world.

Now at sixty years old, Hugh can look back on his past indiscretions and proudly state that he has learned from them instead of letting them get the better of him. All we can say is that we can't wait to see what role this incredible entertainer decides to take on next because it certainly will be entertaining.

Jacqueline Bisset - Weybridge, 76 Years Old

Jacqueline Bisset's career in entertainment started in 1965. Even though the actress now finds herself in her mid-seventies, she hasn't given any indication that she's willing to hang up her cloak.

During an illustrious career, Jacqueline has starred in numerous film and television productions, chief amongst those her role in the 1977 movie, The Deep, which bridged her gap to international stardom. Although in all this time, Jacqueline hasn't ever married. We find it strange that no one has tried to settle down with this screen legend, but we bet Bisset could change that if she wanted to.

Jeremy Irons - Cowes, 72 Years Old

When it comes to being a star in television, film, and theatre, there is no better example than actor extraordinaire Jeremy Irons. Since Jeremy landed his first significant film role in 1981, he has never needed to look back as wave after wave of parts on screen and stage came rolling in.

Even now that Irons is in his early seventies, the work is far from done, and it's going to be a long time before this talented individual hangs up his cape. With his recent appearance in season 2 of Umbrella Academy getting rave reviews, this esteemed industry veteran isn't going anywhere soon!

Jessica Benton - Undisclosed, 76 Years Old

We cannot tell you much about what actress Jessica Benton is up to these days as she's keeping her personal life pretty quiet. However, we can tell you that the performer rose to fame for her portrayal as Elizabeth Onedin in the acclaimed British series The Onedin Line.

Other than that, Benton, now in her seventies, had a few minor roles on television. Although none of those ever came close to the prominence she received from Onedin. After the show ended, Jessica's career in TV sort of did as well, but we reckon she's very proud of the work she did during that time.

Jim Broadbent - London, 71 Years Old

You might not know precisely who actor Jim Broadbent is, but once you've seen his face, you'll know that this legend has been crucial as a supporting actor in many a cast over the last few decades. In fact, Jim has won outstanding awards, including an Oscar for his supportive work.

We're also glad to say that Jim is far from being done with the entertainment industry. Seeing as he is only in his early seventies, Jim still has plenty of time to help his fellow stars achieve great heights in their careers while further impressing us with the tremendous talent he has.

Joely Richardson - London, 56 Years Old

Actress Joely Richardson might be in her mid-fifties now, but she's made the years count when it comes to furthering her career. Joely has done exceptionally well in the entertainment business, managing to reach international notoriety, which only the best of entertainers ever honestly can.

Richardson's starred in shows such as Nip/Tuck and movies like Red Sparrow, so we don't have to tell you that Joely is always ready to encapsulate any role that comes her way entirely. If this has been her career trajectory till middle age, we're guessing there is still a whole lot of Joely's talent left to see.

Judi Dench - York, 86 Years Old

We're willing to go as far as saying that there are very few actresses as renowned as Dame Judi Dench. During the course of her career, the sparkly-eyed actress has appeared on several television shows, acted in countless movies, and graced the most prominent stages in the world.

Of course, Judie reached international stardom with her role as M in the James Bond films, but she had been on the map in the UK long before that. It's a good thing Judie isn't looking to retire anytime soon, as most people her age would most certainly have thought about taking themselves out of the ring.

Julie Andrews – Surrey, 85 Years Old

Julie Andrews has earned a reputation in the TV and film industry, not just as a super talented actress but also as one of the oldest performers from glamorous old Hollywood, still alive. We're not sure there are many others out there with a career spanning over seventy years.

It is true that winning several awards and being the best in what she does has made Andrews worthy of emulation by younger actresses, but never have we seen anyone match her prowess so far. The legend now even takes up voice acting roles, proving there's no limit to how much Julie can achieve.

Julie Walters – Birmingham, 71 Years Old

Julie Walters is an English author, comedian, firm supporter of West Bromwich Albion Football Club. She is also the only actress who received a BAFTA award and an Oscar nomination for her very first big-screen role.

Walters became famous, starring in the comedy-drama Educating Rita before other projects like Billie Elliot, Sister My Sister, Stepping Out
and Personal Services increased her popularity even further. 71 now, we saw Walters' impeccable performance alongside Colin Firth in the 2020 fantasy drama, The Secret Garden, and it sure doesn't look like this enormously talented actress is retiring anytime soon.

June Brown – Suffolk, 94 Years Old

It sometimes seems unbelievable to think that June Brown contributed so well to the soap opera EastEnders even while she was already in her nineties. Well, she's said goodbye to the show now after a long time portraying Dot Cotton, yet fans of June and the beloved soap opera cannot help but miss her performance.

However, Brown's exit from the show doesn't mean retirement, which is terrific news for her fans. For an actress her age, June is very committed and dedicated, and it all falls back to her personality and willingness to do more.

Kevin McNally – Bristol, 65 Years Old

The famous Kevin McNally earned wide recognition for portraying Joshamee Gibbs in the series Pirates of the Caribbean. The savvy performer has also starred in hit movies like Robert The Bruce, The Spy Who Loved Me, The Man Who Knew Infinity, among several others.

Nonetheless, McNally's journey to fame didn't start in Hollywood; he has worked in theater and radio, gaining experience in entertainment and media. Kevin's list of accomplishments didn't include love matters until he met his wife Phyllis Logan in 1994. They got married in 2011 and continue to live happily with their son, David, these days.

Leonard Whiting – London, 70 Years Old

Leonard Whiting's singing career kicked off at 12 when he got spotted by a theatrical agent in a recording studio, getting an invite to audition for the musical Oliver! Leonard sang his heart out as Jack Dawkins in the long-running hit for 15 months, experiencing a rare breakthrough via thunderous applause every night.

Today, Leonard is famous for starring in the 1968 Zeffirelli film version of Shakespeare's acclaimed Romeo and Juliet. He would walk away with the best actor Golden Globe. In the highly successful years that have followed, Whiting appeared in many other projects until ostensibly retiring in 2015. The time seems ripe for a comeback!

Liam Neeson - County Antrim, 68 Years Old

There's no age limit to an action hero's career in Hollywood. And Liam Neeson has validated that fact with his remarkably choreographed fights in recent movies like Non-Stop, Honest Thief, and The Commuter. We best remember him for the iconic role of Oskar Schindler in the film Schindler's List and playing the lead in Next of Kin.

Neeson is still going strong at 63, both as a high-grossing actor and an activist. The A-lister has also served as a Goodwill Ambassador in the UNICEF. With his action-thriller The Ice Road soon to hit the theatres, we're sure that the fearless actor has no retirement plans yet!

Maggie Smith – Ilford, 86 Years Old

There is no denying that Maggie Smith is one of the most recognizable actresses in Britain. You can say that the star's career peaked in the late '50s and '60s with her breakthrough roles in The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie and Othello on the Broadway Theatre.

With the Triple Crowns of Acting among several other prestigious accolades in her possession- Smith's shelves must look regal! Next up, Maggie will reportedly feature in a rumored upcoming Harry Potter franchise sequel. Without a doubt, we know that the 86-year-old diva is gearing up to deliver another knockout performance!

Malcolm McDowell - Horsforth, 77 Years Old

 

With an incredible career spanning over five decades, Micheal McDowell solidified his status as one of the most successful actors in the '70s British films. We've seen his genius in movies like A Clockwork Orange, Time After Time and B***shell, which helped the star garner various accolades and numerous nominations.

Lately, Malcolm's fans have crazed over his first-rate performances in films like Blood on the Crown and The Big Ugly. When he's not acting, the Pact with the Devil stars works as a passionate voice-over artist. Even at 77, McDowell keeps himself busy with various projects. No wonder he is an inspiration to all budding actors!

Michael Caine – Rotherhithe, 88 Years Old

We bet you remember Micheal Caine for his great appearance in the rom-com Alfie, a role that positioned him as a notable player in the 60s British films. A recipient of numerous awards, Caine boasts of an impressive portfolio with blockbuster movies like Zulu, Sleuth, and The Cider House Rules to his credits.

The Oscar-winning star does not intend to slow down his career pace, which is quite evident from his incredible performance in the recent release Twist. As Caine’s fans, we are definitely rooting to see this acclaimed performer on our screens for many more years still to come!

Miranda Richardson - Southport, 63 Years Old

Nailing dramatic and comic roles, this Brit performer's acting career on stage, as well as screen, spans almost 40 years now. Miranda Richardson's brilliance is something that has remained intact throughout, winning her notable characters in hit movies like The Evening Star, The Crying Game, and The Apostle. But what you definitely would remember Richardson for is her appearance as Rose Arbuthnot in the film Enchanted April which won her a Golden Globe Award.

With her last mini-series Good Omens a hit, we're sure that the movie icon isn't bidding farewell to the film industry any time soon! Miranda's next venture is the upcoming animated feature The Magician's Elephant.

Pam St Clement - Harrow, 78 Years Old

Pam St Clement is widely regarded as an industry veteran and she is famously known for her portrayal of Pat Butcher in the BBC soap opera EastEnders, which ran for a record-breaking 26 years.

Pam started as a teacher, but slowly her career peddled towards the television industry where she transitioned into a fine actress. She is about to turn 79 soon, but the passing time hasn’t affected her on-screen grace at all. She still possesses all the charm and allure which wowed her fans back in the '80s and '90s.

Patrick Stewart - Mirfield, 80 Years Old

Patrick Stewart is truly one of the most iconic performers of his generation. Known for his work in X-Men, Star Trek: Next Generation, and Logan, Patrick has worked in over 70+ movies and television shows throughout his journey. And while the actor is almost 80 now, he shows no signs of slowing down.

According to the reports, the Mirfield-born actor is in talks with Marvel and Disney studios over continuing the portrayal of his role, Professor X in the X-Men series. So, his fans could surely expect to see the legendary actor on the big screen in the coming time.

Peter Dean - Hoxton, 82 Years Old

If there is a list of underrated actors of all time, then Peter Dean is surely in it. The British actor has been a part of the industry for more than half a decade now, working in series like Law and Order, Sweet William and EastEnders.

Usually shy from the media, Peter is one of those low-key actors who prefer to keep their personal life behind the curtains. This is probably the reason why he has not been actively working for the last few years. Yet, we cannot deny the fact that there is always a chance of a comeback, and we hope to see Dean back on the big screen soon.

Petula Clark - Ewell, 88 Years Old

Petula Clark was quickly labeled as a child prodigy when she started her singing career back in 1954. Soon after, she started rolling out her albums, out of which Don’t Sleep in the Subway, Downtown and I Couldn’t Live Without Your Love made her a worldwide sensation.

Petula knew her craft from inside out, as she has also worked as a composer with several prolific singers. In a recent interview, Petula stated that she loved her time singing on stage in front of a live audience and that those moments will always remain special to her.

Robert Carlyle - Glasgow, 60 Years Old

The Mr.Nice Guy of television, Robert Carlyle is remembered for the string of protagonist characters throughout his career. He started working in films back in 1990, with Silent Scream bringing his breakthrough in the industry.

After that, Robert appeared in a bunch of successful movies like Trainspotting, Once Upon a Time, Eragon, and The Beach, which would cement his place as one of the greatest British actors to ever grace the screens. His 60th birthday celebrations with his wife and children, were extra special as it also marked his 3-decade journey in the industry.

Rowan Atkinson - County Durham, 66 Years

Born in 1955, it would be a disservice to the arts, not to mention Rowan Atkinson’s name when talking about Britain’s most impactful thespians. Best known for his role in the sitcom Mr. Bean, the actor’s character stood out as one of the most innovative in history, using gestures for performance. The comedian’s transition into film, which had him take on more serious roles, proved beyond doubt astounding versatility.

Atkinson, who has been in a relationship with fellow comedian Louise Ford since 2014, has three children. While he recently announced the retirement of Mr. Bean’s character to the disappointment of many, he continues pursuing other roles.

Sally Ann Howes – St. John’s Wood, 90 Years

Despite them both being in show business, Sally Ann Howes' parents tried to ensure that she had a normal childhood. Still, the actor quickly proved that she was born for the limelight, impressing a family friend who would then recommend her for a film role, launching Sally into the industry. Howes later took on voice classes that set her up for a career as a singer too.

The British-American star has been married to Douglas Rae for more than forty years and has two adopted sons. In the performer's own words, an onscreen role will have you remembered, but the stage is where you truly connect with your audience.

Sarah Lancashire - Oldham, 56 Years

With a career that dates back to 1986, Sarah Lancashire’s journey to stardom began in theatre while doubling up as a drama teacher at a local university. She would then be cast for guest appearances on various TV shows and gain a huge fan base across Britain, landing her a two-year contract with the ITV network.

While the Happy Valley actress has been able to keep a low profile, letting very little about her private life be known, her work speaks for itself. The star even received an honorary award in 2017 for her contribution to drama.

Sean Bean - Handsworth, 62 Years

While in college, Sean Bean took part in local theatre productions, scoring himself a scholarship into a prominent drama school in England, thanks to his outstanding skills. He would later switch back and forth between being on stage and screen, establishing himself as a noteworthy thespian and gaining attention across borders in the U.S.

When he isn’t performing, the actor is probably curled up in a corner enjoying a good read or spending time with his big family that consists of three children and four grandchildren. And if you thought that was all about him, this English star is quite the pianist too!

Sheila Hancock - Isle of Wight, 88 Years

Incredibly smart, Sheila Hancock’s only choice in the 1950s was to be a teacher until she was introduced to theatrical art by her aunt. Fascinated and determined to find her place in this newly discovered world, Hancock would audition and land her first role on a stage play in 1958. The actor then asserted herself as a force to reckon with, rising through the ranks to produce her show on BBC.

Now in her eighties, this celebrity is still aggressively ambitious, a characteristic which Hancock considers to be a necessity to remain in good shape and be able to work even at her advanced age.

Shirley Cheriton – London, 66 Years Old

 

Shirley Cheriton's acting skills scored her some of the most lucrative projects in her career. But it was the role of Debbie Wilkins in the soap opera EastEnders that earned this actress the fame and fortune that Cheriton has today. The star's on-screen relationship with Ross Davidson on the show, in particular, sparked her popularity.

Interestingly, Ross and Shirley also began dating in real life, though they called it splits soon after. The actress retired from acting with numerous portrayals under her belt and signed off from the industry on a high note by appearing on FM!

Sir Ben Kingsley – Snainton, 77 Years Old

Sir Ben Kingsley's versatility in acting proved to be an immense asset to him when he enrolled in the Royal Shakespeare Company to start his professional career. You may have witnessed his bravado in The Dictator, where he played the role of Aladeen's evil uncle.

Yet, surprisingly, Ben even nailed the character of Mohandas Gandhi in the film Gandhi. Talk about being a chameleon! The fact that the star hails from a semi-Gujrati family must have helped him manifest the role even more brilliantly! Still working, Sir Kingsley now has two projects lined up, The Way of the Wind and Dalíland.

Sir Ian McKellen – Lancashire, 82 Years Old

If adaptability had a face, it would be that of Sir Ian McKellen. Over six decades, there's hardly any project that this actor didn't excel at. Be it Shakespearean theatre, popular fantasy, or science fiction, Ian always understands the assignment and exceeds the expectations of both the critics and fans!

Yet it was when he donned the hood of Gandalf in the fan-favorite Lord of the Rings that the artist became an overnight sensation! It's hardly shocking that Ian has got numerous awards, including a Golden Globe and five Emmys, during his career, which he still has not retired from, by the way!

Sophia Loren – Rome, 86 Years Old

Sophia Loren now leads a life of complete luxury because of her glorious career as a generational actress! Titled one of the most talented female artists to grace the "Classic Hollywood Cinema" by American Film Institute, the star is known for her acclaimed performances in films like Two Women, Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow and Marriage Italian Style.

Although Loren cemented her name in history as a performer, she started her professional journey as a model, participating in the Miss Italia beauty pageant. Unsurprisingly, the stunner made quite an impression on the audience, as Sophie walked away with a one-way ticket to the film industry!

Thelma Barlow – Middlesbrough, 92 Years Old

Thelma Barlow cemented her name in the history of British entertainment as the innocent Mavis Wilton in the popular soap opera Coronation Street. The character of Dolly Bellfield in Dinnerladies also helped the actress in becoming the very best! Though, shockingly, Thelma didn't spend her teenage years learning or practicing acting, as is the case with many prominent names. Instead, she studied shorthand and typing.

The star also worked as a secretary. It was much later that she took performing professionally. The rest, as they say, is history! Thelma may not be active much now, but she has managed to leave an unbreachable legacy behind!

Lee Majors - 82

From The Big Valley to The Six Million Dollar Man and The Fall Guy, it’s evident that Lee Majors is an expert at taking on successful TV shows. He’s been acting since the early ‘60s, and now that he’s in his 80s, he’s still at it!

Within 2021, Majors played on the film Narco Sub while also working on a new movie called Spring Break ’83! With all his hard work, we’re not surprised that sources estimate his net worth at around $15 million. He’s been married to Faith Noelle Cross, his fourth wife, since 2002.

Timothy Dalton – Denbighshire, 75 Years Old

Timothy Dalton may have played numerous roles throughout his career, but he will forever be remembered as James Bond. The charismatic Brit played the secret agent in two of the most celebrated films Licence to K*** and The Living Daylights. It would be criminal to miss his name while discussing the greatest British actors of all time.

Today, even in his seventies, with already a fantastic career to boast of, Timothy refuses to hang up the boots and continues to dazzle on-screen. He is presently portraying the role of "the Chief" in Doom Patrol. Frankly, we're not ready to watch him retire either!

Tom Wilkinson – Wharfedale, 73 Years Old

Tom Wilkinson had humble beginnings, having been born to a farmer in Wharfedale, but he made sure to treat himself with a life of luxury. To that end, Tom embarked upon a journey of forging an exceptional acting career, which, after countless successful projects, the star has achieved.

The star's wife, Diana, is a brilliant performer herself. The two appeared together in The Kennedys, portraying the real-life couple Joe and Rose Kennedy. Both the lovebirds continue to have very active professional lives, with Tom's latest project being SAS: Red Notice.

Vanessa Redgrave – London, 84 Years Old

Vanessa Redgrave is one of the few lucky ones to be blessed with the Triple Crown of Acting. Be it Broadway, television, or the big screen, the actress never failed to leave us speechless with her breath-taking acting skills.

Indeed, after spending years with the Royal Shakespeare Company, Vanessa developed a knack for drama, which she keeps reminding us of time and time again! Even now, the legendary icon continues to give us hits after hits, with The Lost Girls being the most recent offering in which the artist managed to sweep us off our feet once again!

Twiggy - London, 71

How does one acquire a nickname like Twiggy? Well, according to the friends of Dame Lesley Lawson, she was initially called Twig due to her thin body and tiny frame. This was only stylized to Twiggy after her manager, hairdresser, and then-boyfriend changed it.

The funny thing is that, despite the nickname being a little rude, it made her a household name in the industry. She not only became the world's leading model but had a successful acting career, winning two Golden Globe Awards for her work on the 1971 film The Boy Friend. She's currently filming a documentary called John Schlesinger: Midnight Men set for release in 2022.

Trevor Eve – Sutton Coldfield, 70 Years Old

Trevor Eve made a name for himself in the British entertainment scene for his detective roles in the shows Shoestring in the late ‘70s and Waking The Dead in the early ‘00s. Born in the parish of Sutton Coldfield in England, he moved to London in his youth to attend university and, along the way, began a stage career.

Now 70, Eve is still alive and doing what he does best. He’s even influenced his children to go into entertainment, with his daughter Alice Eve gaining fame as an actress in Hollywood. We last saw him in action in 2021 in the fantasy TV series A Discovery Of Witches.

Richard Chamberlain - 87

Richard Chamberlain was a teen idol from the 1960s thanks to the role he had in the series, Dr. Kildare. He also takes credit for being the first actor in Hollywood who was able to give life to the role of Jason Bourne. He has also pursued a Broadway career and appeared in productions like Scrooge: The Musical, Spamalot, and The Heiress. Chamberlain has been openly gay since 2003 and currently has a net worth of $20 million.

Paul Hogan - 81

In July 2021, Paul Hogan sadly had to say goodbye forever to his Crocodile Dundee collaborator, John Cornell, who passed away after 20 years of having Parkinson's disease. Hogan himself is now 81 years old but was still able to take part in the 2020 movie The Very Excellent Mr. Dundee.

The Aussie star has already earned a Best Actor Golden Globe for playing the iconic outback adventurer Michael "Crocodile" Dundee in the Crocodile Dundee film of 1986, the first from the franchise. Hogan endeared audiences with his earnest, amiable, and down-to-earth personality, showcased in the movie series.

Julie Goodyear - 79

 

Julie Goodyear is another actress who had a successful run with Coronation Street, starring as the barmaid Bet Lynch from 1966 to 2003. That good fortune isn’t lost on her. She’s even shared her wealth with the needy during a time of national crisis.

In 2020, she donated some of her personal jewelry and some pieces her TV character once wore to be auctioned off. The proceeds benefited the Willow Wood Hospice, which was close to her heart because it was founded by the actor who played her screen husband.
