- Two unlikely friends. One night of unparalleled conversation. Remember the late Dame Maggie Smith with this special event from 2021, we believe to be her last ever recorded interview.
Kathleen Turner met Maggie Smith in 2000 while they were performing in adjacent theatres in London’s West End - Maggie in The Lady in the Van at the Queens Theatre, and Kathleen in The Graduate at the Gielgud Theatre. A series of pre/post show dinners evolved into a friendship which has endured the intervening 20 years.
From either side of the Atlantic, the two iconic actresses share stories of their unusual childhoods and their remarkable careers on stage and screen. From The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie to The War of the Roses, from Friends to Harry Potter, expect laughter (and perhaps a few tears) along with stories you have never heard before.
With two Oscars, five Golden Globes and three Tonys between them, spend an evening with Kathleen and Maggie as they compare notes and divulge secrets from two extraordinary careers.
Dame Maggie Smith and Kathleen Turner In Conversation with Gyles Brandreth was originally broadcast on Thu 8 Apr 2021, in support of The Royal Theatrical Fund.

I love the way that Dame M is so interested and focused on what Kathleen Turner says. So down to earth, grounded and also modest. What a wonderful woman, wonderful actress, great, great talent. Witty, charming. People say ‘Legend’ a great deal. But she was. Already greatly, greatly missed. The world is a poorer place without her precious soul.
Anyone who ever interviews a serious actor / star should watch this interview. Brandreth knows both their careers better than they do, he knows just the questions to ask, and he doesn't insert himself into the discussion unless he has something genuinely interesting or witty to add. Result: they both respect him, trust him and are therefore more relaxed and forthcoming.
You're totally correct. Thanks for saying.
This is how interviewing should be conducted!!! Bravo!
One of the best interviews I have ever seen. Everyone is so interested in what everyone else is saying.
Thank you for sharing this interview with these two marvelous ladies... Much Love, Kathleen Turner and Rest In Peace, Dame Maggie Smith...
What a wonderful, respectful, relaxed, and honest interview this is! Thank you so much for sharing this with all of us. I'm still processing Maggie Smith's passing as she was one of those fixtures in our lives that made it seem she'd outlive each of us. I can't tell you what a pleasure it is to listen to each of you pay such attention to one another sharing. Brilliant. 💌
Beautifully said thank you.
Two absolute legends! What a wonderful friendship they shared. Thank you so much for this beautiful interview. Well Done!
Just wonderful agree great interview, I loved Kathleen’s lovely words to Dame Maggie she was so visibly moved by them.
You're so right; I felt the same!
Finally. Been waiting for this to be released for years
What a delightful treat to find this. Thank you one and all.
What a marvelous program--Thank you so very much!
That was absolutely brilliant. I do love Gyles and Maggie of course. I would never have thought of Maggie and Kathleen having such a connection. They say opposites attract.
“Can I borrow your barrier?” “Can we have dinner?”
What an introduction!
Thank You Giles Brandriff for leading this marvelous interview in your oh so genial way.
Quite the trifecta.
What a priceless piece of footage. Thank you for adding it to the channel.
Delightful. Thank you for sharing this.❤
This was just wonderful. The knowledge in this room about acting and performing is incredible.
What makes her loss so much more profound is how well she looks / is...body,mind,soul and essence so complete.
I'm not sure what happened, but she is so full of life here..just hurts more as I feel Maggie had so much more to give 😢
She was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 74. It might have returned.
Delightful! Thank you so much.
Thank you very VERY MUCH FANE for sharing this. ❤❤

Fantastic interview !
incredible !! thank you so much for sharing !!
I loved that. Thank you ❤
This is absolutely superb.
So much talent, and wisdom. Thanks for sharing.
Another friend that Dame Maggie made back in NYC in the '50s was also a mutual friend of Julie Andrews and that was the actress Alice Ghostly (who was so hilarious in the sitcom "Designing Women") and that is how she came to be the one to accept Maggie's Best Actress Oscar for her.
I loved this, absolutely wonderful.
A lovely interview, both incredible women, I’m not sure Maggie has really enjoyed her career, she has an underlying sadness, I thought.
Don't ask me what its actual composition was, but size was applied to scenery as a fire retardant. Theatre's then were terrible death-traps all manner of electrics for the sever lighting.
Was this really the very regretted Maggie Smith's final interview? Kathleen Turner was 66, she says so herself, and she is now 70 so it would have been 4 years ago.
Sublime perfection ⭐️
There is no misplaced....competitiveness.....no jagged contempt.
Diddn't Maggie S defeat Kathleen T for the Tony?
Yes she did--In the summer of 1990 I saw Dame Maggie on Broadway in the brilliant comedy Lettice and Lovage, which was written for her by Peter Shaffer: AND I saw Kathleen play a superb Maggie (no relation to Dame M) the Cat in a marvelous revival of Tennessee Williams' Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. They say comparisons are odious and they are, as well as often ridiculous. Theatre gossip at the time said that Kathleen really, really wanted to win the Tony. Well in my view, they were both winners; but Maggie was at the peak of her powers in a play written for her; so the Tony voters voted for her. And I would have to agree. But both women were---marvelous; I was so fortunate to see them both! (By the way, I noticed in the interview that that subject was NOT brought up; the diplomatic thing to do, I think!)
@@blanchefan Thanks for the thorough reply.
Lovely. R.I.P Maggie
both awesome
1:06:42 = That was just beautiful. 💌🌹
A reminder that Kathleen Turner was Barbara Rose in The War of the Roses and starred in Romancing the Stone.
Oh dear.
"oh for gods sake I'd look like a _________" WHAT???

Maggie Smith was living legend and one of the greatest actors that ever lived. Kathleen Turner is neither
