The James Bond actress was left tearful after spotting the bird during an episode of BBC's Countryfile and said it was an 'enormous privilege despite her eyesight issues.
Dame Judi Dench was emotional on Countryfile as she fulfilled a lifetime ambition to see a golden eagle in the wild. The Oscar-winning actress thought she saw the bird of prey on a previous Scotland trip but could not be sure it was the rare animal.
Asked by Yassin for her thoughts, Dame Judi looked tearful while laughing and said: “I could see one and you are a witness to seeing that I saw it… very overcome… It’s an enormous privilege, don’t you ?” Dame Judi said: “How brilliant. And I keep that and show it? I never quite thought it would happen. well, we’ll go out and we’ll be looking. They won’t … We saw them… thank you so much.”
“We’re now aware of things like plastic and what harm it does in the sea and the rivers and hopefully… will be even more focused on what we have. We can’t destroy that.”
