I based my career from the very beginning on people like Maggie Smith, Judi Dench and Margaret Rutherford. I keep thinking Maggie and Judi are going to eventually not want those parts and I'm going to move up and take them (laughter). So, hopefully, I'll be working in my 70s and 80s. You know, character actresses. I never had looks to lose. I could keep going-Meryl Streep and me. (Tracey Ullman)
