We just love Helen Mirren!
Catherine the Great airs next week September 27, 2019 - 20:03 BST Francesca Shillcock Rejoice! Dame Helen Mirren is back on our screens. The actress has taken on many regal roles over her fifty-year-plus film and theatre career, including both Queen Elizabeth I and II, Queen Charlotte, and Cleopatra. And Dame Helen's latest role is just as great – Catherine the Great, to be precise.
The actress, who plays the titular role, attended the premiere of the new show on Wednesday night and spoke exclusively to HELLO! on the red carpet about playing the Russian Empress, a role she felt "privileged" to play. "To get into this woman, her mindsight, her history, was an amazing journey for me to take, it was wonderful, I feel very privileged.
The show also focuses on the romantic relationship between Catherine and her lover, soldier and statesman Grigory Potemkin, and the tumultuous, sexually-charged Russian courts of the time.
