Okay. I know I am but a Philistine barbarian, so I’m not confident I know what is good in these matters. I enjoyed Joanna Lumley’s performance more. I found her eyes, facial and body expressions more realistic. I was entertained more by her.

@Deserthiker
Joanna's performance is a modern interpretation and her delivery is a little more "Ab Fab" LOL. Judy Dench's version is the classical form of the actual play

@CookieLuvsBunny Judy Dench’s seemed to be more well pronounced, and louder. I can understand her doing it in a theater voice.
