'Including me, when I watch it. I'll be going, why didn't I do more?' Mirren saucily responded.

Make like Helen Mirren in a chic black dress
Helen Mirren is one of the most stylish celebrities; she knows how to dress elegantly and maturely.
Some of her favored designers include Elie Saab, Jenny Packham and Escada and of course, as demonstrating here, Dolce & Gabbana is top of her list too.
The actress donned this black midi dress by the brand on The Late Show, a pick she has actually donned before during the British Film Festival last year, so it clearly is a favorite. We can't blame Helen for wanting to wear this sophisticated number again; LBDs are always a trusty option, especially when they're by Dolce & Gabbana.
Sadly, the dress isn't available to buy, but do not fear, Fashion Finder has saved the day with four pretty black dresses below all in the same style as Helen's, so you can snap up her look with a simple click of the button.
Team with colored courts to pack a punch, or go demure with simple black pumps.
She's currently in New York filming the dramatic comedy Collateral Beauty, which boasts a star-studded cast including Keira Knightley, Kate Winslet, Will Smith, Naomie Harris and Edward Norton, in the city.
The movie tells the story of an advertising executive, played by Smith, who falls into a deep depression following a personal tragedy.
Helen plays an actress hired by his colleagues as part of a plan to break him out of his dark spell.
Classy: She added a pair of peep toe black leather heels and carried a dark blue snakeskin purse as she arrived at the Ed Sullivan Theater in Manhattan
