Ha, ha. You punked us. I’m a 67 year old man, and you couldn’t put any of those women next to me without causing people to question why I’m with such an old lady. Show us the real good looking women in their 60’s, not these old hags with too much money to buy the opinion of magic mirror on the wall. Give me beauties, not hags with money.

Wendy Hewgill

Well, my inspiration is Judy Dench, Maggie Smith, Julie Walter’s. I think they have matured with panache, and always look graceful.
