AT THE MOVIES #728                   BEHIND THE BLOCKBUSTERS

Tea with the Dames allows four of the theatre’s most distinguished actresses the chance to remember their eventful careers.  Stars Dames Judi Dench, Maggie Smith, Eileen Atkins and Joan Plowright.

And family film Duck duck goose finds a bachelor goose suddenly in charge of two orphan ducklings.  Stars the voices of Jim Gaffigan, Zendaya and Stephen Fry.
