He presumably hadn't seen The Queen as played by Helen Mirren

I started to watch Mistresses some weeks ago which has now just finished. Enjoyed it immensely. Some very good acting, no stereotyping and one or two rather good twists. A nice change to see a programme which doesn't deal in black and whites, just the grey areas, and the decisions and consequences which come with them.

I agree Mistresses was a good dish served and dealt well with sensitive issues.
It simply underlined however what a great actress Orla Brady is.
