DAME JUDI DENCH was devastated when KIM CATTRALL was forced to pull out of a play they were both due to appear in.
The Oscar winner was set to play the mother of the Sex + The City star Cattrall's character, but 51-year-old Cattrall had to withdraw from the role in London because of filming commitments.
Cattrall says, "I remember meeting her. I was supposed to do a play with her years ago at the Royal Haymarket (theatre), called the Royal Family. I was supposed to play her daughter.
"I couldn't do it because of a series. I went backstage two or three weeks before the closed. She looked at me and she went, 'I'm so sad you couldn't do this. You know, my American accent is awful.'"
