The 79-year-old is long way from Downton Abbey when she gets picked up by an ambulance in the show, based on Alan Bennett's West End play
What would the Dowager of the Grantham say if she could see her now? Dame Maggie Smith distances herself from gentrified Downton Abbey role in her latest project, Lady In The Van.
With her scruffy grey locks worn down around her face, the 79-year-old is given a blanket to keep warm before being taken away by ambulance. The man behind Talking Heads, who wrote about his experience and relationship with Miss Shepherd, in his diaries before sharing the story on stage, is played by Alex Jennings.
Last month, the iconic film's breakout star James Corden was also spotted on the set filming a cameo role as a market stall vendor, the MailOnline reported.
