oh yes!! I love how so many people have so many actresses to respect and announce as absolute top. That only says that we've had soooo many great British actresses and the competition is amazingly high. But I am a little surprised with how many complain about Kate's high ranking and they forget to consider her age!! Most of great British goddesses shine their best after their 40s/ 50s and time certainly gives an other kind of prestige. Kate achieved so much even before her 40s. If she is lucky enough (and so we are) ,she has many years left to excel. Fingers crossed. That lady was classy and prestigious even in her 20s. I can not wait to see how time will work on her and how even more of a goddess she can get as a mature British legend.. Dame Kate Winslet sounds very matching and promising

I really don't understand why many people are so upset because Kate Winslet is ranked #2! She's a great actress and carried Titanic (most influential and successful movie of all times) on her shoulders at the age of 22, gave us one of the most iconic characters in movie history and is one of the main reasons why Titanic became a worldwide phenomenon! And unlike most British actresses who become big stars or top actresses in Hollywood at their 40's and 50's, Kate managed to reach that in her early 20's although she chooses to act mostly in non-blockbusters and with that she's a superstar and one of the greatest actresses in Hollywood and the world and one of the most Oscar nominated.

Dont know if anyone is still reading these comments, however, in my book, Brenda Blethyn is one of the most overlooked & underrated British actresses. In my opinion, she should not only be in the top 10, but I would put her in the top 5. She has an impressive TV & filmography. She is unglamorous & plays unglamorous roles. I think this is at least partly why she is overlooked. Watch her in Secrets and Lies, as well as Night Train with John Hurt.

Elisabeth Taylor is not English, she was born to American parents living in England at the time. Why when presenting Vanessa Redgrave do we see images of Jane Fonda? And yes, Audrey Hepburn was not English as someone mentioned, born in Belgium but came to England during the 2nd world war. Her father was of British descent born in Austria and her mother was also born in Austria. You should check before posting in order to get your facts right
@duncann

Nationality is not always simple but legally we know what people are from ID. Dame Elizabeth Taylor was British by nationality, and carried a British passport, although her parentage was American. You cannot be a Dame if you are an American. Two of her husband's were also British, Michael Wilding and Richard Burton. Audrey Hepburn was registered British at birth by her father and held a British passport all her life. She considered herself British although she was half-Dutch and lived internationally. She lived in England from the early 1930s and was privately schooled in Kent. Her mother was a Dutch aristocrat and when war broke out took her daughter to Arnhem where Audrey's grandfather had a mansion. After the war she returned to London to ballet school, modelling, the London stage and British comedies at Ealing Studios before being cast in Gigi on Broadway.

duncann - There is nothing to stop someone who is an American citizen from becoming a Dame, the issue is what citizenship they were at birth. Angela Lansbury was born in England but emigrated and became an American citizen long before she was made a Dame. Olivia de Havilland was born in Tokyo to British parents but grew up in California and became an American citizen when young. Elizabeth Taylor had American parents who happened to be in London when she was born. The USA doesn't recognise dual citizenships but the UK does, so if there is some British connection an American actress may still qualify for a Damehood in her own right, not just an 'honorary' one like Angelina Jolie.

The list is pretty solid - I am not sure the order matters that much. I agree with other commenters that Glenda Jackson and Vivien Leigh should be in that mix. I think Julie Andrews is wonderful in Sound of Music and Mary Poppins - she makes both films her own and is a charming, incredibly talented performer but not a complex one. She would not handle a demanding drama (or a classical piece) that any of these other actors could handle with astonishing skill. I know she has tried but they were not memorable performances. I also think we overlook just how wonderful Julie Waters is because she makes everything look effortless.

Well, good job in general but you could have done even better! You forgot the great iconic JULIE CHRISTIE another Oscar winning actress for " Darling" who has had a long lifetime career! Also what about Dame Angela Lansbury as well who has done just about everything in show biz! I see you focused more on today's actresses than those since the 1930s so the list would be even longer! Greer Garson, Vivian Leigh, etc from the Golden Age of Hollywood that had their own Brit colony of actors/actresses from the UK back in the day! Also, technically, Audrey Hepburn was only part British on her father's side but was not born in the UK and was considered more DUTCH since she was born in Holland and grew up there, she only spent a few years in London after the war before coming to the states though her career began in the UK. And Dame Elizabeth Taylor though born in the UK was always considered more of an American actress having grown up here more. Great actresses all! The UK has certainly left us with a rich heritage of actresses which is not surprising considering that it's the land of the iconic William Shakespeare and theater and they've had a very successful film industry as well which the great actor Daniel Day Lewis's father helped establish! Also, those on the Honorable Mention list are wonderful as well and you also forgot wonderful Keira Knightly who sometimes is a dead ringer for our Winona Ryder, another great actress. Personally hard to pick my favorite, Julie Christie has always been one of my favorites as well as Judi Dench but absolutely adore Dame Maggie Smith because she's a "real character" even in real life, a real 'hoot"as they say and loved her in her iconic role as Lady Violet on Downtown Abbey...she just gets better with age like fine wine!!

If you have ever seen "Cat on a hot tin roof", or "National Velvet" you would change your mind. It doesn't matter that the actor changes their accent or works in another country. It's called acting. Unlike people who these days are the same in every role they play. One should also consider the way films were made, and the types, in the times some of the people on the list were working.

there is A tendency toward over rewarding heavily aged Uk actresses like meryl streep as some of kind of 'appeasement of ageism'.Kate winslet certainly at the moment is the best actress in the world, and has been so for a long time as reflected by her record number of best actress/supporting actress awards at the oscars and golden globes. she is also for me the most beautiful actress to have ever lived, especially in the way is aging so gracefully, she reminds me of ingrid bergman in her looks. in fact kate winslet recently took part in a tv documentary which traced her ancestral origins, and found her modern origins to be swedish, which explains her similar beauty to ingrid bergman. Winslet has achieved more than all of the much older actresses picked in he top ten did in their lifetimes. p.s. ingrid bergman and Katharine Hepburn.have to be up there in the top ten for me too..

Dame Maggie Smith should be number ONE - followed by Dame Judi Dench and Vanessa Redgrave. But why is Jane Fonda shown as Vanessa Redgrave? The people who put this video together has not done their research properly enough. It´s an incredible mistake to put Jane Fonda (in "Julia") in the clips, instead of Vanessa Redgrave (in "Julia"). Elizabeth Taylor was born in Britain yes, but lived in America since childhood and worked as an American actress all her life. However the most famous British actress/celebrity off all time is probably actually Dame Joan Collins, who is not represented in this video!
