Brenda Blethyn, 77
By just looking at these photos, one can tell that Brenda Blethyn has aged gracefully, a feat not everyone in show business can nail. Since 2011, she has portrayed DCI Vera Stanhope in the show Vera, and although she’s now in her mid-70s, fans shouldn’t expect to see her bid goodbye to the industry.
In the May 2021 issue of Good Housekeeping magazine, Blethyn admitted she doesn’t feel 75 and doesn’t have plans to retire, something that she has learned from her mom and dad. As such, it is likely that she would be working until she can no longer.
