Dame Judi Dench has revealed she once had the police knocking on her door after someone claimed they saw her steal a deer.
The acting legend explained that she and her late husband Michael Williams were driving home from the theatre when the animal suddenly leapt out in front of their car, the Mirror reports. Worried that the roe might get injured on the road, they immediately pulled over and were able to herd it back into a park.

During an appearance at Stratford Literary Festival, the James Bond star said: “Michael and I had come from the theatre and suddenly, in front of us, a deer shot out of the park.
