Helen Mirren, the British actor who is already the winner of awards including an Oscar, four Baftas, three Golden Globes, five Emmys and a Tony is to add another to the shelf: the Cecil B DeMille Golden Globe for lifetime achievement.
Mirren, 80, who was given a damehood in 2003 and made a Bafta fellow in 2014, will pick up the award in a ceremony on 8 January, three days before the main Golden Globes take place, as part of an event billed by the Globes as the “Golden Eve”.
