Three network talk shows passed on
interviewing British actress Judi Dench, and Harvey Weinstein says it's because of her age. Dench is 71 years old and
was recently doing the rounds to promote her movie, Mrs. Henderson Presents, for which she was nominated for
an Oscar. Weinstein says she was turned down for interviews with Today, Good Morning America, and
The View. The producers of those shows reportedly told Miramax that Dench "didn't fit their
demographics." The View and GMA released statements in response to Weinstein's whining, both saying that there wasn't room for Dench on their shows at that particular time. Both trumpeted Dench's previous appearances on their programs.
Didn't they try The Early Show on CBS? That show is so desperate for ratings, they'll take anyone.
