The 90-year-old Hollywood legend has taken aim at the changing culture in comedy while hitting out at political correctness for going ‘out of control’. ‘I think it’s gone out of control, really. You can’t say anything. People get offended.
’ Dame Joan insisted she never calls herself an actor – if she can help it. Dame Joan has bemoaned the way comedy has changed ‘If I’m in a room with some actors and actresses, I call us actors, and I do sometimes call myself a jobbing actor,’ she added. ‘But on the whole, I like to be called an actress.’ Dame Joan hasn’t been shy of sharing her views, and last year she warned about the dangers of artificial intelligence.
