Dame Helen Mirren said she thinks she enjoys playing the part of the Queen after winning the Best Actress award at the Oliviers. Dame Helen said the power of the Queen lies in her "self-control". Dame Helen, who won the gong for her portrayal of the monarch in the play The Audience, said: "It's a role that you have to suppress your emotions in. "I think that is the power of the personality, the character, the being that is the Queen - is that incredible self control." She added that she could not imagine playing the Queen again, because she has already played the "full range of her history". Report by Tom Ellis. -- Published on April 29, 2013
