Finty Williams: I hate being compared to Dame Judi Dench

Finty Williams hates it when people compare her to her mother, Dame Judi Dench.
The 46-year-old actress admits that it "pi***s her off" when people put her down as "not as good as" her Hollywood icon mum, as although she doesn’t believe she is at the same level as her mother, there are "80 people who aren’t as good" as herself.
In an interview with the Times, she said: "A lot of people want to go, ‘She’s not as good as her mother,’ which is true, but I can also name you another 80 people who probably aren’t as good.
"It pi***s me off, being pre-judged. That pi***s me off, pi***s me off hugely. Just because I don’t think it’s fair.
"I don’t know whether, if your father is a brain surgeon, people go, ‘He’s not as good a brain surgeon as his father.’
"I don’t know whether that happens, but because of who Ma is, a lot of people have an opinion, which they form before they get to know me or before they see what I can do."
The ‘Mrs Brown’ star knows that she will always live in the shadow of her 83-year-old mother – who has one the Academy Award, a Tony, four television BAFTA Awards, six film, and seven Laurence Olivier Awards – and although she thinks her mother is amazing, she doesn’t wish to be anyone else but herself.
She said: "If it was Grand National day, she [Dench] is up and leaping Becher’s Brook and I’m in the novice race at the beginning, and you think about all the hundreds of actors between me and her.
"She is jaw-dropping, but I also happen to think that Helen McCrory is jaw-droppingly brilliant. I happen to think Ruth Wilson is jaw-droppingly brilliant.
"I don’t aspire to be any of those people. I’m me, and I’ve got the cards that I’ve been dealt."
