Sheila Reid, at 82, has had an acting career that has literally never stopped since she started in her early 20s as an original member of the Royal National Theatre. By her mid-20s Sheila was already so accomplished that she played Bianca, a small but critical role, in the Royal National's 1965 film version of “Othello,” featuring Laurence Olivier as the lead. Since then, Sheila has played an astonishing array of parts, year after year, most recently (at 81!) in the TV series “Humans,” and on stage with the Royal Shakespeare Company in “Troilus and Cressida.”

In addition to her acting career, Sheila is involved with “Plan International,” a charity that is devoted to helping less fortunate children around the world.
