Headline: Dame Judi Dench slams theatre trigger warnings

Caption: The 89-year-old acting legend has warned "sensitive" theatregoers not to watch shows if they think they will be offended. Dame Judi has expressed disappointment over the fact that some West End shows come with a content trigger warning. Audiences may be warned in advance if productions include adult themes, violence, or racial discrimination so those attending can brace themselves - or reconsider attending. Dame Judi - who has worked on stage since the 1950s - has shared her views on such warnings and thinks that they can rob audiences of being "surprised".
