She turns 63 in a little over a week, but Dame Helen Mirren proved she will always be a perfect 10 when she was snapped in a skimpy bikini while vacationing in Italy. Who knew that the perfect complement to English crumpets was a little Italian seasoning? Bellissima, innit?

There must be something about that Mediterranean air that impels English thespians to wear as little as possible. First Sienna Millerdropped her bikini top while sailing around the Boot, and now the distinguished and dairy-licious Helen Mirren entices in a bikini while taking in some salty air with her husband. It's as if, nearly 40 years later, she's reenacting her famous naked beach scene from Age of Consent (1969). As Dame Helen proves, the age of consent might be 18, but the age of causing guys to pitch a tent knows no limits.
