By Sarah Fitzmaurice
She said her famous bikini shot will haunt her for life because she can never live up to it, but she did a good job as she took to the red carpet this evening.
Dame Helen Mirren looked fantastic in a satin crimson ensemble as she arrived at the premiere of her new film The Debt.
The actress, 66, showed off her trim figure in the midi skirt and jacket outfit which boasted a rouched nipped-in waist and oversized lapels.

Dame Helen added extra glamour with stunning diamond and ruby drop earrings and a matching necklace which provided the perfect complement to her elegant outfit.
The U.K. premiere of the drama-thriller was held at The Curzon Mayfair and her younger co-stars failed to steal the spotlight from the veteran actress.
Shining bright: Helen posed with her co-star Jessica Chastain, who despite her best attempts in her gorgeous gold-leaf inspired dress, failed to outshine the veteran actress
Cast: Marton Csokas, Tom Wilkinson, Helen Mirren, Jessica Chastain and Jesper Christensen posed before the screening at The Curzon Mayfair
Nevertheless there was plenty of glamour to be seen and Jessica Chastain dazzled in an abstract gold leaf dress.
While Mirren plays the lead role of Rachel Singer, a former Mossad agent in the 1990s, while Jessica takes on the character in the 1960s.
The cast also includes Tom Wilkinson, Ciaran Hinds, Marton Csokas and Jesper Christensen in the film which is set in the cold-war era where Helen's character is hunting a Nazi war criminal.

Happy fan: The actress pleased many eager fans and posed for pictures at the screening
Speaking about the role Dame Helen recently told On The Red Carpet: 'I think the fact that it was a proactive role for a woman my age. Really proactive roles are comparatively rare for me.'
The actress went on to admit that she thinks she has been very fortunate in her career during recent years.
She said: 'I've been very lucky, I got to do Red and the Tolstoy film and this and all of those roles have been very proactive, but all very different from each other. That was a good couple of years for me.'

Earlier today at the press screening ahead of the premiere Mirren made the shocking revelation that the famous shot of her in a bikini, taken three years ago will haunt her for life.
The actress was snapped by a photographer on a beach in Italy on holiday and the pictures quickly cemented her reputation as a sex symbol.
The actress explained: 'I think the thing that will haunt me for the rest of my life is that bloody photograph of myself in a bikini.
'In and of itself, it is a lie because I don't actually look like that and I know that that is going to haunt me forever and I'll be forever trying to bury it unsuccessfully.'
