Dame Helen Mirren no longer puts her awards on display, instead consigning them to a life in the attic.
The acclaimed actress has won a host of prizes throughout her career, including the Lifetime Achievement prize at the Women in Film and TV Awards last week, but has stopped showing them off at her home.
The Oscar-winning actress said: "I have had so many funny ones over the years.
"I won Best Actress at the Rio Film Festival which doesn't exist anymore so it's probably a collector's item.
"But now I have put them in the attic to be discovered when I'm gone."
The 64-year-old star has won a huge number of awards throughout her career, including various Emmys and BAFTAs.
However, it was her role as Queen Elizabeth II in 'The Queen' in 2007 that saw her pick up her first Academy Award, after two previous nominations.
