Walters has been nominated for two Academy Awards across acting categories—once for Best Actress and once for Best Supporting Actress. She was honoured with the BAFTA Fellowship for lifetime achievement in 2014. She was made a Dame (DBE) by Queen Elizabeth II in 2017 for services to drama.
Walters rose to prominence playing the title role in ''Educating Rita'' (1983), a part she originated in the West End production of the stage play upon which the film was based. She has appeared in many other films, including ''Personal Services'' (1987), ''Prick Up Your Ears'' (1987), ''Buster'' (1988), ''Stepping Out'' (1991), ''Sister My Sister'' (1994), ''Girls' Night'' (1998), ''Titanic Town'' (1998), ''Billy Elliot'' (2000), seven out of eight ''Harry Potter'' films (2001–2011), ''Calendar Girls'' (2003), ''Becoming Jane'' (2007), ''Mamma Mia!'' (2008) and its 2018 sequel, ''Brave'' (2012), ''Paddington'' (2014) and its 2017 sequel, ''Brooklyn'' (2015), ''Film Stars Don't Die in Liverpool'' (2017), and ''Mary Poppins Returns'' (2018). On stage, she won an Olivier Award for Best Actress for the 2001 revival of ''All My Sons''.
On television, Walters collaborated regularly with Victoria Wood; their projects included ''Wood and Walters'' (1981), ''Victoria Wood: As Seen on TV'' (1985–1987), ''Pat and Margaret'' (1994), and ''dinnerladies'' (1998–2000). She has won the British Academy Television Award for Best Actress four times, more than any other performer, for her roles in ''My Beautiful Son'' (2001), ''Murder'' (2002), ''The Canterbury Tales'' (2003), and ''Mo'' (2010). Walters and Helen Mirren are the only actresses to have won this award three consecutive times, and Walters is tied with Judi Dench for most nominations in the category with seven. She is the only actress to win the International Emmy Award for Best Actress twice, for her roles in ''A Short Stay in Switzerland'' (2009) and ''Mo'' (2010). In 2006, the British public voted Walters fourth in ITV's poll of TV's 50 Greatest Stars. Provided by Wikipedia
