Who's played Elizabeth?

Many actresses have taken on the role to play Elizabeth I. Cate Blanchett in 1997 stared in Elizabeth the film, Bette Davis in The private lives of Elizabeth and Essex. Glenda Jackson stared in the BBC TV series Elizabeth R, Anne Marie Duff in The Virgin Queen and Helen Mirren in Elizabeth I. Having this role was said to be very gruelling, many of the actresses chose to shave their hair off for the role in particular Bette Davis had her hair line shaved back and eyebrows shaved off. With shaving this particular part of the hair the actresses had the fear of their hair not growing fully back as it is such a sensitive part.
