Dame Judi Dench eats 100 Maltesers as part of the Captain Tom Moore 100 challenge

On what would have been Captain Sir Tom Moore’s 101st birthday on 30th April, celebrities and ordinary people took part in a charity challenge themed around the number 100. 

One such celebrity is Dame Judi Dench who decided to take part last week by eating 100 Maltesers while sat in a garden. On a video posted on Sir Tom’s official Twitter account,  Dame Judi said “Last year, Captain Tom inspired us all by doing 100 lengths of his lawn and raising a huge amount of money,” the 86-year-old said.

“Now I am completely inspired by him, and I’ve decided to do it. Only I’m going to eat Maltesers. Lovely. My fave.”
