Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein has claimed that Dame Judi Dench once tattooed his name on her backside.

Speaking to Newsweek, the industry mogul revealed that Dench had 'Judi Loves Harvey' inked on her rear to express her gratitude at their successful working relationship.

"[She] did six movies in a row with me and got five Academy Award nominations," he explained.

Weinstein said that the Mrs Henderson Presents star had invited him to dinner with a "bunch of really famous, fun people" on the day she received her fifth nod.

"She said, 'I have a present for you'. She pulled down her pants and she had a tattoo," he said. "It’s a tattoo you could wash off... right on the rim of her butt.

"Everybody at the table was completely shocked. I think she chose it on purpose because she wanted to embarrass me and she did."
