Veteran actress Dame Maggie Smith is back at work following her reported battle with breast cancer.

The British screen legend underwent chemotherapy earlier this year in a bid to destroy cancerous cells.

She allegedly braved filming her role of schoolmistress Minerva McGonagall in the upcoming Harry Potter And The Half Blood Prince - the sixth film in the wizard hero franchise - while having the energy-sapping treatments.

And now the 73-year-old is set to start shooting children's fantasy movie From Time to Time, which had been delayed from March.

A source tells Britain's Daily Express newspaper, "Maggie Smith hasn't been well and these projects do tend to ebb and flow in terms of getting everyone available at the right time and getting financing but they are definitely starting this time."
