It's been 20 years since she dazzled in the famous tango scene in Scent Of A Woman.
But English actress Gabrielle Anwar is still turning heads at 42.
The Middlesex-born actress, who is now based in Miami for TV show Burn Notice, topped up her tan in white bikini.

Keeping trim: The Middlesex-born actress follows the Ayurverda principles when it comes to her lifestyle
The mother-of-three strolled along the beach and cooled off by dipping her toes in the Atlantic Ocean.
Nowhere to be seen were Gabrielle's boyfriend Shareef Malnik or her three children.
Looking younger than her 42 years, Gabrielle makes sure she keeps her body in shape by following the Ayurvedic principles.
Busy schedule: Gabrielle has recently finished filming Season 6 of Burn Notice
She said in an interview last year: 'My own personal confidence comes from my inner world. My external self is entirely dependent on that. When I do my fitness exercise program, it is gentle and nourishing. There is no battle with my bulge. There is no battle.'
Gabrielle is mother to 19-year-old daughter Willow from her previous relationship with Craig Sheffer and Hugo and Paisley from her former marriage to John Verea.
Gabrielle, who played Al Pacino's tango partner Donna in the 1992 film, has been dating Shareef - owner of the Forge restaurant in Miami Beach - since April 2010.
Svelte: The actress has an amazing figure after having three children
In more recent years, she has become known for playing former IRA operative Fiona Glenanne in Florida-based TV show Burn Notice.
Last week, Gabrielle tweeted her character was hanging up her heels 'indefinitely' after wrapping her final scenes on Season 6.
She wrote on October 2: 'Last Day of The Burn! Fiona hangs up her heels indefinitely. Wrap Gifts...'

Gabrielle Anwar plays protagonist Michael Westen's ex-girlfriend Fiona Glenanne, a former IRA operative, in Burn Notice . Anwar is perhaps most remembered for her turn in the movie Scent of a Woman . She talks about her career and her Burn Notice character's reputation for blowing things up.
The popular cable TV show "Burn Notice" returns to the USA Network tonight. The show centers on Jeffrey Donovan as a spy discredited or burned by the CIA. He picks up work as a knight errant in Miami while he tries to come in from the cold.
Bruce Campbell plays his sarcastic sidekick. Sharon Gless plays his mom. And Gabrielle Anwar plays trigger-happy ex-girlfriend Fiona Glenanne - always ready to blow up bad guys for a good cause.
(Soundbite of TV show "Burn Notice")
Ms. GABRIELLE ANWAR (Actor): (as Fiona Glenanne) They told me about your situation. It seems this man, Felix, he took Tiny for a ride in his car. And then he attacked her and she escaped, literally, and then Cory went after him with a baseball bat.
Unidentified Man#1: I found him crying in the street. I just want to make sure he never tried to come back.
Ms. ANWAR: (as Fiona Glenanne) No explanation necessary. Use the golf club next time, greater force to a small area.
Unidentified Man#1: Hmm, yeah. But now he's after me. His guys came to my house. They tried to shoot me in the street. I mean, I don't know where to go.
Ms. ANWAR: (as Fiona Glenanne) Fine. We'll take care of it.
Mr. JEFFREY DONOVAN (Actor): (as Michael Westen) Would you excuse me? Fiona, could I talk with you out on the balcony?
CONAN: Gabrielle Anwar is Fiona Glenanne in the series "Burn Notice." You may also remember her from "Scent of a Woman" and as Henry VIII's sister in "The Tudors."
If you'd like to talk with Gabrielle Anwar about "Burn Notice" or her film and television career, give us a call, 800-989-8255. Email: talk@npr.org. You can also join the conversation at our website. That's at npr.org. Click on TALK OF THE NATION.
And Gabrielle Anwar joins us now from the studios of WLRN, our member station in Miami. And welcome to TALK OF THE NATION.
Ms. ANWAR: Oh, thank you. I'm honored, Neal, for "Burn Notice" to be deemed worthy of your TALK OF THE NATION.
CONAN: Well, it's - you're not the first member of the cast to aboard. Bruce Campbell has been on a couple of times to talk about various things, but including "Burn Notice." And our friend, Bob Wisdom, was on and talking about it.
Ms. ANWAR: Oh, fantastic. I'm in good company.
CONAN: Yes. He used to work here years ago. We thought so much of his talent, we had him cutting tapes. So - and then he went out to Hollywood and became a big star. So I meant to ask you, though, how much weapons training did you have to go through to get this part?
Ms. ANWAR: Very little, I'm afraid to admit. We have a phenomenal props master who truly hands me the weapon seconds before we shoot the scene and rapid fire, instructs me how to not shoot anybody on the set, including myself, and then we shoot the scene. We move at a very rapid pace, so there really is very little time to really learn the skills involved with this kind of weaponry.
CONAN: You look very comfortable with those very large caliber weapons.
Ms. ANWAR: I do. Oh, that's good to know because the moment the cameras stop rolling, I'm in a bit of state of panic.
CONAN: A lot of the movie revolves around your chemistry with Jeffrey Donovan.
Ms. ANWAR: Yeah, it helps. The chemistry does help, doesn't it, with a male and female act on TV.
CONAN: It does. Yeah. It's an old formula but it seems to work well.
Ms. ANWAR: Well, I appreciate that. Yeah, Jeffrey and I work very hard at creating our chemistry.
CONAN: Yet, there is this sort of subtext. You're always the ex-girlfriend, yet you're always around and always willing to help.
Ms. ANWAR: Yes. Don't you just love those kind of exes, the ones that don't go away?
Ms. ANWAR: Well, I think that they're both in tremendous amounts of denial about their relationship and, you know, the actual state, their meantime, to refer back to what I was listening to earlier on NPR. But, yeah, I - obviously, they're involved currently. But I think neither of whom are prepared to admit it, which I rather like.
CONAN: There is - it must also be enormous fun working with such a great cast, not just Jeffrey Donovan, but we mentioned Bruce Campbell and Sharon Gless, who - when Bruce was on, he said, she got the part because she could smoke very convincingly.
Ms. ANWAR: Yes. She does do that rather well, doesn't she?
Ms. ANWAR: I am truly in heaven. It's ridiculous the amount of fun that I have when I go to work in the morning. I keep thinking that I'm going to wake up one morning and I will have been having this splendid dream for the last four years, and now the reality has hit home and I'm back in a rainy England without my weapons and my cast.
CONAN: You have been in a whole bunch of things. We mentioned "Scent of a Woman." We mentioned "The Tudors." Well, there's a lot of other things too. Some of them very good and some of them, well, probably not going to be archived, you know, forever. This must be loads of fun, and to have a wonderful hit on your hands, too. This is the top-rated drama on cable TV.
Ms. ANWAR: Yeah. It feels pretty good. It's such a surprise when something turns out for the better in this industry. Because, you know, there's a lot of disappointments involved, and one's skin gets thicker and thicker over the years. So it is a true pleasant experience to have some support, because, oftentimes, it's quite the contrary and, you know, there's a lot of struggling involved. So it's quite lovely to come up for some air and take a breather at this late stage in my old career.
CONAN: Oh, not so old. You just turned 40, right?
Ms. ANWAR: Yes. But I've been doing this for quite some time, since I was actually a child in England. So it feels like I've been around the block a couple of times.
CONAN: I did not see the, you know, RADA in your background, though. I mean, did - you started acting as a child and just kept on going?
Ms. ANWAR: Yes, I did. I was actually kicked out of my regular local school. And my parents decided that I should possibly benefit from channeling all that teenage angst into an acting career or perhaps dancing. I actually started dancing, and then was even too rebellious for my ballet teacher. So I ended up in the drama department. And the rest is a rather tumultuous history.
CONAN: Gabrielle Anwar is our guest. She's at our station in Miami, our member station, WLRN. 800-989-8255. Email: talk@npr.org. Steve's(ph) on the line calling from St. Louis.
STEVE (Caller): Hey there. I had one question, at least when I talked to the screener beforehand, but I came up with a second one that's maybe just a little bit irreverent. The first question I was going to ask was: Are there any particular challenges with playing the character Fiona, who is, for all intents and purposes, or at least in her past, has been pretty much a psychopath? The second question I had was what's with all the yogurt? And I'll take my answer off the air. Thank you.
Ms. ANWAR: Oh, hello. The hardest part for me is not the psychopathic part. That's sort of a breeze, I confess. However, the heels pose a problem on a daily basis.
CONAN: Which are minimum three inches.
Ms. ANWAR: Yeah. It's because I'm actually only five-foot-three and everybody else in the cast is over six feet. So it's tr
