  You're not showing how the response example you shown relates to `response1` (there is no `'TagList'` in your example). It looks like `response1['TagList']` is an empty list.
  
  Otherwise you're on the right track (you can always check your exact case directly in the python shell):
  
  ```
  $ python
  Python 2.7.12 (default, Jul 01 2016, 15:36:53) [GCC] on linux2
  Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
  >>> response = [{u'Value': '2018-06-21', u'Key': 'Deletion_Date'}]
  >>> response[0]
  {u'Key': 'Deletion_Date', u'Value': '2018-06-21'}
  >>> response[0]['Value']
  '2018-06-21'
  
  ```
