Christopher Lee recieves Knighthood

Christopher Lee has made over 250 films in his 61 year career, and now the 87 year old thespian is now being recognized for his occupation with a British Knighthood.

I like io9.com saying “That’s SIR Christopher Wonka Dracula Saruman Dooku Lee to you!”

The honour of being Knighted for contribution to the arts is not a status taken lightly. There are an elite number of entertainers from a number of industries who have recieved the title, and they have all contributed significantly to their craft.

Since only UK Citizens can be knighted, my dreams of making everyone call me Sir Rodney might be as valid as an internet diploma or mail-order ordainment into priesthood.

Do you think the honour still has value and recognition?

Or is it an old tradition that is slowly losing its glamour?
