Rod Stewart Knighted

Bloody Nora.

For services to servicing presumably.

Fair play to him.

I wouldn't have the energy if I'm honest.

And he's old enough to be my Dad......

He always reminds me of Denis Law after a rough night in Glasgow.

Deserved?

I know what you mean, Bonce.

Law was on one of those "100 daftest football throw-ins" programmes on Dave last week wearing a pink silk scarf and a pair of leopard print leggings.

He looked like a right twat.

Until he sang Stay With Me and Nobby Styles and Martin Buchan joined him on backing vocals and it all suddenly got cool.

They give them to anyone these days.
I'm not in favour of the honours system,but I think it was a crying shame that Harry Patch didn't go to his grave as a Knight of the Realm.
It would have been a fitting tribute to a remarkable man.

Google him if you don't know him.

Finally!

Gad you can see it now.....

AAArrgh. If only I could stay calm and measured like Sluffy!

You know very well his honour was for 'Services to the entertainment industry'.

Fully deserved in my opinion. I have some clips to back it up.........just wait there...

Have you got one with a little, er.....black, er......Jewish fella in it?

(Ha! Bet that's stumped him....)

Ant and Dec are apparently up for a knighthood?

Good god!

That would be taking the piss.

Is there not a minimum age criteria?

(If you're not a Tory Party donor, I mean.)

I know they've been in telly since they were kids but it seems a bit soon.

And why's Timmy Mallett never been mentioned?

Timmy Mallett? 

If a bad wig and a few corny catchphrases gets you a knighthood, surely having the inventive genius to create a prop which plays heavily on your own name must be worth at least a CBE?



Just thank your lucky stars he wasn't christened Timothy Penis......

The problem is, he always needed the toilet!

Every year this pisses me off - people getting honours for basically being paid a shit load of cash to do their job.

Ant and Dec? Fuck off.
Rod Stewart? Fuck off.
Downton Abbey actress Penelope Wilton? Just fuck off.
England cricket captain Alastair Cook. Fuck off.
Actor Brian Blessed. Fuck off.

None of them have done anything for the community, everything they have done is for themselves.

The sooner we get rid of the monarchy and this yearly charade, the better.

Been passed over again then, Nat...?

I know you agree with me. We are kindred spirits.

Is that a cry for help?
