//explained the title would feel uncomfortable as he had entered acting to become "a rogue and a vagabond".//

He would be in good company then judging by some other Knights of the realm.
I would only accept my Knighthood if it kept the wife happy.

Oh Dear, yet another luvvie with an overinflated idea of his own importance, anyway he's got to be offered one before he can refuse it.

i`m wracking my brains - what does he think hes actually done to deserve one. All his work I can remember was distinctly 3rd rate.

He was asked if he would accept one if it was offered and said "No".

I can't quite see where self-promotion and 'luvvie-dom' come into it.

Stand out role: the voice of Scar in the Lion King. Er, that's about it.

I also thought it was rather ar$ey of him to say that.
I still don't understand why actors are knighted for just doing their well-paid jobs.

I'm with jackthehat. He was asked a question and answered it. Some people just read the headline and make up their own story.

Honest answer to a question that's all , maybe actors should lie or give 'no comment' responses - or would they get slated for that too?

In the highly unlikely event of my being offered a knighthood, I too would decline. For me to accept one, as a republican, would be hypocritical.

Anyway, loads of people have refused honours in the past.
