Good on him - I'm glad that Sean Connery already had a gong though - it would have been a crime for Roger to have got his first...
Also on the music front :
CBE : Sting
CBE : Dave Gilmour (Pink Floyd)
MBE : Gerry Marsden (Gerry & The Pacemakers)
MBE : Errol Brown (Hot Chocolate)
Hmmm ! Guess "Everyone's a winner" :P :P ::) ;D
In descending order, the honors are knighthoods, Commander of the British Empire, Member of the Order of British Empire and Officer of the British Empire. Those who are awarded CBEs, MBEs and OBEs have no title but can put the letters after their names....

Or, as Tim-Brooke Taylor was told by one of the other Goodies when fantasising about being an earl and an OBE - "You'd be an earlobe!" ;D
