Out-dated old fossil or the country's finest all-round entertainer?

He has always been a very capable entertainer and I gather he has done a lot for charity too.

I don't begrudge him the honour.

Been treading the boards for nearly 70 years, the guy must have something special about him.
I think his knighthood is overdue.

Old school entertainer should have been knighted years ago.
And also retired years ago.


Good game ! Good game !

He is brill, I think he leads where others follow and is a perfect role model for the upcomming youngsters.

The most arrogant up himself person on TV. Yes he has been around for ever and deserves accolades for it but he could try having some modesty for once.

Funny enough was talking about this last night and the guy I was speaking to also said it seemed very strange why it took so long to be knighted. did wonder if he had upset someone along the way hence it taking so long when compared so some others !!

What i don't understand is how the Queen, who personally knights one of her subjects, genuinely didn't know he'd been in showbusiness for 70 years.

I mean, is she THAT much of a puppet monarch that it's just another day's task??

How is the queent a puppet monarch just because she isn't clued up on the working life of Bruce Forsyth?

One probably has better things to do with ones time than watch Strictly.

MBEs, CBEs, OBEs yes i can understand they're often just faceless public servants. Move along - next.


But when you give somebody the highest order of the British Empire, surely you know a basic detail like "why" you're knighting him, ie for 70 years in showbusiness? Just really disappointed me that she was that ill-informed.

Perhaps she can't stand him so thought she would throw a little insult in to annoy him.

Someone mentioned the other day that it took so long because he had been divorced a long time ago and that goes against such awards for some reason.
