UK Honors Film Director Steve McQueen And TV's 'Poirot' Detective David Suchet (Oh, And Annie Lennox, Too)

UPDATE: This New Year's UK Honours list from the Queen includes only�two names of major�film/TV interest for CBEs (one notch below knighthood): film director Steve McQueen (Hunger) who?s about to start shooting Shame in January with Michael Fassbender, and�actor David Suchet, best known for playing�Belgian detective Hercule Poirot in those marvelous Agatha Christie mysteries for ITV and PBS. Music legend Annie Lennox was on the list, too, but a notch below with an OBE. I would say that McQueen's selection is surprising given�his anti-establishment stance. His Hunger was a sympathetic portrayal of Irish terrorist Bobby Sands ? not the Establishment?s favourite person. Actress Harriet Walter, mainly known for her stage work over here, has become a Dame, and comedienne Sheila Hancock also becomes a CBE.�Burt Kwouk, who was Peter Sellers? karate-chopping butler in the Pink Panther movies has been made an OBE.
