Patrick Stewart got knighted by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on Wednesday at Buckingham Palace.
I'm sorry, but every time I see a knighting ceremony, all I can think of is the Bugs Bunny episode called Rabbit Hood (above). It's the one where Bugs, dressed as The King, bestows phony titles upon The Sheriff of Nottingham - each time banging the Sheriff in the head with his sceptre...
