Sir Christopher Lee (known best from "The Lord of the Rings" (Saruman), a Bond bad guy (The Man with the Golden Gun), and the Hammer Horror films) was given the Fellowship Award at the BAFTA's (the British version of the Oscars). Lee was visibly moved to receive the honor (see below).
I hope that Peter Jackson is able to film Sir Christopher as Saruman in "The Hobbit". Lee is 88 years old now, and has trouble getting around.
Lee is not only one of the great "bad guys" in movie history, but also is an incredibly prolific and accomplished actor.
Congratulations, Sir Christopher.
