    So she's jumping from an MBE, past OBE and CBE and straight to Dame? That is the way the awards work, right?

    The cost of Peggy's returns just skyrocketed.

    I`ve always thought that she was a Dame already.
    Everytime she`s on tv, my hubby asks "Is that Dame woman on tv again"?

    Quite. I wonder who DTC will sack next to fund Peggy's next return? He doesn't seem to have given up on the idea of getting her and Ross Kemp.

    Is it just me that finds this quite hard to believe?

    No.- that will be at least 2 of us.!!
    It doesnt say who or how many believe
    thats what the Queens said -even if its
    just BW but she "believes"it - that could
    be taken as true.

    BW did get a lot of headlnes last month
    giving non- poppy buyers/ wearers an
    " earholing" .Perhaps some of the remarks
    were things HM would like to say but protocol
    doesnt allow.

    Even though ( allegedly) the Queen.Mothers
    favourite act was the Krankies - its still
    a bit of a stretch to." Carry on Reigning"!!

    I'm afraid I find the whole lot of it nauseating . Best not to say anymore ,end up getting sued. Except that I totally support national awards going to ordinary citizens who have given of their time ,effort for the benefit of others with little or no recognition.Those people I applaud...

    Maybe the queen was delighted because Babs has the same surname.
