Hm. I would guess Patrick Stewart would be more lucid and sensible, since he is still an active actor.

- toyg 12y agoBecause actors are famous for being "lucid and sensible"...? (This is not a dig at Sir Stewart, I'm just pointing out that the two concepts "working actor" and "lucid/sensible person" are not necessarily linked -- as demonstrated by Brando, Depardieu etc.)
- scrumper 12y agoIt's Sir Patrick. (Should he ever be elevated to the peerage, he would be addressed as Lord Stewart.)
- coldtea 12y agoThat's in the UK. And only for those who care about that antiquated royalty system. For us, fans of the french revolution and the beheading of kings, it's just "Patrick".
- to3m 12y agoI think the point is simply that if using the title (which is purely optional) then it is standard to use the first name. So Sir Stewart would be somebody else.
- scrumper 12y agoWas that down-vote launched from the barricades you were manning? :) Accuracy is independent of politics. Or, if you prefer to think of it this way, Know Your Enemy.
- easytiger 12y agoWell I recall AB getting into some kind of self compelled nonsense and the only person to step up and start talking and change the subject was WS, everyone else was just sitting there gawping.
