According to the Telegraph, Lee sported a morning suit for the event and walked with the aid of a stick after receiving treatment for a back injury he sustained during a fall. After the ceremony Lee said he would not divulge what the Prince had said to him after being knighted but said, “He couldn’t have been nicer and was very easy to talk to.”

Lee has starred in hundreds of movie roles, including playing popular characters such as Dracula, James Bond’s nemesis Fransisco Scaramanga, and Sith Lord Count Dooku from the Star Wars prequels.
