This question is generally directed toward anyone who lives in the United Kingdom or anyone who knows about modern British culture.
I just want to know this for my own information. As an American, I am kind of shady about the details of what it takes to be a modern-day knight. From my perspective, it seems to be a form of popularity contest.
Back in the middle ages, knights were generally anyone with military gifts - whether it be an excellent swordsman or strategist. I also know that they had to follow the acts of chivalry.
Forgive me, but I can't see Elton John matching any of these qualities. (In fact, Elton John with a sword is a scary thought.)
Any information you give would be most appreciated.
