''When my brother and I were growing up in the west riding of Yorkshire, we went mostly to see films of course and we listened to the radio. And the knights of the British theater, Sir Laurence Olivier, Sir John Gielgud, Sir Alec Guinness, Sir Donald Wolfit, these were my heroes and they represented to me not only the pinnacle of theatrical success but the honors that they'd been given were significant to the profession as a whole.''

STORYLINE
PATRICK STEWART GETS KNIGHTHOOD
Patrick Stewart has been upgraded from captain, to knight.
The actor, famous for playing Capt. Jean-Luc Picard on "Star Trek: The Next Generation," officially became Sir Patrick Stewart when he was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace on Wednesday (2 JUNE 2010).
While "Star Trek" introduced him to a different group of fans, Stewart is also a widely respected stage actor.
The 69-year-old actor discovered the theater as a child, and said "my heroes were Sir Laurence Olivier, Sir John Gielgud, Sir Alec Guinness." Being "in that company is the grandest thing that has professionally happened to me."
Stewart joined Britain's storied Royal Shakespeare Company in his 20s, and in 2008 was nominated for a Tony award for the leading Role in "Macbeth."
