- <p> The card from Buckingham Palace had two choices: "I can
- kneel" and "I cannot kneel." And for those who can kneel but
- not get up again? After being made Britain's newest knight last
- week, Peter Ustinov, 69, reported there's "a handy rail to
- assist knights of a certain age." Busy Ustinov has a new novel
- and a future TV series, and has been touring the world with his
- one-man show. After the traditional sword tapping, Queen
- Elizabeth said, "We hear you are as active as ever." Alas,
- "when she opened her mouth to say something else," says Sir
- Peter, "it was the next gentleman's turn."
