The British actor will be made a Sir in recognition of his "services to young people" thanks to his campaign against knife crime in the U.K. During an appearance on The Graham Norton Show on Friday, the Luther actor admitted the knighthood almost passed him by because he didn't see the letter until very close to the response deadline. "It's a bit embarrassing. I was sent a consideration letter asking whether I would or wouldn't accept it, but I didn't see it as it got lost in a pile of post," he shared.
