Has Richard Lester been knighted or awarded an MBE or any other award for
contribution to British life? And what about Rita?

as you know dates always change. They are planning to have a screening of the
film on the 21st of May, they have invited me to attend and to do a Q&A after
the screening, they would love to have Richard Lester to attend - so would I -
but that is under dicussion, I will let you know if he agrees, fingers crossed.
He has such a huge following and the audience would love to have the opportunity
of a Q&A with him. I think the film is very relevant to today and was way ahead
of it's time. - Love, Rita"
