Still working! The man is a legend, and it's great that he's still so much in demand. He's done so much for fantastical cinema over the years, even if he does think he's only made three horror films (or whatever he says).
Any favourite Sir Christopher Lee films?

Honours for Lee, Faldo and Delia

Lee, who has more than 250 film and TV appearances to his name, became famous in the Hammer Horror movies of the 1950s and 1960s.
More recently, he appeared as Saruman in The Lord Of The Rings trilogy and Count Dooku in the Star Wars prequels.
He is still working and a representative said he was unavailable for comment on his knighthood as he was filming in New Mexico.
