So we have a new clutch of birthday honours, with some interesting selections from the arts. Zaha Hadid becomes a dame, Kenneth Branagh, Michael Body, Gareth Malone and David McVicar all become knights. Michael Berkely and Harry Christophers get CBE's, Edward Gardner, Tasmin Little and Joanna Macgregor get CBE's. Congratulations to all.
