Sir Christopher Lee, Dracula fame to be knighted

London (ANI): Dracula actor Sir Christopher Lee is all set to receive his knighthood from the Prince of Wales at Buckingham Palace. The star is known for his spine-chilling performances opposite Peter Cushing in the Hammer Horror movies.

Lee is one of the most prolific actors and has appeared in more than 250 film and television productions. And the veteran actor is now being honoured for his services to drama and to charity. Lee, 87, is still working, and recently voiced the Jabberwock in Tim Burton's 'Alice In Wonderland", which is due out next year.
