gah!!! Helena gets a CBE!! finally!!!!!
congratulations Helena!!
and i love her outfit her skirt could've been switched to black or dark, velvety red but it probably looked better than the pictures would show
and i think although she isnt called Dame yet when they write her name, it can (or perhaps should) always be followed with the CBE right? like Helena Bonham-Carter, C.B.E.
Helena iirc is blue-blood anyway, she descended from an Earl and has a lot of prestigious members in her family on both sides of the family tree (think the House of Black, but real and more humane ) she just never made a big deal out it, part of the reason why i love her so much |

| So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.
Ahhh, makes me proud to be British!
