Please ladies - stay put!

I have heard the term "Dame" and understand it is quite an honor. Do you think of some women who you don't think are deserving of the title?
Granny Annie: I'm sure there must be - I'll give it some thought.
Maggie Smith has always been a favorite--a member of the pantheon of British actresses, like Judi Densch and Helen Mirren.
Cheers.
I love to have tea with them and chat, I bet they'd be quite interesting. Look at Dame Maggie's eyes, and that little smile...
ah, yes, here they are in all the grand dame glory! each of them! in such great company we are, with these magnificent women and their images, pat! thank you for sharing!
These are great looking ladies. The first time I heard the word dame in English I thought it was used like in French. In French a dame (sounds like cat, not like the English word) is a very common word. It is short for madame. You would say in French – there are 3 gentlemen and a lady in the room – il y a trois messieurs et une dame dans la piece. Also every time you go in a store where there are men and women you say “Bonjour M’ssieurs – dames.” So It’s funny for me that the English used it as an honor title.
Randall: all excellent actresses - some more likeable than others.
GG: yes but maybe one at a time:)
Gypsywoman: Jane looks so young but I expect she will age a bit playing Lady B.
Vagabonde: yes I like the way one is always greeted in the baker's in France.
Ahhhhhh, Yes! There threy are! So Happy you were able to get them to stay, my dear....!
Naomi: Firefox crashed yesterday which didn't help and blog wise I'm all behind.
