The Irish actor has been nominated for a Knighthood in the New Year Honors.
The Knight of the Crown is a hereditary gong that comes with its own splendid castle, thousands of rolling acres and some very swanky burial rights.
But the New Year Honors committee in charge of the awards is having none of it, adamant the whole idea 'is a load of crap'.
Knighthood? Castle? His own bloody royal burial sepulchre too, begorrah?
Of course the awards chair rejected the proposal before filing the nomination papers under 'Mausoleum Crap'.
'It's probably because of Neeson's existing hereditary Irish bloodlines,' one of Neeson's backers explained, 'conflict of interest and all that stuff.
'Still, a bit harsh of the Honors chair to file the application under 'More Sir Liam Crap'.
