Are you made a sir if you are awarded a MBE award?
Being awarded a Member of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (MBE) does not automatically entitle one to the title of "Sir" or "Dame." However, should an individual already hold a knighthood or damehood, being awarded an MBE would not affect their title.
How should you address someone with MBE following their name?
The MBE, and the OBE, are honours which do not carry a title. They are Mr, Ms or Mrs. in writing and "Sir" or "Madam' when addressing them in person, if you don't know them. If you know them then you might be permitted to use their first name. Otherwise after the first "Sir" or "Madam", I think it would be normal to call them Mr XYZ or Miss ABC, etc.

Why do they call les Ferdinand sir les?
No idea, but the previous answer was wrong, he has certainly not been knighted - and his "Sir Les" nickname was around before he was even given the MBE
Shall you add Sir and Mr at the same time with a name?
No. If the person has earned the title "Sir", it indicates they have been knighted and that title should be used preceding their name. If the person does not have a title, you would then address them as Mr. preceding their name. In normal conversation, I think it would be acceptable to address the person as "Mr." regardless of whether they have a title, and to use "Sir", as in "Thank you, Mr. Doyle. Can I help you with anything else, sir?"
Are you legally permitted to add the title 'Sir' to the beginning of your name?
Yes In Great Britain I would say the answer is No. 'Sir' is an honour given by the Monarch, and to use the title without it being confered upon you would be fraud.

How do you address Mr and Mrs on invitation but with man having an MBE knighthood?
Crown Honors can be a little cumbersome. While joint forms of address are best avoided, some circumstances require it and the proper way to address an envelope would be: Mr. Smith, MBE and Mrs. Smith In the letter you would address them as Mr. and Mrs. Smith. In the order of the British Empire, only the two highest ranks, Knight Grand Cross (GBE) and Knight Commander (KBE), cause a person to become a Knight and able to use the title Sir.
