No, not really - but someone has removed the "CBE" from after her name
in the Wikipedia TA article, with the claim "postnominals aren't used in
the main text". If this _is_ a rule, (a) why?, (b) surely an exception
can be made in this case.

I can't imagine Lynda Snell allowing her Wikipedia page to be tampered
with in this manner.

I half expected her to indeed have a page, but she doesn't - though has
an entry in a list:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_The_Archers_characters#Lynda_Snell
(which _does_ mention the MBE).
