But you did not publish a thesis based on the work--they "awarded" the "degree" based on what you'd already written. Finally, "Knightsbridge" was a totally fake operation that had no recognition as a university anywhere in the world for as long as it operated (and wherever it operated!). Terms like "highly successful" and "perfectly legal" are dodges. The first is without context or standard and the second is not relevant to whether or not the university was recognized. It was not.
Zoology? Didn't Knightsbridge award your degree in another area (after you first applied for a different degree)? Are you seriously expecting people who know about such things to accept the legitimacy of a degree (a) awarded by an unrecognized "university" run out of some guy's house without any recognition in its home country or anywhere else around the world, and (b) based on previously compiled work without any effort to form it into a thesis, and c) without a shred of scholarly (not trade) publication included, and (d) in a different area than the sole supervisor's area of expertise? Really?
Again, I have no interest in judging your work. I can accept it as serious and worthwhile at face value, yet still demonstrate that the process used and the institution in which is occurred--and which awarded the unrecognized degree--was a sham.
What do you care what Knightsbridge does with its students?
The State of New Jersey and the Easy Three commit far more heinous crimes against academia every single day.
