So who would you have dinner with...?

trevithick · 16-09-09, 06:52 PM

This has been going around in my head for a while (I've got the end of year tax paperwork to do and well anything is better).
Who would you have at your ultimate dinner party?
I've even thought of some rules sort of, 5 people still with us and 5 people dead.
Now this will make me look even sadder than people think I am.
Livin'
1 Mr Mike Palin
2 Mr Steven Fry
3 Sir Sterling Moss
4 Mr James May
5 Mr Bill Baily

Dead
1 Mr I K Brunel
2 Sir Winston Churchill
3 Erwin Rommel (sit him next to Winston)
4 Richard Trevithick
5 Queen Liz the first

Obviously quite a gathering but it's surprising when you have tax stuff to do how many pop into your head.

Cheers

Your 'Alive' list is almost spot on as to what I would have on mine apart from changing Bill Bailey for Jack Nicholson.

It'll take me bit to work out my dead list but I'd like to listen to what Adolf Hitler had to say for himself and have Winston Churchill there as well.
Albert Einstein and Sir Isaac Newton would be a good pairing as well which would only leave space for one more...

quite possibly Charles Darwin...
