John's post, and I know it's been done lots of times, but who would you like to invite as dinner guests?

Koo Stark, Katherine Jenkins, Russell Grant, Derek Brockway (Wales weather man), Joy Beverley and Stan Stennett. I would seat myself between Joy Beverley and Russell Grant and directly opposite dear Katherine so I could play footsie. :-D

Is Sentimu the Archbishop of York? And who is George Clarke? I am guessing footballer - brother of Leeds and England international Allan Clark :-S

John , George Clarke ( sorry left off the 'e' previously) is an architect, he presents amongst other things 'Restoration Man' on tv , he's a very interesting young man I think, with a passion for his subject :-)

**resisted the temptation to shove in a few footballers and football managers as they're not, as a rule likely to offer over much to the conversation lol....I'd also like the opportunity to have a football based dinner party where I would invite Arsene Wenger and Alex Fergusson (amongst others) so I could throw vol au vonts at them at random intervals
:-D

Some really interesting combinations :-)

Sue. I think Dame Margaret Rutherford is quite a nice person - bit too shy to be in your company perhaps :-D

Who's gay on my list? If you are casting aspersions at Joy Beverley, I beg to differ ;-)

And Derek told me he was straight the last time we shared a hotel room together (to keep expenses down) :-)
