My first choice of dinner companion would be....

I couldn't stand David Beckham's squeaky voice!
And I would get into a huge argument with Neil Kinnock about the EU commissioners' expenses and why Glenys got such a good job!
All the rest would be good.

All the above names look good especially Paul O Grady, Judi Dench, Des O Connor would also be good company for fun and intellect, but for eye candy what about David Beckham ( without Victoria ) I have nothing against the girl but she never seems to have a smile on her face

I always think Dame Judi Dench would be interesting along with David Tennant, Neil Kinnock and J K Rowling..

I reckon the Duke of Edinburgh would be a great dinner companion, along with Angela Merkel. Might have to think of some eye-candy for DofE. Any suggestions?

Hi Annobel just in case Phil was out with you instead of me would have ,Brendan Sheerin[coach trip and international tour guide],Martin Clunes,Dave Lamb[narrator for come dine with me],Des O'connor he is such a giggler with a naughty twinkle,Paul O'grady either as himself but Lily could come as well, Gok Wan, have seen a chap called Dave Spikey on countdown,he makes me giggle as well....feel free to swap and sharexx

Apart from family, there are at least three gransnetters I would love to have dinner with, but it would be invidious to name them!
