The idea is simple you are going to a lock in at the pub. You have a choice of two people to take. You can only take one. Who would you choose. Post your choice,say why and then set 2 people for the next person.
So - Boris Johnson or Keir Starmer?

Ooh Callistemon I never thought of that! I'm used to buying my round! But if she's paying... Bolly all round!
Alison Steadman she'll have gossip about loads of the people she's worked with.
Alan Bennet or David Hockney?

FannyCornforth Sat 26-Dec-20 11:35:42

That's a tricky one trisher
Hockney, I think that he'd be the more approachable and fun of the two.
I've been to Saltaire and I know quite a bit about him.
Oh- I'm really looking forward to it now!

Madonna or Kylie?

Sweetpea60 Sat 26-Dec-20 11:56:21

I would choose Phil Collins and Daniel craig

FannyCornforth Sat 26-Dec-20 11:59:14

Sweetpea that's all very well and good, but that's not how to play the game!

I can't imagine that you'd get many choosing Collins over Craig!

trisher Sat 26-Dec-20 12:21:36

I've decided on Kylie. Would have taken Madonna when she was younger and might have had more fun but she's a bit dictatorial now.
Joan Collins or Barbara Windsor

FannyCornforth Sat 26-Dec-20 12:41:54

trisher you're clearly a woman of my own heart. I used to love Madonna but cannot stand her now

Another tricky one, but I go Barbara.
I think that Collins may be a bit tricky herself at times.
I think Barbara could fit it in anywhere.
I really am looking forward to this.
So far I've got Hockney and Dame Barbara!

John Peel or Terry Wogan

BlueSapphire Sat 26-Dec-20 13:18:33

Terry Wogan.

Ronnie Corbett or Ronnie Barker?

janeainsworth Sat 26-Dec-20 13:25:14

Ronnie Corbett

Tom Bradby or John Suchet?

Callistemon Sat 26-Dec-20 13:29:15

John Suchet

Alan Sugar or Karren Brady?

NotTooOld Sat 26-Dec-20 13:30:40

Alison Steadman. We could have a laugh, I think.

Kate Middleton or Meghan Markle?

Callistemon Sat 26-Dec-20 13:34:15

NotTooOld

Alison Steadman. We could have a laugh, I think.

Kate Middleton or Meghan Markle?

Alan Sugar or Karren Brady, NottooOld?

(You're not allowed Alison Steadman, that's cheating ?)

NotTooOld Sat 26-Dec-20 13:38:54

Oh, sorry! Don't know what happened there. Must be Boxing Day madness on my part. OK, I'll have Ms Brady.

Kate Middleton or Meghan Markle?

Beauregard Sat 26-Dec-20 14:33:52

Kate Middleton

Jeremy Clarkson or Piers Morgan

LauraNorder Sat 26-Dec-20 15:23:59

Clarkson

Zippy or Bungle

FannyCornforth Sat 26-Dec-20 15:42:50

Definitely Zippy, he'd have a whale of a time with Sweep!

Joan Rivers or Joan Baez?

LauraNorder Sat 26-Dec-20 15:59:29

Wish I could have both

Rivers for laughs over good music I suppose

John Lennon or Paul McCartney?

Alioop Sat 26-Dec-20 16:23:42

Two Jamie's so I can just sit and stare....
Dornan and Redknapp

FannyCornforth Sat 26-Dec-20 16:28:38

McCartney. Never liked the cut of Lennon's gib.

Shakespeare or Austen?

trisher Sat 26-Dec-20 16:29:08

Sorry Allioop you can't have both!
John Lennon -McCartney always seems a bit serious and self-important to me.

Lenny Henry or Michael Macintyre

trisher Sat 26-Dec-20 16:30:14

Oh FannyCornforth we'll have to split them
Austen
Lenny Henry or Michael Macintyre

If only he was available!

FannyCornforth Sat 26-Dec-20 17:34:23

Kim19

If only he was available!

Who?
Lenny, he's a Black Country lad and evidently favours a more traditionally built lady

George Clooney or George Michael?

janeainsworth Sat 26-Dec-20 17:38:11

Rory Stewart or Ed Balls

LauraNorder Sat 26-Dec-20 17:39:34
