[Closed] Who would it be?

I take it from Leonard Cohen they can be dead?

Leonard Cohen’s dead?!?

Just kidding. Yes, let’s say recently, though so this doesn’t expand too far into the past.

Say no more than 5-ish years past?

A) Kathy Burke
B) Piers Morgan
C) Simon Reeve

Hunter S. Thompson for all of them.

Eddie Izzard
Russell Brand
Kristen Bell.

Hunter S. Thompson for all of them.

I can’t believe he died getting on for 14 years ago.

I can’t believe he died getting on for 14 years ago.

Exactly. Five yearsish

A). Piers Morgan (so he'd be available for B)
B). Piers Morgan (no explanation needed)
C). Piers Morgan (in order to dump the body as I'd invariably get carried away during B).

(I'd also happily substitute Jacob Rees-Mogg for Piers Morgan)

This could be an interesting topic.... or it could just turn out to be a celebrity whac-a-mole 🤪

a) Wes Anderson  (film maker extraordinaire, man of many pallets, I’d like to understand what he sees and how he goes about setting the tone and storyboard for his films, and who/why the characters are chosen from a small number of his acting pool) 🕴🎬 🎥🎞

b) lyingblohardjohnson  (that’s a very simple choice for me, and suspect a few others too) why? Because he’s a selfish self serving liar. 😘

c) Matthew McConaughey (man of many on screen talents, I’m an admirer of his characters and manner and have a man crush of him and probably we’d both be led astray... hopefully) 🕺😍

I'm fascinated by this man of many pallets. Might he be a member of a cargo cult?

LOL@BillMC

He might be 👍

I on the other hand, never spellcheck anyfink.

100' of these for me but off the top of my head:

Michael Caine (Tom Hanks)
Trump (Farage)
Paul Weller (Prince)

None, I'd only choose to spend time with family (those I like) and friends. Celebrities might seem interesting from afar, but could well turn out to be boring jerks in reality !!

a) Rachel Riley because I'm an unimaginative lecherous middle-aged man.

b) Paul Dacre, because I took a long time to think about this one, who really deserves a good shoeing ? Well, there's a small list of people I really dislike, Piers of course, IDS, Katie Hopkins, Farage, Noel Edmounds, Hunt n' Gove the interchangeable pair of tossers, all horrible people but if we're allowed to go in to the past they pale compared to the big hitters, Hitler, Stalin, and Pot etc, but with those guys what are you going to achieve, often people like that are as evil as they are exactly because they got a dapping at some point and the felling of helplessness made them power mad.

No, for me it's Dacre, he didn't design the road map to the polarised version of the UK we live in now, no it was some other Toff decades before, but he really perfected the art of turning niggling prejudice into money, he got rich (or richer to be more accurate) and Millions people of Brits now believe whatever half-cocked prejudice pops into their head that day because at some point the Mail will turn it into 'fact' for them. Morgan and Hopkins are just riding that wave for money, people like Farage and Yaxley-Lennon build on it for power, Dacre, life's work done sits in his private high security blood sport resort in Scotland chuckling as we all shot spit and bile at each other.

c) I'm not sure I'd want to spent too long in close proximity with a 'famous' partly because the few I've met have been a bit high maintenance to say the least and partly because I'm awkward and take a while to warm to new people, but lets say David Attenborough, partly because even hearing him say "let's pull over here for a piss and a pasty" would sound epic and funny in equal measure and he's known for being fairly quiet unless he needs to speak and don't suffer fools easily - I'll admit there's a decent sized risk I'd fall into this category, but you've got to be in it, to win it.

Exactly. Five yearsish

I wasn't trying to have a dig, I was actually uncertain about when he died and upon checking was mightily shocked. I thought it was a lot more recent.

Lisa Bonet
Lenny Kravitz
Zoe Kravitz

(Not really but it's better than taxi25's answer)

For dinner - Steven Hawking - just so i can ask him "if the universe is expanding, what is it expanding into???!!"

For a good kick in the slats - David "pig molester" Cameron - everything that is wrong with politics at the moment, cause an absolute shitestorm, then just walk away to a job on the board of some FTSE 100 company for a six figure salary with no consequence to your actions.

For a road trip - Billy Connolly - always loved his humour, he likes a good road-trip and because watching him on TV recently, sadly i don't think he'll get the chance for many more good trips..

1. Stephen Fry
2. Alan Carr
3. Johnny Depp (for the drugs)

Clint Eastwood (Billy Connolly)

Paul Hollywood (John Torode)

Vic Moir (Reeves) (Bob Mortimer)

“if the universe is expanding, what is it expanding into???!!”

It's the universe it can't expand into anything as anything would be part of the universe. So what's for tea, prefer vegan but veggie will do as long as as there's no melted cheese involved.

1 - Piers Morgan (Farage) - I have some rat poison kicking about somewhere
2 - Piers Morgan Obviously (Farage)
3 - Piers Morgan (Farage) - there plenty of places he could be left and never seen again

I would have said Katie Hopkins, but I don't think I could bear any form of contact

as long as there’s no melted cheese involved
