Off Topic people you'd like to go for a beer with

Kinell! See the above response to Patty. Haven't you been watching the news? Do you have any idea how serious this is?

 

Spoken like a true Yorkshire man ... "'Ear all, see all, say nowt ..."

 

Barnes Wallis was the guest speaker at my school's "Speech Day" some time in the early to mid sixties. It was the only time I won an academic prize and he presented it to me. We shook hands and he said, "Well done." We didn't have a beer or a conversation but it was a special moment.

 

The one person I'd like to have shared a beer with is my dad. He died a few days after my eighth birthday. I've heard he was a lovely man but I never had a chance to really know him and yes, I am ****ing resentful.

 

Loads of those already mentioned plus Peter Kay.

 

Really? I ****ing hate her.

 

You hate everybody.

 

No I dont, I just regularly talk about the people I do hate These are made up of Chris Moyles, Richard Hammond, Jeremy Clarkson, Tim Lovejoy,Tom Daley, Davina McCall and James Cordon. I cant think of anyone else off the top of my head.

I've also always suspected that Jamie Oliver is a massive twat but I'm not sure I hate him yet.

Back on the topic and I'd choose Hitler, Ali in his prime and Gervais, Merchant & Pilkington. Although I dont think there's been a single day in 12 years that I havent listened, watched or read something by them so I'm not sure what we'd have left to talk about.

 

Why Tom Daley?

The rest I can sort of see why but what's poor little Tom ever done to deserve your wrath?

Oh and by the way I've met Ricky G, in NYC.

Just saying like.

 

It really, really irked me when he released a Youtube video of him declaring his sexuality as if that was appropriate. Is every celebrity going to do that from now on? No, of course not - cos it's ****ing pathetic 'look at me' desperate attention seeking. And then in said clip he said (something along the lines of) "i wanted to tell you all that I'm in a relationship....cue X Factor poll result pause to increase tension .... with a man". Its not a ****ing tv show Tom with millions hanging on your every word and then screaming with excitement at the result. If the media ask you just issue a statement "yeah I'm gay / bisexual and I'm seeing someone. What of it?' And then his long lingering posing as he rubs down his day-glo orange skin in the shower after he's jumped off a board, like he's in a shower gel advert or something.

Massive grade-A ****.

And yeah I remember you saying he was a lovely chap. Didnt go for a pint though did you? I think the nearest I've got to an actual sesh with a celebrity was I went on a stag-do with Gordon Smart. He's a top bloke.

 

The two Montys, Monty the golfer and Monty the WW2 general

 

I remember that now, it was high graded bellendery in all fairness.

 

I knew I could rely on you to see sense.

 

James Cordon, Freddie Flintoff, Jamie Redknapp, & Jack Whitehall

 

See if you can get his brother Andrew to come along too.

 

twins aren't they?

 

Oh, thanks for telling me. She'd probably not think too highly of you either. Of that I am sure.

 

To be fair, I would like to quiz her on her smackhead days.

 

There's a thread about that already!
