Who, on the 2019 List, Would You Most Like to Meet?

[Davey Jones' Locker 1,324]

Definitely Cleo Laine for me. A distant relative of mine, who I never met, knew her, so I'd ask her about him.

 

By all accounts, she is lovely.

[gcreptile 10,946]

Tina Turner - hope she still has the volume.

 

Edit: Also, River Deep, Mountain High is my absolute favourite song.

[Joey Russ 7,212]

Any great musician. Clegg, MacGowan, and Ginger Baker

[Davey Jones' Locker 1,324]

Tina and Cleo had the same hairdresser!

[Torva Messor 273]

Clive James. I watched "Fame in the 20th Century" on my first trip to London; I'd enjoy hours of his insights and anecdotes and literary criticism.

[Sir Creep 7,069]

  Leah Bracknell, and we can meet presently if she comes to room 124 of my hotel.  

[CaptainChorizo 1,972]

I'd like to meet Prince Phillip and ask him if he could introduce me to Meghan,Duchess of Sussex

[TQR 14,372]

It's a toss-up between Murray Walker, the DoE or my mate Leah.

[Clorox Bleachman 2,394]

Bob Hawke could down a yard of beer in 11 seconds. He was briefly a world record holder.

I thought from the Liza Minelli thread you only liked them dead.

As a fellow Aussie, I feel obliged to try to beat that record this New Year's Day.

[FixedBusiness 407]

From one drummer to another, probably Ginger Baker. Seems like a great guy

 

Larry King would also be swell.

[markb4 887]

Dick van Dyke most of all!

[Bentrovato 1,084]

Prince Philip in order to ask the Greek about his amusing views on migrants. 

[theoldlady 2,285]

Dick van Dyke seems like an interesting fellow.

[Deathrace 1,161]

The two people on last year’s list I had actually met are both no longer on the list - one died and the other has been inexplicably dropped this year.

I share a direct common ancestor with and hollywood star from the 1940s/1950s couldn't believe it when I found out. Though I share their surname so it shouldn't of been a surprise.

Me too. My grandmother in her later years used to base her life around diagnosis: murder which was shown everyday in the afternoon in the uk for many years. I'd like to tell him what and big fan my nan was of him.

[Man About The Forum 78]

Robert Mugabe, although the fog seems too set in now to have a decent chat.

[Redrumours 857]

Leah Bracknell for 5 sets of Tennis.
