Choose your favourite dinner guests
A recent survey revealed that the two favourite dinner guests Brits would like to sit round the table with are.... Olivia Coleman and Dolly Parton.
Good choices?
Who would be yours, and why??

She is popular here, always has been.
And why not, I think she would make a brilliant dinner guest, she is a lady who has seen and done a lot in her time.

I always thought that British dinner table conversation would be more erudite.
Don't get me wrong...I like Dolly Parton, too. But even she will tell you, she plays the dumb blond most times. Her version of I Will Always Love You (1974) is unsurpassed:
Perhaps a more professional cover of the song is done by Whitney Houston, but Dolly had more feeling.

She's very popular here, and hasn't had a hit in decades.
Her podcasts and work outside of music is driving her popularity now.
Quill is an old fucker and way out of the loop.

Stephen Fry and Ricky Gervais. Because the humor mixed with fascinating topical discussions would be electric!

I had to Google Fry, but I agree with Gervais.
He and Dave Chappell would be blast to have dinner and multiple drinks with.

Oliver Cromwell….because I would have loved to hear him repeat his own words in dismissing the Rump Parliament: “Ye have sat here too long for any good that you have been doing. Depart, I say, and let us have done with you. In the name of God, go!”

Anne Boleyn and Princess Diana....they could compare notes on the way they were similarly treated by the men in their lives.
It would be fascinating to be privy to that conversation.

Edward I and William Wallace. Either peace would break out or we'd have a food fight.

Probably a damn good fight. Those hairy-kneed Scotsmen had very little liking for Longshanks.

William Shakespeare and Ernest Hemingway, as a writer I'd love to pick their brains -- and I'd probably end up getting them into an argument
