If you were to go to a Gentlemans Evening who would you love to see and hear there stories?
Ranulph Fiennes would be my choice, I would love to hear him talking about what I have actually read in his books.
He was on Top Gear one week a while ago and Clarkson was in awe of him :y
The things that he has done.. Topman

Laughed when he said that he and his mate as members of the SAS blow up a damn in the Cotswolds while the orginal Doctor Dolittle was being filmed, then he escaped the dogs hunting him ;D
He then got kicked out ;D ;D

I think he is too rude and dame right disgusting with all the swear words he uses even though i heard them all :o
-
A few I have heard:
Barry Fry (very funny but terrible language)
Duncan McKenzie (great stories about the nasty B-stard Brian Clough)
John Stile (Son of Nobby Stiles, very funny)
Plus some others who were on after the drink had been flowing and I have forgotten about!
-
most of the people who i have revered are sadly no longer around. (mlk,joey dunlop,gilles villeneuve,ayrton senna ) i would like to hear of the exploits of chris "the stalker" walker and nori haga though.
-
Rick Wakeman, ex of Yes. Thought he was really funny, particularly when interviewed by, I think, Parky.
-
Had a talk given by a survivor from the Belson Concentration camp on Monday, was quite heavy but so interesting... however being an Isreali from the beginning he is less than enamoured by the British.....
-
James May...
No.... hang on....., cancel that....., that will be a Gay Night then!
-
I know I don`t qualify, but if I did, then:
"Buzz Aldrin", "Blaster Bates", "Douglas Bader" or "Brian Trubshaw"
-
Douglas Bannatyne (from dragons den) really interesting sort of guy who is also a self made man
The hamster (Hammond) out of all of them i find him the most interesting and i think he is great in brainiacs....
the last seat i would leave open, but it would be someone like Hitler-Stalin-Saddam-mao, that may sound like a really stupid idea for a guest but whist they were all slightly mad remember there is a fine line between brilliance and insanity and at some point all of them had the majority of their respective nations complete support

Saw him a few years ago, very entertaining evening.

General Sir Michael Jackson, Chief of the General Staff, British Army 2003 - 2006.
An inspirational leader who was not afraid to give his bosses a bloody nose when he felt it was appropriate. He could teach some of the PC brigade a lesson in how to run things firmly, fairly and with a sense of humour.
I would love to hear more of his tales of derring-do about his time in the intelligence corps during the cold war before he joined the parachute regiment.
He is a proper bloke's bloke.

The last Genlemans Evening I went to there were lots of ladies that took their clothes off to music and then when the pub shut all sorts of naughty things happened :o
-
Winston Churchill, alas no longer possible. Of those great, entertainers, again not possible, a trio of Eric Morecambe, Tommy Cooper and Ronnie Barker.
Of those still with us Rab C. Nesbitt would be my choice.

If I could sneek in to a "gentlemans evening" I agree these would be excellent choices, along with Barnes Wallace and Queen Elizabeth I, but as stated not possible no more than me getting in to such an event. :( :(
Shame you don't know what you would be missing!! ;D ;)
