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.

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 ;)
