Knock 'em off

Who is Colin Pillenger?

[EIM]

Everyone out, because you lot and your weird peccadilloes will see to it that there'll be no consensus on anyone anywhere.

No one in, because even if there was a consensus, some contrarian will ruin it and create an issue where none exists.

Sankara is more important than a Tv presenter

[EIM]

Was Angela Merkel really nominated? Weird. Fuck her off for the gore-tex King of nature watching, Chris Packham.

Sankara is more important than a Tv presenter

This is true. Although Prof Roberts is more than a TV presenter. That makes her sound like the bloke on Points West. Or Chris Packham. (Smiley thing.)

Sporting It's a typo of Colin Pilinger, who's an interesting shout.

Agreed, great thread. Although reading it has made me lose concentration and now Chelsea have equalised.

Keep reading.

Chris Packham used to hang out in the undergraduate student bars in Southampton when I was there, when he was about 30. We thought he was a bit of a weirdo but in retrospect I suppose he was just lonely.

So he can stay for now. Colin Pillinger effectively fly-tipped a broken fridge freezer onto the surface of Mars, so he goes. I nominate my favourite comedian.

That's the whole point of the game.

[Balderdasha]

We can't have an entirely male list. Michael Rosen out simply because I'm getting a bit tired of reciting "We're going on a bear hunt" every bloody time we go for a walk and it's a bit muddy. "Squishy squashy squishy squashy" yawn. Malala Yousafzai in.

Bevan out because of links with Mosley.

Thomas Sankara encouraged the prosecution of "lazy workers". I'm a right lazy bastard so off he goes.

Add Melvyn Bragg.

Melvyn Bragg pro hunting.

Ooh, I didn't know that. Disappointing.

[ChrisJ]

Bevan out because of links with Mosley.

Moseley was a Labour MP at the time and the links were over the Moseley Memorandum and MacDonald's failure to address mass unemployment, weren't they?

About a hundred years ago I read Foot's bio of Bevan and I don't recall anything dodgy in there. Have I missed something?

Guilt by association has seen off a few in this game already. Nobody's perfect.

Bob Mortimer blacked up on multiple occasions. I'm gonna pick Diogenes, sat in his barrel looking for an honest person.

Didn’t Diogenes masturbate in public? Call me old fashioned but that’s a bit of a red mark against his name. Replaced with Frank Pick

Miriam Marge disqualified for her recent sitcom role featuring an extended gag about ex Stone Brian Jones's willy. Replace with TV's Miss Marple Julia McKenzie

Julie McKenzie can fuck off because she was in a fucking Sondheim thing that was once inflicted on me.

Follies, GO, Follies. You have to confront the trauma head on if you are ever going to be free of it.

You utter barstard!

Frank Pick admitted that he was a bad tempered boss at times.
