1. Jybson (my OH) - because he was in Byker Grove (although not technically 'famous')
2. Ant McPartlin - so I can watch him and Jybson reminiscing about their school days together (and arguing about who was the first to get Superman wallpaper)
3.Dave Grohl - because he is a musical 'god'.
4. Derren Brown - so he could totally freak everyone out.
5. Jason Vale (the juicemaster) - so we can laugh at his entertaining observations about the psychology of food addiction.
6. Jordan - because there's no other women on my list and she can give as good as she gets.

Having met a few Famous people in my work, I found them on the whole, not very interesting people. So I would rather sit and eat with folk who have done something to better the lives of others less fortunate than themselves. However one famous person that I met and would invite to a dinner Party was Christopher Reeves

I haven't met any 'real, live' famous people but have worked with a lot of people who have done a lot of things to better the lives of less fortunate people, and you are right, they are fantastic people - kind, wise, funny, serious, considerate, accepting, and extremely interesting.

With you all the way, but think of the chemistry. Not all famous people are uninteresting, not at least if they have a foil.

A done something to better the lives of others less fortunate than themselves dinner list, I will stick with the living:

Ummm ... it is a hard one.

Bob Geldoph
Jimmy Saville
Bill Gates
Didier Drogba
Satish Sekar
Stuck.....

I could give you a list of people I know that no one has ever heard of, but I am pushed to think of a list that extends beyond my kitchen table.

I am a people watcher, so although famous people may be a bit plain, there is still an opportunity to mix it up and get them out of their shells, and have an interesting evening... as said I would rather spend an evening with my best friends, my partner is already invited.

So may I extend the banquet to include our selection of best friends, as after all, if a tree falls in the forest etc.

dinner party three (dinner party two was a dead loss for entertainment):

Another night

Tracey Emmin
Brian Sewell
Ian Banks
Stephen Hawkins
Niel Armstrong
Linda Lovelace
