Mr Creosote

Tis the season to be jolly....who'd be your fantasy christmas lunch guests...

Here's mine

Alistair Sim - as Scrooge after the ghosts
John Mills - in any of his plucky little englander roles
Kenneth More - would make the party go with a bang as Ambrose Claverhouse
James Robertson Justice - Sir Lancelot Spratt
Ian Carmichael - Stanley Windrush an innocent abroad
Terry-Thomas – as Major Hitchcock – a bit of a cad with an eye for the ladies

and the ladies….

Margaret Lockwood – as the wicked lady
Liz Fraser – as Cynthia Kite, her big….eyes and innocence
Hazel Court – just something about her as Julia Chester-Barrett in Bond Street
Phyllis Calvert – Maddalena Labardi, Madonna of the Seven Moons springs to mind
Margaret Rutherford – pure joy any role


Traditional dinner - Turkey and trimmings, christmas pud. Afterward, the chaps retire for brandies while the ladies wash up

Well its my fantasy

....whats yours - steady!!

I don't think I really need to answer this one, do I?

It would involve a candlelit dinner for two - though tea and ice cream was almost as good!

For no other reason than that they are my favourites and would provide interesting conversation over lunch ...

Max/Stanley Baker/Patricia Roc/Susan Shaw/Eric Portman/Alastair Sim/Margaret Rutherford

Unexpected guest - Joan Collins (just for some late afternoon fireworks!)

and

Jean Kent
Margaret Lockwood
Kay Kendall

to supply the glamour

You can't see the join !

Great choice of raconteurs Windthrop ,I would obviously have to invite them round on Boxing day as they would be round at your place on xmas day .

I would also have to get a bigger table as I would love to invite , Frankie Howerd , Hayley Mills the delightful Kristin Scott Thomas ,Margaret Rutherford the wonderfully eccentric Stephen Fry and the ever so suave Patrick Stewart
Nearly forgot Alaistair Sim

I May be getting older ,but I refuse to grow up
