Living or dead?


Five possibilities to start you off:-

Isambard Kingdom Brunel

Paul M'cCartney

John Metcalf (Blind Jack of Knaresborough)

Richard Branson

Fred Dibnah.

[Monkeylegend]

Winston.

Plenty of outstanding candidates, but for me it has to be Winston Churchill.

[jmorgan]

Alfred. He had the right name as well.

[plasticpig]

Oliver Cromwell. Why restrict it to men though? Elizabeth I would certainly be in my top 10.

The same chap that wanted to use poison gas against German civilian targets in 1944/5? No thank you, he was a blood-thirsty bd!
That should start a debate.....

[TSCfree]

Robin Hood

[Fallingup]

Spike Milligan. Though he was born in India from Irish/English parents. Which makes him more British than most I would say.

[juice]

Tim Berners-Lee ?
