The dinner party.....pick three people to invite

DH and I are forever changing our minds on this.

If you could have three famous, influential or fictional people sitting at your dinner table, who would they be and why?

For me (and I'll probably change my mind tomorrow):

Danny Bhoy - He'd have everyone laughing and he seems to know a few quirky and interesting facts of places around the world.

George Calombaris - I love how excited he is about food, although I'd be terrified cooking for him!

Sheldon Cooper - Bazinga. It would certainly be an interesting dinner conversation!

Brad Pitt purely for the looks, Irish comedian Dylan Moran for the wit and Adriano Zumbu (or whatever his name is) for the wicked deserts.
I think.
Couldn't we have a dinner party for 10 .... ?

Mine are a tad obscure..

Tina Fey - she is my idol and 30Rock is my fav thing in the world

Alan Shore - the character from Boston Legal as there is just something about him...

Myself in 30 years time (since we are fantasising here) as I want to see how I turn out and get the heads up for anything I need to know.

Who is this Sheldon bloke? Will have to google...

ETA: Ok googled... LOL now I don't feel so weird about my Alan Shore "thing"!
