    None of the Yorkshire greats from history - Salt, Locke, Wilberforce, Cook.
    None of the modern day Yorkshire greats - Brian Blessed, Barry Hines, Zac Dingle
    No marmite option - Clarkson.

    Not a great list really is it.

    On a sporting front Brian Close Ray Illingworth Don Revie and Mick Mccarthy would be in the mix. Our own Patrick Cryne is worth a shout. In the business world Ken Morrison and in Politics Harold Wilson.If ladies are included Beryl Burton Jessica Ennis and Brenda Nixon

    Sorry for being flippant but when I tried to think of prominent Yorkshire people my mind strayed to Nell McAndrew - Sorry.
    Does that make me bad?
