    Pick 5 famous dead or alive to go on a night out with you and a quick note as to why.

    Oliver Reed (liked a beer and was a bit bonkers)
    Liam Gallagher (soundtrack to my youth and hero)
    Mohamed Ali (the greatest)
    Duncan Ferguson (As I'm also an Evertonian, Big Duncs a legend)
    Darren Sheridan (someone's got to annoy the other 4)

    If @judith charmers doesn't pick me in his list there will be bother

    Kim Wilde - I was besotted as a kid, although I was too young to understand why. Just think it’d be cool.
    George Best - Committed to the sesh, proper wingman. Some great stories I bet too.
    John Lennon - Fascinated by what he would have done in the next part of his life if he hadn’t been taken so soon.
    Michael Jackson - Absolute hero as a kid. The few people that really got to know him all say what a lovely, thoughtful, kind hearted guy he was.
    Johnny Cash - I think he’d get a bit fed up me pestering him to do kareoke! He did like a drink though I reckon he’d be happy to oblige if I got a couple of rounds in…….

    Honourable mentions for Ray Davies, Jimmy White, Jaime Pressley, umpteen boxers and Gerry Taggart.
