I can understand most ( though not my choice) but Monty instead of titchmarsh?  I would say Monty is too β€œrecent”. and no Penelope Keith 😱😱

Is Titchmarsh loved?

 

What do people think of Penelope Keith?

Should the Queen go in there?

Yes to Monty, The Queen and Penelope.

 

Not overly keen on Titchmarsh

There are quite a few on the list I am not keen on but they could be considered β€œnational treasures”,  I don’t rate Monty as a treasure whilst titchmarsh has longevity on his side a quality needed for national treasure status

Shirley Bassey ? 

Joan Hickson?

 

 

Joan Hickson is a wonderful suggestion and would have gone in but sadly she passed away some time ago. June Whitfield would also have been included but is no longer with us.

 

Shirley Bassey is a great suggestion - better than Joan Collins??

I loved both Joan hickson and June Whitfield ....but not sure either Bassey or Collins should be in there . How about Maggie Smith ?

Aaah @Baz i was waiting for that name

Dunno where but i've got the impression she can be quite prickly, not sure if it's true though.

Is she endearing - you're right J. Collins and S. Bassey may not qualify in the endearing.

BUT hasn't Shirley Bassey hob-knobbed with Royalty and sang for them?

She may qualify

It's a toughie

I’m sure she can ....but she’s definitely a national treasure
