That’s getting into the philosophy of what makes a roast dinner, the fundamentals, and what are the extras? Surely we have a forum for that? Anyone? Quote

Dr. Alan Grant Posted September 22, 2024 Posted September 22, 2024 There haven’t been many contestants I haven’t liked. Even lesser ones like Iain Sterling had their moments. And people I otherwise cannot stand, like Russell Howard, Jenny Eclair, Noel Fielding and David Baddiel, were great on the show. Top 5 dream contestants 1. David Mitchell (by some margin) 2. Bill Bailey 3. Diane Morgan 4. Vic Reeves 5. Kevin Bridges Quote
