    Would the dead ones be returned to a certain point in their lives or would they just be corpses?

    Would the corpses be animated? That would certainly make it interesting.

    Stephen Fry, David Attenborough, Stan Laurel and both my parents. It's the 100th anniversary of my Mother's birth today, so it would be a dinner party she'd love.

    Jose Mourinho, Pep Guardiola, Joe Duffy, Lionel Messi, and Alex Ferguson.

    I think Jose would be so wound up by the end he might actually murder everyone, but it'd be great to watch.

    Palm and her five sisters.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,092 ✭✭✭catbear


    Picking deceased is too easy so I'll try the living.

    1. Paul Howard, author of the Ross O'Carroll Kelly series.

    2. Brian Kerr, I always thought he was really sound and got an awful shafting by the FAI.

    3. Ian Morris, archeaologist who wrote one of the best books I've ever read "why the west rules, for now".

    4. Michael D Higgins or either of the two preceding presidents.

    5. Ian Paisley Jr.

    That was tough but I'm sure that mix would make very interesting conversation.
