Sigourney because of Ghostbusters and Doc Martin. I don't like the Alien films though. I might be in the minority, but I actually hated Silence of the Lambs. That part where Hopkins does the fava beans and liver slurp gives me the shudders to this day.

De Niro by far. He's really good at comedy as well as drama while Pacino has never really appealed to me.

As much as I feel for the tragic Mazza, I'm going for Liz for the SOLE reason she isn't canonized by a poxy Elton John song. Hey - I like that song I went with Marylin.

Had to go with James Stewart simply because he was my Nana's all time favorite.

Actually, I'm not a big fan of either , but I still went with Clint. He's very accomplished.

That is horrible news. Dolores O'Riordan was an incredible beauty and her voice was amazingly haunting. She will be very missed.

Marvel. I love Deadpool and Spidey as well as some of the older prints like Namor, Defenders (with Namor and Strange), and Doctor Strange. I like DC too, mostly Batman, but Marvel is just more fun.

I thought he was very good in The Last Detective, an under-rated series in general. RIP.

He was wonderfully talented. I loved his work in the Traveling Wilburys too. RIP Tom.

Daffy, Sylvester, and Wile E Coyote for me. BTW, Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing were Looney Tunes fans further illustrating how they were men of exceptional class and taste. I've read how the two gentlemen use to crack each other up by doing spot on imitations of the Looney Tunes characters. I'd love to see video or film of it if there is any. Here is a video of Cushing receiving a Sylvester golf club cover

Beano was great and was a big part of my childhood. The art inside was so intricate with layers of gags. I have a book by Leo Baxendale called A Very Funny Business, it is very good. If you love old comics, I really recommend it.

I'm not quite sure what The Man In Black was thinking.. That was utterly mental! It almost got my vote just for being so anti-bond! Don't care if it is mental, I enjoyed Cash's version, but then I just really like Johnny Cash. I also chose Blondie's "For Your Eyes Only" and Pulp's "Tomorrow Never Dies." Save

I loved him as Chet in that quintessential 80s film Weird Science. A very solid actor with an impressive resume.

He's been involved with two Christmas anthems with Last Christmas and Do They Know It's Christmas. RIP George.

Duran Duran were great, my favorite song by them is Friends of Mine. I also opted for Visage because no matter how many times i listen to it I love Fade to Grey. Midge Ure's voice is great. Ultravox get an honorary mention.

I liked Sylvester and Tweety Pie. Also Bugs Bunny but if you're thinking of Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd then you've got to mention Daffy ! No one forgets this little black duck. Daffy Duck is funnier than Bugs, IMO Save

Voted for DJ Otzi 3 times. Falco songs are actually OK and I rather like Edelweiss because of the Goofy holler.

When you see the razzamatazz of the WWF (or WWE as its now called), you realise just how $hit British wrestling was. I HATE wrestling, but do admit watching Wrestlemania on cable in the U.S. in 1989, with a group of mates. Fantastic entertainment, really top drawer. Hulk Hogan v Macho Man Randy Savage. It was all staged and an act, but they knew h of w to put a show on. Best of all, NO Kent Walton mugging us off with his commentary. I used to enjoy WWF and WCW wrestling. I quit watching completely after the Chris Benoit tragedy and haven't seen it since. It just showed how damaged those wrestlers could wind up being, it is so much more dangerous than what people think despite it being scripted. But, it really was lots of fun to watch.

Lewis Collins despite those wide cuff trousers wins it for me. Ian Ogilvy is also pretty good, but he needs to button the shirt up.

I like both PIN and cash. I haven't used contactless nor do I want to. PIN and cash are both fast enough for me.
