Rubbish title but hopefully you know what I mean.

Sir David Attenborough
Tom Hanks
Usain Bolt
Judy Dench

See this one wouldn't surprise me at all, he's given me the creeps since I was little. Sorry!

I’ve definitely heard other people insinuate that he was involved in inappropriate behaviours with underage girls in his earlier days.

It wouldn’t surprise me at all.

I agree about Tom Hanks.

And Ricky Gervais….although for some reason it wouldn’t surprise me.

I’d be gutted if it came out that Leonardo Di Caprio was a wrong ‘in….. I’ve always had a soft spot for him.

To be honest, I'm still recovering from Rolf Harris.....

Me and my husband are currently watching a documentary about him actually.

I’m an 80’s kid and I remember loving him….but watching this documentary just makes me realise how creepy he actually was.

Mr Maker, we've met him a couple of times and he's just so lovely. I'd be gutted.
