Which national treasures do you like? (having read the NT you don't like thread)

[sweatervest]

i can't think of many/any but I do like christine bleakley but I don't think she's got NT status.

Judi Dench I like. She doesn't take herself seriously.
Tom Hanks - not sure if he can get NT status seeing as he's not British.
Stacey Dooley

Patricia Routledge DEFINITELY. I loved her as Kitty.

Graham Norton replied to a letter I wrote to him (in the year 2001) and I've still got the signed photo he sent me so I've always thought that he's my bff. (I didn't even ask him for a photo but he was probably feeling generous)

Michael Palin.

I like DA even more now!

Valerie Singleton

I love Clare Balding, her radio 4 Ramblings and as a TV sports presenter. I've seen her live twice now in conversation on stage, really genuine, kind and funny.

Michael Palin
Celia Imrie
Pam Ferris

Celia imrie absolutely. She could sing with the arctic monkeys and be "celia indie"

Paul o grady
Graham Norton
Judi Dench
JKR
Joana Lumley
Julie Walters

Your choice, goes on about climate warming, but has been quite happy to jet all around the world in his excursions, I really had enough of him when he said 'if we move towards a plant-based diet, etc; etc; on one of his programmes, never mind about the struggling Farmers and everyone else who is dependent on the food-chain for employment (including me !)........😊

I’ve met Michel Roux and he’s a lovely man.

Hush now. No one wants to hear it.

If you want to slag off the greatest person currently alive Attenborough, hie yourself off to the negative thread. This one is about positivity and appreciation.

Obviously Attenborough, JKR, Brians Cox (is that the correct plural?) Palin, Julie Andrews,

If we can include those who've died, Dame Maggie Smith, Julie Walters and Victoria Wood.

DAVID ATTENBOROUGH|| I knew his postman (Richmond). He said David was the nicest , most obliging and polite guy. I also know some people who work with him professionally and they are unanimous in praise for him. He is a good man.

Julie Walters hasn't died, has she?!

Richard E. Grant. The End.

God, no! I'm an idiot!

I thought of Victoria Wood, then of course Julie, then I didn't think that OBVIOUSLY Julie's alive.

What a twonk. I do apologise to HRH Julie, Queen of Birmingham.

Michael Palin obvs

I wasn't aware of the 'negative' thread when I made my original post, as I can't delete or edit posts, then it will just have to stay here, 'nuff said !......😏

It's literally in the title of this thread.

Patricia Routledge, Sue Johnstone,David Attenborough ,Chris Packham, Diane Morgan (not an NT yet but I think she will be), George Michael,who quietly gave loads to charity, Mark Gatiss, very funny, clever writer who is apparently extremely nice & kind but has an acerbic wit so just my kind of person.
