To uninvite Stephen Fry from my dinner party and invite Gary Barlow instead?

[chicaguapa]

I have Stephen Fry, Eddie Izzard and Chris Evans on my guest list. But I really want Gary Barlow to come too, so I've decided that Stephen has to go. AIBU?

Awww! But I think Gary Barlow is quite funny.

Graham Norton is a possibility. I'd probably uninvite Chris Evans for him.

You just don't know what they're like when they're not performing, do you? Like Rhod Gilbert. I find him side-splittingly funny, but can imagine him being a bit of a miserable git over dinner.

I'd like Victoria Coren and David Mitchell. Not sure if the third would be Sue Perkins, Jo Brand or Eddie Izzard.

It would be very hard to cater for. Eddie Izzard is vegan and Gary Barlow doesn't eat carbs....

(I really wish I knew more about the conflict in Mali than this sort of thing)

Oh, shit, I forgot Eddie. He can be third.

I think DH would think he'd died and gone to heaven if he had Stephen Fry, Dara O'Brien and Brian Cox for dinner. And I'd be bored rigid and wished I'd invited Gary Barlow.

Redmayne that is. I could gaze at his freckles during lulls in the conversation.

Brian Cox always comes across as very interesting especially his tales of being in D:Ream which sounds like a blast.

Oh, I don't cook for vegetarians or vegans. So that's Eddie uninvited. I can cope with turning up dressed as a woman, but not being fussy about food.

and Gary Barlow doesn't eat carbs....

Am I the only one who read that as Gary Barlow doesn't eat crabs? A dinner party without crabs shouldn't be too hard to cater for surely.

I like the idea of a themed dinner party. You'd have to have the comedian one last though or you'd be comparing the fun of that with all the others.

I do think Eddie R is gorgeous but I'm afraid they'd have to bring more to the table than looking good. I can stare at a picture of them on the computer. I want stimulating conversation.

I know someone who dated Eddie Redmayne for two years.

Brian Cox, the physicist guy was in DReam, seriously?

Nancy. PLEASE tell me she was a frumpy middle-aged crone. let me think I would stand a chance...

Mardy - sadly she is a very beautiful ex Cambridge Dr.

Nancy You could have lied!

Get rid of Chris, keep Stephen and Gary and Eddie.

i think Stephen would be a conversation hogger. I can also see him having those bad table manners that posh people sometimes have - where he'll just reach across the table rather than ask for something to be passed.

Gary Barlow would be dull I think. I'm not sure that I could cope with Prof Cox either.

I'd quite like Victoria Wood, Martin Clunes, Julia Bradbury and Leo Moran (Saw Doctors) and possibly Noel Fielding, although I'm not sure if I should save him for another day.

I'm probably thinking about this too much...

For a man who doesn't eat carbs, GB is a bit of a chunker. I thought he had the look of someone who'd enjoy a good dinner. I wouldnt invite him to dinner simply due to food faddishness if that's true. He's also dull and a boring Tory (as opposed to an amusing Tory)

Ok... I'm saving Noel for another evening and I'll stick Chris Evans in with that lot.

That is my final guest list... better go and pick up the wine .

No, no, no.

Uninvite the lot and have a tete a deux with David Beckham don't tell Posh
