MNHQ (and four bottles of Baileys) HERE: If you could ask anyone anything - who and what would you ask, we ask?

[LilyMumsnet]

Hello folks,

We're thinking about arranging some official AMA (Ask Me Anything) threads and we'd love to know who your dream AMA guest is.

Ever wondered what Tom Hardy dips into his tea? Lost sleep whilst thinking about how Claudia gets her hair so glossy? Curious as to whether her Maj ever settles down with Phil and a tray of snacks to binge-watch The Crown?

Or maybe you’ve wondered what working life is like for a paramedic; how successful entrepreneurs made their fortune; or what school receptionists find most annoying about their job?

Anything goes - so let your imagination run free and tell us who you’d like to see do an AMA by the 20th March to be in with a chance to win a limited edition bottle of Red Velvet Cupcake Baileys. We'll be picking four random winners from this thread.

In the meantime, you can check out some past AMAs here to get some ideas.

P.S If you want to ogle at Baileys collection of flavours, click this creamy link (but you'll need to confirm your age, first).

Competition terms and conditions

I want to know if the RF watch The Windsors and whether they find it funny or offensive 👑

Jessie J, I would love to ask her how she learnt to stop talking when she was nervous,
I have the same issue but have not quite figured out how to stop my mouth from talking, when my brain is yelling at me to STFU.

Would love to ask Sue Radford a few questions on how she manages all those children! Or ask a hunted contestant how the show really works

I would ask Malala if she feels pressured to pursue a particular career path once she's left university, or whether she feels she has complete freedom to do whatever she wants?

I'd like to ask Jo Brand how she got to be so freaking awesome, what she thinks of the current message around mental health (and whether excludes people with severe / enduring conditions), and for writing tips.

I'd also like to ask her these questions whilst sharing my bottle of Baileys with her

OOOh someone from MN Towers!
I'd ask 'So how come there are only three two bottles of Baileys left?

Mary Berry - how did she come to the decision to quit GBBO?

Kim Noble the artist might be an interesting one as her condition isn't represented at all in the media - can't think of anything to ask right now though!

I'd love to ask Jay Rayner what his favourite meal his mum ever cooked him was. They were really close and he must have some memories of family meals before the fancy ones.

A bands tour manager. I would love to know if it is fluffy slippers and cocoa when the fans cannot see.

I would like to ask MIck Jagger how he has so much energy.

I would like to ask the makers of Always et al why the think women need scented sanpro.

I'd also like to ask a RF representative whether, whilst in bed, the Queen pulls her covers up to her neck and says 'Look Philip, I'm a stamp' and if not, why not.

I'd love to ask Sandi Toksvig what it's like working on QI.
I love QI.

I'd also like to ask Helen Sharman what it was like to be the first woman aboard the MIR spacestation, and if she would send my 6 year old DD an autograph, as DD is obsessed with space and tells me she is being Helen when she puts her astronaut outfit on

Forensic scientist

Funeral director

Personal assistant to a celeb

Sue Radford, she fascinates me. I only have two uniforms and two packed lunches and I'm ready to fall asleep.

Bob Mortimer!

Thanks for all the suggestions so far - we're enjoying them! Keep them coming.

AMA

(and also, we have this weird cupboard where we keep the alcohol but it sort of disappears like magic...)

I’d ask Freda Payne what the backstory of “Band of Gold” was.

I would ask Marilyn Monroe to tell me all about JFK

clearly that could never happen, but you did say let your imagination run wild!

I would ask Princess Diana what she thinks of both her daughters-in-law and whether she approves of Harry moving to Canada with Meghan (I think she probably does - obviously if there's an afterlife, which there probably isn't).

Talking of the afterlife, I'd ask Derek Acorah if he's going to appear on Most Haunted any time soon.

@StillDisappointed - That is an amazing question - I'm crying!! I really hope the RF rep gets asked.

I'd like to ask Sir Tim Berners-Lee whether he has any regrets about the internet given how social media can impact people's lives.

Haha! Bob Mortimer lives round the corner!

I'd like to ask Ben Silbermann what his favourite Pinterest post is - quite a dull one I know but I lose hours scrolling through page after page on Pinterest!
