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

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).

My mum about my dad, they met in a hotel they were working in and she got pregnant with me but decided she didn't have to marry him. They split she came back home with me. As I grew up she never spoke about him and I never asked. Figured if he couldn't be bothered then why should I. When she died she left a photo of a man in the back of my baby book. You just think you have time to ask but then realise you don't.

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

I know the answer to this one. Are we allowed to answer?

I’d ask Marie Kondo to sort out my home for me and help me de-clutter!

I'd like to ask a surgeon what's their most memorable surgery to date?

I'd also like to ask Andy from CBeebies if he wants to come for tea Halo

I would ask my father's mother who my father's father was and how she coped being a single mother in the 1930's

I'd like to ask Russell Brand if he knows he's the person most mumsnetters claim to have shagged the most often?

He's prolific on the celebrity encounter threads.

Sleepybumble · 09/03/2020 17:06

I'd ask Boris if he feels any responsibility for deaths due to benefit cuts

wheretoyougonow · 09/03/2020 18:58

I would ask Boris how many children he actually has 😂

JoyceDivision · 10/03/2020 05:53

I'd ask (with the caveat he has to be truthful) my paternal grandfather why he was so violent to his wife, his children, why he walked out on her 3 times and went to court to have her declared unfit to avoid paying any maintenance, why he was verbally abusive and does he recognise the damage done to his children. I'd hope realised what a failure he is in our eyes and how he lived a wasted life, other than producing children he was a vile human being.

@kpo58s questions are great - esp re training

RippleEffects · 10/03/2020 07:44

@JoyceDivision Mary left because GBBO moved to channel 4 and she said the Beeb had always been loyal and supportive to her so...
