quote:


Winston Churchill has been voted the number one person people would most like to meet in a 'time-travel' poll conducted to celebrate the launch of Doctor Who Adventures magazine, a new fortnightly title aimed at 6 - 12 year olds, launching on 5 April.

Elvis Presley rocked into second place as Churchill's closest competition, followed by Albert Einstein, Marilyn Monroe and Martin Luther King Jr.

1000 people took part in the time-travel themed survey, asking 24-45 year olds, which famous person they would most like to meet, if they could travel back in time.



Top 10 People





1. Winston Churchill


2. Elvis Presley


3. Albert Einstein


4. Marilyn Monroe


5. Martin Luther King Jr


6. Ghandi


7. Princess Diana
















Total of 1000 questioned

Unless he thought he might get their vote its certain Winston would not want to meet them.
He was an old fashioned unreconstructed aristocrat.

Anyone brought up in Blenheim Palace and schooled at Harrow cant possibly be "normal" .
They talk "funny" for a start.
He could write very fluently tho', I'll give 'im that.

Moloch, a man, or woman for that matter, is measured by the company they keep

Was that a case of 'friendly fire'?
