Who the * voted for steve redgrave over eurian bevan and loydd george? * gimps.

I shall say once again, democracy doesn't work because there are to many wankers in the world.

[Stevo_trash]

david bleeding beckham over thomas paine!!!!

Who said facism doesn't work.

Its amazing how blinkered peoples eyes get when they are spoonfed crap. Princess Di in the top 10 britons of all time. I think ill keep schtum because what I think of her will probably be edited down till theres nothing left.

[Stevo_trash]

Might as well say it anyone, freedom of speech and all that.

Well princess di was for a starters was born in a cut price 'social elite'. More or less a commoner with no class. A boring piece of skirt to say the least, my hairy sweaty arse has more charisma after a game of footy compared to that hairspray wielding trollop. The only pearls she deserved to have in her drawer were that of the fragent soap variety.

Here 'good' works for the world. Telling people not to step on land mines. Well thanks a * bunch for the tip Di, twas only the other day when i nearly steped on one on the way to the spar shop for a four pack of special brew. I'm sure the many natives who were blown up by the mines whould have appreciated the tips the tips a little sooner. If she was still around today i'm sure she would have begun a campaign to warn people of pubic hair in kellogs cornflakes. Once again, IF SHE ONLY SAID IT BLOODY SOONER.

As for the princess di fund, what is the * point. If looking shy in front of a camera earns you the right to have your own charity, my brother would be * minted by this point of his life.

I found it a shame that it was the same week Mother Theresa died and she got NO coverage whatsoever, despite doing more for the world than that media tart.

[jc]

Mother Theresa's dead? Oh. Yeah. - jc

[Nor]

any scots ?

did you know Brits were responsible for 55% of worldwide inventions, fact for you

[Gigglyboots]

There were only 3 scots in the whole of the 100 - it doesn't figure

[tomwhite]

I just feel all these people are completely incomparible. For example, John Lennon and Charles Darwin... how do you decide which is greater? They are both different people who are well known for completely different things.

I do not think the word "great" is appropriate in describing the order of this list. Maybe "most popular for being great" would be better suited. I mean, J K Rowling?!?!

[ZAQAZ_]

I sadly missed out I was 101 oh well next time I'll be there with the help of you good folks

[The Cornishman]

Despite the immature and selfish comments made above I was genuinley upset when Diana died,the tears welled up in my eyes as I thought of the florists I'd sold a few days before....I wouldn't have minded but I put all the profits into a land mine factory.

[The Cornishman]

And where was P.G Wodehouse!Surley the greatest,funniest,and most prolific writer of the 20th Century.

[Stevo_trash]

of the curator of Beaverbrooks library, the flamboyent and articulate AJP Taylor.

[Sidders]

I don't believe Princess Di is really dead anyway.

[Adam]

Sidla- don't be silly. She's not going to be running some Garden Centre with Elvis in Texas

[Sidders]

'You live by the sword, you die by the sword'

can be translated to mean
'you live by the media, you die by the media'

I just think the irony that she died escaping from paparatzi is too much to believe.

[Adam]

only famous people die by the sword

Is Elvis dead then?

which stone have you been under lately...?

[Nablo.]

........yet again his only Joke comming into practice.

[M+L Fan II]

I am outraged and saddened by the idiotic British public, who totally ignore one of the greatest, if not the greatest British poet ever - I am talking about the sublime Romeo from So Solid Crew.

[Jonny Hoare]

top 100 britions

Diana???

Look at most of the top ten died too soon....

Would lennopn be the best beatle if he hadn't got shot, would diana be in it if she still was sleeping around with playboys

Hoare's 10 britians

churchill, bevan, brunel, trevithick, davy, dimbleby (snr), matthews, richard, olivier

[Chief Erf]

churchill, bevan, brunel, trevithick, davy, dimbleby (snr), matthews, richard, olivier

Jamie Oliver??

[Stephen.]

Olivier not Oliver

Stephen.

[Sidders]

Lawrence Olivier was a crap actor. Kenneth Brannagh is a far better shakesperian actor than he was.

I always thought Paul was the most talented one out of the Beatles. Why the hell was George Harrison in it? It's only because he died recently.

[Scottie]

Yeah right, "crap actor".....

[Sidders]

Ok, in my opinion Lawrence Olivier was a crap actor.
