Elvis came top in the list famous people we would like to see brought back from the dead!

The top 10 personalities:
1. Elvis Presley (23%)
2. Princess Diana (20%)
3. Marilyn Monroe (17%)
4. Henry VIII (11%)
5. Bobby Moore (9%)
6. William Shakespeare (6%)
7. Freddie Mercury (5%)
8. Albert Einstein (4%)
9. Winston Churchill (3%)
10. Kurt Cobain (2%)


People were also asked to choose what they thought the stars would be doing if they were alive today and six out of 10 thought Elvis would be a judge on American Idol.:mosher:
 
I'd have chosen Richard III - a much maligned character. He could have sorted this country out from the mess it's in.
 
I have no idea who i would choose, will have to think on this one and get back to you lol
 
Apart from the personal one's like my Dad, I think Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci for his visions of the future and his inventions were way before their time.

I wonder what he would have made of the world today??:eek:
 
buddy holly, richie valens, big bopper, otis redding,the big O, billy fury, eddie cochran,johnny kidd, elvis, marvin gaye, is my 10, theres many more.:)
 
Jam Butty so long as this time he has a sense of humour!

Roy Orbison

I can well understand Elvis being top of the list, though there is a hardcore of fans who really believe he never really went. ;) The Sunday Express magazine had an article about the musical "West Side Story" last week. I didn't know that the film producers had wanted Elvis to play "Tony" but the ridiculous "Colonel" Parker vetoed it. Can you imagine it? Elvis in that superb musical. The knees go weak at the thought.........:D

Colonel Tom would not be on any buggers list, reason elvis never toured outside the usa was him, illegal immigrant n wouldn't let him leave without himself, was scared he would not get back in the states, n therefore lose his "Golden Goose":rolleyes:
 
My ten: Florence Nightingale, John Smith, Otis Redding, Marvin Gaye, Freddie Mercury, John Wayne (loved him in The Quiet Man), James Dean, Winston Churchill, Bob Hope, Buddy Holly.

Hitler , Stalin , Mussolini , Franco , Ghengis Khan , just to see if they were as bad as history paints them , like the old adage says 'the winnners write the history books' ,

would also like to meet a neanderthal/caveman just to see how much if any 'human intelligence' has progressed over the years

This is exactly the sort of thing I mean - all most people 'know' of Richard III is the Shakespeare propaganda written to please the monarch of the day.

Richard III
They lay the blame on you my brother,
But they don't know.
They don't know if it's true my brother,
But still the stories grow:
"He was an evil man!" "A tyrant king." "His heart was cold as stone."
But I could tell a different tale,
For I, yes I alone
Have love this man they live to hate
Who at Bosworth met his doom.
Whilst England cheered at Richard's fate
I cried upon his tomb.

They know him not all those who claim
That they knew this king so well.
But I who speak have loved him dear and fain my tale would tell.
"A bloody man!" "A murderer!" I hear the angry cry,
Whilst in Henry's reign lies Richard, slain.
So young a man to die.

When Lancaster 'gainst Yorkish fought
His swordsmanship was keenly sought.
His kingship late, was dearly bought
With death in blood and rain.
The once put-down Lancastrian crown
Then rose to rule again.

And they leave the blame with you my brother.
How can they tell
The thoughts that lay inside your head when at Bosworth's field you fell?
The "loyal followers of the crown" belong to Henry's army save
One who rejoices not this day, but mourns at Richard's grave.
 
My top 10, in no particular order are:
Marilyn Monroe
Roy Orbison
John Thaw
Freddie Mercury
