A friend forwarded me something on Facebook which asked "If you were kidnapped and had to be rescued by the last people you watched on TV - who would that be?" My answer would be Michael Weston and Sam Axe from Burn Notice so I would good. Who would be rescuing you?

Colin Firth and Nicole Kidman, so that's me and Mrs C sorted thank you very much.

Now to get kidnapped!

Watched The Railway Man last night. Colin Firth, good choice!

David Dimbleby, well at least we could have a sensible conversation, even if I didn't get rescued{wink}

Sean Bean for sex appeal and Bill Turnbull for intelligence.

Barnaby and Jones! At least they could call on the full might (?!) of the Midsomer force to back them up.

Life of Pie. Now, do I trust that tiger. Hmmmmmm.

Fireman Sam.

My initial thought was I wish I had been watching NCIS...

Because I was watching gossip girl and thought that's me done in for but maybe I would be OK as their all super rich and rather conniving smile

James Martin - not only could he rescue me & he's a good Yorkshire lad (I'm from Yorkshire originally) also he could cook me some lovely food + he's gorgeous

Idris Elba would do for me what a hunk.

GrannyO Mon 27-Jun-16 11:18:46

Noooooo - it was Big Brother, kill me nowwww ...

Watched The Musketeers (recorded) so I'll choose Tom Burke, he looks fairly strong and capable!

ozzozzchrisjune Mon 27-Jun-16 11:27:29

That would be Jeff Lyne ELO at Glastonbury.

sweetcakes Mon 27-Jun-16 11:41:04

For me definitely it would be Gibbs and his team from NCIS although I would be missing DiNozzo as he's left!!

Read this thread this morning, while watching a rerun of Hawaii 5-0 (the new ones). So lucky me gets to be rescued by Alex O'Loughlin (Steve McGarrett). As long as he takes his time rescuing me and escorting me back to freedom I'll be happy! Mmmmmmmmm.

Like Crofty, Colin Firth and Nicole Kidman, but I'd actually like it to be Stellan Skarsgard (same film)!

Willow500 Mon 27-Jun-16 12:29:05

Stephen Dillane and Clémence Poésy from The Tunnel - they'll be fine thanks grin

GrannyJane Mon 27-Jun-16 12:40:51

Postman Pat. Doesn't look hopeful, does it?

suelowe25 Mon 27-Jun-16 12:41:17

Sorry ...old age ! I meant Diane Abbott ....

BBbevan Mon 27-Jun-16 12:46:20

Jo Brand, That should be fun grin

NonnaW Mon 27-Jun-16 12:51:30

Coldplay

We watched a recording of the Durrells. Charming people but not, I suspect, the best for a hostage situation.

Wish I'd been watching the Night Manager. Tom Hiddleston would have done very nicely.
