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?

He is dead!

Haha, I know he is, Charleygirl, but I was treating this thread like the 'Dinner Party Guests' one. And he was the last person I saw on TV! grin

Someone from The Great Sewing Bee, but I cannot remember whether it was a contestant, presenter or judge.

Watching Masterchef (recorded) - not sure about the rescue but at least I shouldn't be hungry!

Oh wait, there's a much dishier (and younger) historian on now, called Prof Greg Walker. He can be my knight in shining armour any time.

Since I am now watching a history programme on BBC4, it might have to be Dsvid Irving. I think I would rather stay and make friends with my kidnappers - Stockholm Syndrome.

Any of the Casualty cast, hopefully Jacob! Well, he`s dishy and looks strong enough......he`d need to be!

breeze Sun 26-Jun-16 18:14:14

Not sure you can top WhenIwasyourage! Bond, James... Bond! she'd be rescued, little shaken, maybe stirred! I'd be stuffed. Just watched some clever women making knickers and things whilst waiting for Glasto. Rescued by large pair of pants?

Charleygirl Sun 26-Jun-16 18:09:48

He is dead!

Indinana Sun 26-Jun-16 17:57:03

Currently watching Columbo. He'll do grin

Ellie somebody from Countryfile

mrshat Sun 26-Jun-16 17:51:37

The Irish footballer who was sent off!!! grin

Wheniwasyourage Sun 26-Jun-16 17:18:53

James Bond. I would be sorted, but sadly it was Sean Connery in From Russia with Love, so it might take him a bit longer that it would have in those days. Still, better than IDS!

Some bleddy footballer with a silly haircut,

granjura Sun 26-Jun-16 17:11:06

Iain Duncan Smith - I'm **** sad

harrigran Sun 26-Jun-16 17:07:45

I have just watched the France match so I hope it would be one of their players.

Charleygirl Sun 26-Jun-16 16:26:42

The French and Irish football players- I would be fine, safety in numbers.

ginny Sun 26-Jun-16 16:20:20

I was watching an old film. Pretty sure most of the actors are dead so I have no chance !

Lapwing Sun 26-Jun-16 16:19:07

Watched an old episode of NCIS last night so probably Gibbs.

Avoiding TV today as OH is watching the news on loop. [fed up with the whole thing]
