Following on from the celebrities you could get on with, what people would you have at an exclusive dinner party?

For me; Comedians. Billy Connolly, Eddie Izzard, Peter Kay, Kevin Bridges, and Janey Godley.

Gays. Judge Rinder, Paul O’ Grady, Graham Norton, Boy George, and Julian Clary.

Women. Sandi Toksvig, the Queen, Joanna Lumley, Barbra Streisand, and Jane McDonald.

I dislike the term "politically correct" and I also dislike the term "politically correct brigade"

I think Gransnetters should be able to make a polite comment about something that makes them feel uncomfortable without being subjected to scornful remarks.

Some ot them expressed a dislike for a separate classification being made for gay people, and I agree with them.

Gay people are still seen by some as "other" and are treated differently or subjected to violent attacks because of it.

Would it have been thought OK to have a separate classification for "Blacks", "Jews", etc. etc. etc.?
