If you was in a pub with Jimmy after a few lines and 6 dozen vodkas, you may feel differently.

My Sri Lankan newsagent.

The happiest, smiliest little chap you could ever wish to meet.
Recently nicknamed 'Muttiah Muralitharan'.

Richie Benaud.

Seems being a cricket commentator gives an aura of niceness as plenty have got a mention (no Geoff Boycott though)

Benaud does come across as a sound bloke, a bit of comedy value too.

Good point about Benaud, Arsene.

I'll also nominate 'The Doctor' Neville Oliver. Another Aussie cricket commentator, sadly not heard of on TMS for a few years.
Fondly remembered for his love of 'The Shippers' as he called the Shipping Forecast.

I like redbag's choice of Tom Watson, top man he is. (Watson I mean obviously and not the thieving postie.)

Although I never got around to meeting her, Kim Wilde is mates with my Sister and Sister in law and by all accounts she is the lovliest woman you could ever wish to meet. Really warm and funny and when she is not gardening she likes nothing better than to get hammered and belt out a few 80's hits whilst hugging everyone. You can't say fairer than that in my book.

Henry Cecil

I saw him once at a the chelsea flower show with his previous wife and an official would not give him his pre paid tickets because he did not have id on him!  He did not say a word, no ' do you know who i am ' business.

Exactly the same can be said for Ronnie Corbett.

2 people I find impossible to dislike are Novak Djokovic and Psul Sinha from The Chase. Paul just seems a thoroughly nice fella.

Posy where did you hear that about David Attenborough or are you just saying that because he has strong views on climate change.
