It's all a matter of opinion but four that stand out for me as being odd are:
17) Michael Crawford -
17th greatest Briton of all time? Ridiculous.
77) Robbie Williams -
75) Bob Geldof - he has plenty of fans but not British
86) Bono - see Bob Geldof (I know a couple of solicitors who are pro-Bono)

Never spoken to anyone about Bono who thought he was anything other than a total c**t.
46. Boy George

The huge majority of people who voted for No 67 have confirmed that they didn't vote for him.

Charles Darwin at number 4. Sorry, but cant be having someone I never heard of in the top 10.
Haha what a list. To quote Super Hans- People like Coldplay and voted for the Nazi party. You can't trust people, Jeremy.
Princess Di at 3 and ahead of Shakespeare and Darwin
I hope Erica Rowe made it into the top 20 at least.
Haven't looked at the list, but I'm assuming Enoch is No.1?
They messed up with no 96 Richard Burton they said " There was some question as to whether the Richard Burton listed at #96 is the actor or the explorer. A BBC press release makes it clear that they intended it to be the actor"
Its neither surely has to be the Richard Burton that won the Open Golf Championship

Eric Morecambe 32 and no Saville ,has he been removed ? I wonder ..
James Connolly - the Irish Republican, sounds like a Great Briton. I suppose Choudry and Hamza will make the list some day soon.
Churchill number 1? 
A failed politician, war mongerer who bankrupted the country and destroyed the British Empire?

The list is not worth looking at. I bet Kate Bush isn't even on it.
Clement Atlee and the Labour party destroyed the British Empire, and sold jet engine technology to N. Korea, against the advice of the Americans, that was then used against British and US forces in the Korean war.

in 1947 the Labour PM announced that it would accept the partition of British India into two states creating Pakistan and India.
Greatest Briton...James V1 and 1 the first to become king of both Scotland and England who announced his intention to unite the two realms and the first to give an exclusively British style to his court and person
this would end in a full partership and become "the most powerful going concern in the world"
