If you could invite 1 person to a fantasy dinner (dead, alive, fictional (maybe we could expand it into people who aren't even born yet?)) who would you invite and why? This question came up on loads of the application forms I was filling out last year for the big ad agencies and is pretty much guaranteed to come up in any ad interview. However it may also stray into everyday situations. I'll let you into my thinking on the subject! 1 person is easy! For me its Sooty. The reason for this being:- What does Sooty sound like? Some people say he cant talk but they're wrong, he can talk. I have seen him whispering into peoples ears! Also on the same theme what accent does he have? He could be a cockney geezer, a brummie, scouse who knows? Maybe he could be from foreign lands?
- What does Sooty eat? I don't think I have ever seen him eat? I think he probably doesn't eat which is a positive for me. You see for a fantasy dinner you will probably be eating at a very posh restaurant and judging by the portion sizes I have seen on the tele from posh restaurants I could eat two mains no problems, so if Sooty doesn't eat that all the more for me!
- What is he like in real life? On tele he is great, but is he a bit of a diva in real life?
- He's entertaining!!!! He can do magic after all! Also if he gets a bit boring/is a diva then you can just lock him in his box!
At the moment for two people I would choose Sooty and Hugh Jackman. For my feelings on Hugh see my previous post.
Its when you have to think of 3/4 people that it becomes a little more tricky! I wont go into that here as I overthink the whole thing, so much so that I could probably write a dissertation on the subject and to be honest its quite disturbing the lengths I have thought into this! So I will avoid it!
