Sandburg and Gibran - 2 of my favourite poets + Pink Floyd connection (I still favour "Division Bell" over "The Wall", even though Floyd purists tend to disagree!)are mentioned here, so I have to make a comment. Totally enjoying your presentation of this series. Refreshing to find some "meaty" cameo detail + pic for each celebrity!

Fantastic!

Ah, Khalil Gibran and Mr Bean!

Two of my favourite people, different areas, but both gave me much upliftment and continue to do so. 

No shame, Atkinson deserves his place, if you ask my sons!
