| I guess the problem with if it's one person's list, it makes it much easier to pick holes with. I'm not saying it's a bad list by the way, but surprised by a lot of the omissions (should have made a note of them as I went by, but including Pitt (I am really no fan but he's much more influential than many of the PMs you have included), Hume, Wollstonecraft, O'Connell, Parnell (surely at least as important in the Irish struggle for independence as those listed), Earl Grey (the first steps to democracy came under him), Turner (no artists!!), depending on your definition of importance, maybe someone who was important in film such as Chaplin or Hitchcock, Caxton (introducing printing press to the country), you have lots of people from the civil war period but no John Lilburne, I could go on.... It's really not a bad list though (better than that BBC one a few years back - this one doesn't have Princess Diana for a start which was a ridiculous addition to the other one) |
