Freddie Potts reveals his dream dinner party guest list
Freddie Potts’ five-man dinner party guest list was as varied as it was entertaining.
“I think Donald Trump would be quite interesting to speak to. I think speaking with Trump might get a bit too deep, so I would also invite Ricky Gervais because he would lighten the mood up a little bit,” he said.
“Cristiano Ronaldo and Elon Musk would be quite cool to speak to, as I listen to a lot of his podcasts, and he seems quite cool.
“Finally, I think I need someone to sing a song after dinner, so I will go with Ed Sheeran.”
