Kings and Queens - Your Picks Afty



So, with the Queen’s Jubilee this weekend I’ve decided to ask some of the British players in the Bootleggers community who they would pick to be King or Queen if they had the choice to replace them. The King or Queen might only be for show these days, but they do still have a position of influence, they are classed as a tourist attraction and they have to be somewhat interesting.

My own choice: Karl Pilkington. If you do not know who he is then I suggest you find out. He is a brilliant genius that is also an idiot. To give an example, his view on having art and paintings in your house isn’t necessary: “Stop looking at the walls, look out the window.”

Marcellus picked: Jim Jeffries. He is an Australian comedian. Not sure if I’m comfortable with being ruled by an Aussie, but still. Marcellus says “I love his views on life it would have to be him!”

letmelive picked: Steven Gerrard or Natasha Kaplinsky. They are an odd coupling, I’ll give you that, but to each their own. For those who don’t know, Steven Gerrard is a footballer and Natasha Kaplinsky is a news reader. letmelive explains that she picked Gerrard “because he’s gorgeous” and Kaplinksy “because I like her name and she’s a cool news reader.”

GeneralLucas picked: Lee Evans. Another comedian chosen, they seem to be a popular choice. If you are unaware of Lee Evans, you might’ve seen him in a few films, he was in ‘There’s something about Mary’ and ‘Mousetrap’, among others. He’s also been one of the top British comedians of the last 20 years.

Maestro picked: “The guy that created Assassin’s Creed” aka Patrice Désilets. I’m pretty sure that Maestro was being facetious in his response, but I’m going to take it literally. I hope he said that because he likes the game series very much. However, he has picked a Frenchman to become the British head of state. Blasphemy!

Tyn picked: Cheryl Cole. Well, what can you say? She is already a national treasure. She is also very popular with the British public. And as Tyn says, “She's northern, she likes a good scrap and she's aesthetically pleasing.” To quote Frankie Boyle: “finally I can wank to the twenty pound note again.”

sp0k3y picked: Charlie Sheen. I'm not sure how that would work out, though I'm almost definitely sure it would end in trouble. sp0k3y's reason: “because then Britain would always be 'winning'.” WINNING!
