The Ultimate Fantasy Guest List podcast with Classic FM’s Tim Lihoreau.
Each week, Tim welcomes a VIP guest to curate their dream dinner party, revealing a list of five fantasy invitees—living or dead, real or fictional, controversial or beloved. But there’s always a twist... will they accept Tim’s ‘gatecrasher’?
“Are they commercially available?”
For all fans of great comedy, Tim Lihoreau’s guest on the podcast this week is the creator of the legendary Outnumbered,
ANDY HAMILTON, answering the question Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner? with five amazing fantasy guests.
As well as Outnumbered, Andy is also responsible for classics like Drop The Dead Donkey and found time to appear on
Have I Got News for You?, QI and News Quiz. He invites an amazing guest list - icons, leaders, spinners and even…someone to annoy everyone!
Will he take The Gatecrasher? You’ll have to listen to find out.

Derren Brown
“THIS…is beef!”
A true one-off legend on the pod this week. Magician, hypnotist, mind reader and more, DERREN BROWN is choosing his 5 fantasy guests this week on Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner - AND it’s a very personal one.
In amongst an amazing array of guests, Derren talks about his life, his dogs (are dogs more susceptible than cats for magic tricks?) and a truly poignant moment talking about his father. PLUS, you won’t believe who his FIFTH guest is!
Host Tim Lihoreau looks into his eyes discusses it all. But will DB take The Gatecrasher? You’ll have to listen to find out.
