ERM Oct 2016 10:55am, 4 Oct 2016 304 posts	0 ERM Well, I've seen a lot of misty eyed reminiscences about Duran Duran over the past few years, (even to the extent they were talked about in a BT internet advert as being something akin to national treasures and representatives for music of that time.) Wasn't my experience of the make-up and suit wearing goons who seemed to be perma-yachting during the era I was starting to enjoy music, so I thought I'd pop it on here. But look at me talking. I used to be part of a group that would listen to Chas 'n' Dave's "Cockney Party Tape" whenever we'd go to away matches.....

Regular listeners of FT will know about this one. What national 'treasure' do you feel would be better on a skip rather than on a pedestal?

Someone (an MK Dons supporter) proposed AFC Wimbledon, about whom everyone gets misty eyed but he hated.

Other nominations included Bruce Forsyth and Seb Coe.

We were discussing this on the Rugby Wire (whch unforgivably is *not* called "y wifren rygbi ") as Martin Johnson was nominated.

It was suggested that a wider audience might enjoy the challenge.
