Yes, for prices ranging from £300 to £5,000 you can share an evening meal with any of your choice from a wide variety of ex soap stars, 80's pop acts, retired sportsmen and gameshow presenters. Reading through their resumes holds the same fascination as staring at the aftermath of a particularly horrific car accident as you drive slowly by. For example ...

Based on my own personal experience of actors and other performing folk I'd be willing to pay £5,000 to have them NOT sit opposite me at a dinner table and run though their favourite stories. However, the temptation to reach into my life's savings and book one of these guys to share a fava bean on toast dinner with just me, a bottle of Italian red wine and an uncovered lightbulb and have me tell THEM stories, in my best Hannibal Lecter voice, is mighty powerful.

Given how so unlike many of these people are to the celebrities they are impersonating I reckon they don't get much work and would be grateful for a free meal and a fiver. Even better, book five or six at the same time and instruct them to stay in character throughout the evening. How about ...
Sharon Stone / Gillian Anderson / Kylie Minogue / Liz Hurley / Lara Croft / Audrey Hepburn
and invite your friends around for after dinner coffee. There again, maybe not, the available Lara Crofts aren't that hot. One of the Audrey Hepburns isn't too bad though and, like the original, could do with a couple of quarter pounders inside her. Ooops, better say cheeseburger to avoid the unintended double entendre.
or
Mr Spock / Colombo / Albert Einstein / Clint Eastwood
and you could all solve a crime together in the basement after pudding
or
Bono / David Bowie / Diana Ross / Victoria Beckham
and host your own charity fund raising concert.
No, wait, even better. Book one real celebrity from the first website and two or three fake ones from the second site and have them all round at the same time and see if any of them notice what you're up to.

I need to think about this a lot more
