Wow, there are some really opinionated, forceful, intelligent, gobby, ego-led people on these lists that I would love to hear have a meal, but not actually be a guest myself. I can envisage great food fights!
My list might be a bit tame:
Harriet Walter
Eileen Atkins
Helen Mirren
Julie Walters.
A quartet of Dames.

I should confess it wasn’t originally meant as a sincere answer, I was quoting the chant from the pop “classic” Vindaloo.
But now you mention it, I would like to pretend that I meant it sincerely!
