Yes a copy cat but semi-serious.

For me, Ronnie Barker. Hilarious guy.

Here he is in probably his most famous Two Ronnies sketch.

4. Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
I don't know how long we could keep him around, but I'd make him Obama's economic advisor while we had him.

6. Brandon Lee
It's too tragically ironic how he went. He wasn't the greatest actor, but he was getting better.
