My mainstream five and the reasons I've picked them:

  • BRIAN BLESSED (frankly, I believe he should be in everything)
  • Craig Charles (he's very funny and witty, plus he should be in more stuff IMHO)
  • Jeremy Clarkson (he'd cock everything up and be good comic relief)
  • Joanna Lumley (she gives off the air that she's down for anything, and she was amazing in The Goodies' Audible pilot)
  • Richard Ayoade (he seems an extremely good fit for the show, and reportedly wants to do it, he's just in such high demand nowadays which is a good thing)

Sue Perkins was formerly one of my five, but she's going to be in Series 16. :)

I also have a far-less-mainstream five: Tom Scott, Chris Joel, Gary Brannan, Matt Gray, Will Seaward. #MysteryBiscuits

I would definitely enjoy a Technical Difficulties TM series. My dream would be David Mitchell for the exact reason he'd never do it.

Edit: Also, Brian Blessed is 86! I know he's Brian Blessed, but I still don't think it's a great idea to have an 86 year old doing some tasks. I felt really concerned at some points for Jenny Eclair in the last series and she's only 63
