Kenneth Tynan (the British theatre critic & general 'commentator') used to write about "high-definition performance", and this comes pretty close to the IT we're talking about here. He listed, among many others, Dietrich, Noel Coward, Muhammad Ali, Eric Morecambe.... Some good suggestions made here (though I boggled at a few - Richard Branson???). I'd throw in a few more: Mariza Estrella Morente Martin Luther King Martina Navratilova (playing tennis, sadly a bit dull off the court) David Bowie John Lydon Eric Cantona Ken Dodd Margaret Thatcher (and I sooooooo wish she hadn't, but she did) And returning to the start of the thread, Amy W undoubtedly had it.
