So, I was sitting at my desk at home the other day trying to think of something new and exciting that nobody has done before.

Stephen Mangan

Piers Morgan

Stephen Fry

Sir Paul McCartney

Jeremy Clarkson

Nick Clegg

Liam Neeson

Harry Hill

Dawn French

Donald Trump

Tom Selleck

Brian Blessed

Drawing really isn't my thing, as you can see. If you can do better, and you probably can, please do share your efforts with me on twitter (@quebectango).
