Hide AdTo establish a definitive answer to the pressing question, a jury of nine comedians, actors and writers will come together to debate the topic on TV channel GOLD tonight (10 Aug).
The panel of famous faces is made up of Sally Phillips, Stephen Mangan, Nina Wadia, John Thomson, Ronni Ancona, Darren Harriott, David Quantick, Boyd Hilton and Roy Hudd.
