I'd travel back to 1940 for the birthday treat of witnessing Churchill's 'We Shall Fight on the Beaches' speech in Parliament.

I was 3 and have no memory of him. But I know a lot about him from what my mum's told me and I've seen some films he directed/was in and heard some of his songs (he was famous in Bangladesh)!

That's amazing, it must be nice to look through the films and watch him act in them :ahee:

he was a singer too? Very talented.

Battle of Agincourt and meeting Henry V

Or I'd get a selfie with Richard III

Can I ask why that particular moment in history? And why Henry V, what would you do for the hour you met him? :smile:

yeah that was like the worst day ****ing ever but he finally escaped the allegations and all the other **** the media was causing for him

well sad songs yeah i do feel sad but I can rock out to You Rock My World and songs like that I can celebrate his life :smile:

It's a shame he got so much negative press in his life, he couldn't catch a break :frown:

Aww yes, celebrating his life is the way to go :smile:

You really don't want people to misread the text with them capital letters

I've always wanted to go to medieval Britain to see the shock on their faces of a black man, probably for the first time, speaking English (If they speak Latin I'm screwed :s-smilie:

) and to also just inform them of what has happened in the future :tongue:

Spoiler alert for them

Yah, but you only gave me a single hour! Besides, being a non white guy in say... 17th century England perhaps isn't the best place to be! Nor is it a good place to be in what was then India, when I barely understand the language :biggrin:

Administer oestrogen supplements to Alois Hitler (Schicklgruber). And then shave his moustache as a souvenir.

Nice but get's me emotional tbh. But yeah, so talented. He was a poet, singer, songwriter, actor and director. And definitely passed some talent onto his children.

Go back to the biggest lottery ever paid out, with the numbers from the future memorised ofc, and win it.

1) I've always wanted to witness one of the most iconic battles in medieval history
2) Henry V was IMO one of the greatest British monarchs and he's done some truly amazing things. He was determined to regain the lands in France held by his ancestors and he laid claim to the French throne. He captured the port of Harfleur and on 25 October 1415, he even defeated the French at the Battle of Agincourt.

So he was pretty cool. I'd love to ask him how he does it.

I'd go back in time to the room of awesome genius's parents whilst they were conceiving him.

I'd go back about 1 minute ago when my past version of myself is just about to go back. Then eventually he would go back in time to the past version of himself and start an endless string of myself going back.

Apart from that, would you be tempted to go back in time to meet anyone famous or witness a particularly famous historical point in time? :smile:

As title. You can visit a historical event, meet someone from the past or even go back to a place in your own time line. Only catch is that it's for ONE HOUR, so how do make it worth it and what do you do?

You can be as serious, funny or as creative as you like :smile:
