The 10 celebrities Yorkshire folk would want at their party

Stock the fridge up with booze and pump the music loud - Yorkshire is having a party!

A new survey has looked at who the people of Yorkshire would want to invite to their party. Two thirds of Yorkshire folk think that the guests make or break a party - so it is important to get the mix right.

Unsurprisingly the ten most desirable guests largely come from the world of entertainment, with one member of the Royal Family in there for good measure.

Check out the full list, from Jet2Holidays' survey, of Yorkshire's favourite party people below...

    Here are the people Yorkshire folk would invite to their party in a heartbeat

    10. Ed Sheeran

    Perhaps rewarded for his Yorkshire roots, Sheeran is straight in at number ten - he plays two huge shows at Roundhay Park later on this year.

    Yorkshire has a lot of love for the Thank U, Next star - she is in at number nine.

    8. Jeremy Clarkson

    Perhaps surprising to see the divisive presenter on the list, however Clarkson is a Yorkshire lad - he was born in Doncaster.

    7. Prince Harry

    Yorkshire fancy a bit of royalty at their party - Prince Harry is in at number seven.

    6. Jack Whitehall

     

    Every party needs a funnyman, Whitehall is in at six. He is coming to the First Direct Arena in December.

    5. Keith Lemon

    Technically he isn't a real person, but he is from Leeds so we'll let him off! Lemon is in at five.

    4. Rylan Clark-Neal

     

    A bit of Essex will be at the party - Rylan is in at four.

    3. James Corden

    The Carpool Karaoke star is in at number three.

    2. Phil and Holly from ITV’s This Morning

    We have more than one person in at number two - it's a party though, rules are there to be broken!

    1. Idris Elba

    DCI John Luther (Idris Elba) returned to our screens for a fifth series in 2019 (BBC)

    So here it is, Yorkshire's number one party person is Luther star Idris Elba! That's the full list, time to get the party started!
