My father was a sergeant in The New Kings Regiment during WW2 and his hero was Winston. I read my fathers notes and diaries from his time on the front line and that is how I know of his respect for Churchill.

My own favourite is where a female MP accused him as being drunk - his reply ' Madam you are ugly, but in the morning I'll be sober!' (maybe apocryphal).

Steve Tingle, Also when told that if they were married, she would put poison in his drinks, to which he is stated to have replied "if we were married, I would drink it".

Steve Tingle, Yes, he had a lightening wit. He also stated when told his pants were unzipped " A dead bird does not fly from its nest"....
