The BBC's topical debate programme Question Time began in an usual way this week, featuring a panel of iconic people who all passed away decades ago.
Winston Churchill, Frida Khalo, Mahatma Gandhi and Emmeline Pankhurst briefly featured to introduce the programme's topic – artificial intelligence (AI).

The real life panel consisted of Darren Jones, chief secretary to the prime minister; Julia Lopez, shadow secretary of state for science, innovation and technology; Mo Gawdat, author, entrepreneur and former chief business officer at Google X; Laura Gilbert, senior director of AI at the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change; and Victor Riparbelli, founder and CEO of London-based AI company Synthesia.
