I think you've probably just highlighted why the public are only being allowed to nominate on this one rather than nominate and vote ! Looks like someone up high has learned a lesson.

They'll become a lot more common in the future.

Newton was on the £1 bank note, so I'll go for Faraday.

Faraday has been on a note.

I'd personally vote for Turing but I think they'll pick a woman. I reckon it will be Franklin

Another vote for Alan Turing, if it had not been for Ultra it might be Herman Goering on the back of the note.

2.5 years too late for that lesson :p

I'd go for Turing as well

Turing, a pioneer of science with practical application, not just another theoretical physicist jockey.
