Re: who would you like to meet?
It would have to be Neil Armstrong for me. The first man to walk on a foreign world - how would you ever be the same again?
Re: who would you like to meet?
I meet all sorts of celebs in my work on and off, but would like to have dinner with Stephen Fry and Jarvis Cocker at the same time. The contemporary Oscar Wilders!

Re: who would you like to meet?
Would love to have met Princess Diana, Elvis Presley and Marilyn Monroe.
As a kid, I met Jimmy Saville when he was out jogging, also thought I spotted Jarvis Cocker at Hampton Court a few years ago. My Mum used to work at a private boarding school and the Qeeun is their Patron - went to their annual summer event one year, which the Queen and Prince Philip attended. Prince Edward and Sophie's residence is also in the village where I'm lvining - never spotted them out and about or in the local Co-op though, but will keep my eyes peeled (excuse the pun!)
