I'll start - Liz from Motherland.

She's funny, never judges, down to earth and crude as fuck just like me. Plus she is single and has absolutely shit luck with relationships. Also me!

Andy & Lance from The Detectorists- I’d be very happy having a chat with them, detecting and being a member of the DMDC

Jess from who’s that girl.

Another vote for Miranda. Such fun!

Beaten to it with Andy and Lance. I would be so happy joining in with all of the meet ups down the pub.

Miranda would be a fun friend for a bit, but exhausting after a while.

Jake from Brooklyn is an excellent choice - funny and loyal.

Louisa Durrell in The Durrells.

Jerry's mom from Seinfeld. I'd like to stay with her in Florida when it's not hurricane season. Although I think the pull down bed may not be comfy.
Kate Costas from Frasier.
Roz Doyle from Frasier.

Jemma Foster from Dr Foster.
Loves wine,doesn't take shit

Saul Goodman every time 😊😊**

Raymond Reddington. Fun, quirky, generous and dangerous.

queenrollo · 03/10/2022 08:16

Ma Larkin (but particularly the Pam Ferris version)

From A Streetcar Named Desire?

Amy from Big Bang Theory

GrouchyKiwi · 03/10/2022 09:04

Tami Taylor from Friday Night Lights.

She'd be the best, most supportive friend, and she could give me haircare tips.

Bry123 · 03/10/2022 09:09

Roz from Frasier.

Oh yes! DH would be a bit 'matthew' about it though, probably quite fairly.

Personally I’d rather be friends with Robyn. Bit ironic really 😂

halfsiesonapotnoodle · 03/10/2022 09:16

Gene Hunt. Friends with benefits would work nicely!

Carrieonmywaywardsun · 03/10/2022 09:17

Sookie St James

I asked Op’s question of my dd and she answered: Harry Potter.

Pumpkinpatchlookinggood · 03/10/2022 09:20

Mr Caplin from The Blacklist. Never know when that sort of knowledge will come in handy!

I asked Op’s question of my dd and she answered: Harry Potter.

I love the books but in real life would despise harry. Imagine being in his year group, always wanting attention, disrupting the year, suck up to the head teacher, getting awarded ridiculous house points that ruin the entire year for everyone. Urgh!
