You’re on your work friend’s hen. Turns out her cousin/auntie/pal from uni is a celeb you’ve always liked and thought would be good value on a night out. Who is it?

I’m going with Sharon Horgan. Partly influenced by her characters, admittedly, but she’d hopefully also lend me something cracking to wear.

My fantasy celeb best friend group is Ruth Jones, Sally Lindsey and Suranne Jones. They seem such fun, my face hurts just thinking about how much laughing we would do.

That would make me leave instantly as I cannot abide her!

Yet she speaks highly of you I have heard!

I know she’s no longer with us, but Victoria Woods. She seemed so clever, obviously hilarious and I bet she was kind too.

I would be over the moon if it was Sheridan Smith.

Or Sally Whittaker she used to get on my nerves on corrie. But now I love her. Her and Tim can never split up.

Helen - the wine lady off Saturday Morning Kitchen. She actually looks like she would absolutely slot into my friendship group no problem at all!

Joanna Lumley.

Stewart Granger

Jodie Comer - especially if she agreed to act as Villanelle all night.

Probably wouldn't be missed....

This actually happened, well it was the wedding not the hen, and obviously I won’t say who it was but she is a popular reality tv personality. I was a bit taken aback when I saw her and her partner sat at my table but she was lovely.

I’m very glad it wasn’t someone I was a big fan of though because I feel like that (I) would’ve been awkward.

Grace Slick

Patsy Kensit

I’ve been out on multiple nights out with quite a few people on this thread. Some of them would disappoint!

Lisa tarbuck. I really miss her radio 2 show.

Why 'obviously'? We all want to know!

Sharon Osborne

She is an absolutely horrible person

MrsHeeler · 10/08/2026 00:02

Angela Scanlon, Meera Syal, Ruth Jones, Judi Love, Rihanna would be amazing, Alison Hammond and Mel or Sue. Helena Bonham Carter could be fun too.

CaveMum · 11/08/2026 15:05

Marina Hyde - mainly in the hope that she’d get very drunk and spill all the celeb gossip she has!
