Banksy - So I would know who they actually are.

My grandad (as I would love to know him more) especially if he could send a msg back to the other man my Nan married - my other grandad (because he gave me some good advice as a 6/7/8/13 yr old and I never followed it - he was right and I want him to know I was sorry for not listening)

Terry Pratchett - so he could read The Shepherd's crown to me - I still cant bring myself to read it.

Freddie Mercury - Because he is phenomenal

Naya Rivera - She would be awesome

Eddie Izzard - She never fails to make me roar with laughter, even watching the same routine for the 30th time.
Queen Elizabeth II - I love the royal family, and I especially admire the Queen.
My Nan - She's been dead for 20 years, but if I had the Queen round for dinner, she'd find a way to be there!
Stephen Fry - He's just so warm and wise - and cuttingly sharp!
Louis Theroux - He's been everywhere and seen (almost) everything, a fascinating storyteller.

I hope I don't have to cook though...
