I would love to be friends with Emma Kenny - I find her absolutely fascinating.

Graham Norton. I just think he’s a splendid human being.

So many!

Dave Grohl, Mickey Flanagan, Greg Davies, Roisin Connaughty, Emma Willis, Bette Midler, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, Adele, JK Rowling, Taylor Swift and Vanessa Feltz.

And I would have loved to have been friends with George Michael and Vivienne Westwood.

I want to be your friend too! This is a dream wish list!

I honestly can't think of any! When I get to heaven though (assuming they let me in!) I want to be friends with Iva Ibbotson.

Shaun Evans.

I had a dream in which I was an acquaintance of Shaun Evans. It was unbelievably random. He was very nice.

I think Josie Gibson would be a really good friend too actually.

Totally agree with Emma Willis, Claudia Winkleman, Jill Scott and Andi Oliver too.

Someone else I thought of was Sara Davies, I loved the pictures of her meeting Aljaz baby.

Fearne Cotton - she comes across and being good fun, genuine and thoughtful. And she has great taste in clothes and loves cold water swimming so I reckon she'd be a great mate to hang out with.
I'd love to sit next to JK Rowling at a dinner party.

I’d never heard of Emma Kenny before Mumsnet this evening

Totally missed the previous thread about her.

I find her fascinating. I can’t tell you exactly why, but to me she seems honest, driven, straightforward and very open.

She just makes sense.

I also think she’s incredibly beautiful.

I read this week that she’s had a baby at 50, wow.

Jennifer Lawrence

Vanessa Feltz. I think she’d be great to chat to, and would give good advice. She’s such a positive person too.
