I would take:

  1. My boyfriend Johnny Depp -allroudn entertainer and mind-taker-offerer
  2. Dave Grohl - musical accompaniement and he f*&in ROCKS
  3. Anthony Bourdain - cooks up a storma likes an after dinner port and cigar
  4. Dom Joly or Jack Dee, can't really call it - I like a laugh
  5. Extraordinarily fit and lithe and young surfer I happened to catch out of the corner of my eye at the beach today while I was making sandcastles with the FBs and he was getting out of his wetsuit - eye-candy and may be usefull in fashioning bivouacs and shimmying up coconut trees.

and yours?

The Spice Girls
I'm an altruist I'd do it solely to save the world from their reunion
And to give someone else a shot at OK fron covers...

I'm all heart me...

But I'd also need to take
earplugs
and a gun

OggsfrogswartsExpress · 18/07/2007 22:40

Gael Garcia Bernal - he is perfection!
John Simm - I am developing a slight fatal (okay, maybe not fatal) attraction ;)
Johnny Depp - like, duh!
Bill Nighy
Ewan McGreggor - I'm into kilts

TheDuchessOfFawkesBride · 18/07/2007 22:46

1). James Purefoy dressed as Mark Anthony and behaving like him.
2). Sean Bean dressed as Sharpe
3). Johnny Depp for drinking rum and singing pirate songs.
4). My friends teenage son
5). Feel I should put someone useful like Ray Mears or Hugh Fearnley, for hunting, cooking, making camps, lighting fires and having drinking competitions. Hugh and I could discuss chickens for hours.

Cali, bugger thinking about Clive Owen in the RADA dressing rooms..... I'm thinking about Clive Owen in the buff

Don't you think that Jake Gyllenhaal looks like a young Clive??

Why haven't you eaten in 48hrs?

TheMuppetMuggle · 18/07/2007 22:52

This is a tough one

    • Johnny Depp - just coz you have to!
    • Matthew Perry - coz he's cute & funny
    • Colin Firth - He's gorgeous, & he could read to me.
    • David Beckham - Just to watch him play football (with others)
    • Jamie Oliver - he gets on my wick but i'd need someone to cook.

  1. Billy Connolly for laughs and campfire stories
  1. Patrick Swayze for dance lessons

  2. Kurt Russell (I have a weird thing for him, sorry!)

  3. Ray Liotta for sex and just for looking at generally

  4. Ray Mears for making me a nice comfy bed away from big spiders and snakes and getting the dinner on.

without looking so as not to prejudice myself.

  1. Thierry Henry. for obvious reasons. (a game of keepy-ups)
  2. Mac from the Green Wing, just in case I get sick.
  3. Piers Brosnan to protect me, to mend things, and to get rid of poisonous spiders
  4. Boris for fun and a bit of intelligent debate
  5. DH
hatwoman · 18/07/2007 23:21
