With Jim Carey from my childhood he always used to make lough n I really like him :))

Being realistic I'd say Mark Kermode.

But since he's at his most entertaining when confronted with a truly appalling film, and I'd rather not go to one of those, I'll go for my all time Fantasy Movie Date of Lord Byron. I'd take him to a rom com and he'd be hilariously bitchy and if the film got boring who knows how we'd pass the time.

Rob Brydon as I have recently developed a huge crush on him!

David Beckham or Johnny Depp - not bothered which one! Both as handsome and lovely as each other!

Claudia Winkleman seems like she'd be good fun for a chat before and after, and I bet she'd share her pick n mix.

Mark Rylance. Because he was amazing in Wolf Hall and I saw him as Richard III on stage and he is so brilliantly understated in his acting he could shed some light on how over the top some acting is nowadays.

Will Farrell, Conan O'brien or Kevin Hart... They're hilarious. Of course I wouldn't be able to follow the film but it would be fun.

Jo Brand - I think she is an amazing woman - intelligent and funny. I think we'd have a lot in common.

Russell Brand. If when he spoke during the film, I could legitimately tell him to shuuuush.

Jane Austen - she'd very quickly pick up the idea of films, and I think our favourites would be the ones with sharp dialogue, yet with volumes spoken by a single glance - the films where every detail is a revelation.

And she'd hate almost all recent rom comes so we could bitch happily about those.

Vince Vaughn. I think he's funny and handsome. He seems like he'd be a great date.

Idris Elba or Benedict Cumberbatch. I wouldn't care much about the film choice or probably pay much attention to the plot!

Steven Tyler when he was younger. I could just sit and rub his lovely leather clad legs in the back row.....

Jennifer Lawrence. She comes across as very down to earth and great fun and I think I'd love to be mates with her. We'd go and get a few drinks first and be a bit tipsy and giggly in the cinema, getting shushed by the people in the row behind !

I don't understand this question. Surely in the cinema you sit in silence in the dark watching a film so a celebrity with you is pointless as you don't really interact and can hardly see them!

Having said that I'd be happy to take Stephen Fry as I'm sure he would be very interesting to discuss any film with afterwards

Miranda. We would throw popcorn and shush each other loudly and then get thrown out so we could look indignant and say "rude!"

I immediately thought of Steve Buscemi. Great actor and has been in loads of movies so could tell me all sorts of interesting behind the scenes info.

ewan McGregor

Shakespeare - would be fascinated to know what he would think of contemporary plotting and staging!

I would take any one of the following to the cinemas with me :- Rip van Winkle, Sleeping Beauty, Calvin Coolidge, the Lotus-Eaters (Tennyson poem), or the hero of Wells's 'The Sleeper Awakes'.

Why? ' Cause they'd be fast asleep, leaving me in peace to enjoy the movie!!!

Oscar Wilde. I'd love to hear his thoughts on product placement and how 'comedy' has become so not. . .funny!

Queen Victoria. I think that she would be outraged but perhaps enjoy the drama. It could be entertaining all round.

Liza Tarbuck, would love to meet her, I think she is very funny and seems likes he'd be up for a good chat.

Kevin Bacon. Just because he's ace and I could snuggle up to him.

Channing Tatum.

I don't care what film, we won't be watching it.
