Ok, I searched but it seems nobody has thought of this one. It must be somebody currently living -- be nice!

Me who would I choose --- Mmm ---- I'll have to think about that.

I don't know whether to engage the lecherous or cerebral side to answer that. if only there were a response that would satisfy both!!!!

Never can one person have been stuck in a lift and so many people know about it. Stephen Fry used Twitter to tell his followers (113,068 and rising fast!) that he was marooned in a lift on the 26th floor of London's Centrepoint late last night. "We could be here for hours. Arse, poo and widdle." Still, Fry didn't waste his time in the small metal box. Oh no. He took a picture. "Engineers on their way in 20 minutes apparently." And another one. "This is getting boring. Morale still high. Hopes of early night dashed." But it turned out to have a happy ending. "We're free!" he Twittered. "Nice men from Thyssen freed us. Paramount Club had champagne for us at the bottom. I'm allergic, but nice thought x." Next time Fry, who was yesterday giving a talk at the Apple store on London's Regent Street, will presumably take the stairs. Just not to the 26th floor, though.

THAT! is the problem I am having

At the moment I am torn between Myleen Klass, Beautiful and very, very talented, and Carol Vorderman a bit closer to my generation & very bright.

Me and my wife. Noone else.

I'd like to be stuck in an elevator with someone rich who needs custom furniture with loads of marquetry and carving.

I've always known you to be a man of startling intellect, Moejoe!

My answer:

Taylor and Marc. If the world's going to come to an end, it may as well be whilst I'm otherwise inconvenienced.

There would be no intellect present, I doubt I'd be able to do much more than drool and mumble inchorently if I was faced with a prolonged period alone in an enclosed space with the beauty shown below

hmmm... pillsbury dough boy or the Michelin man...
bc, best case scenario: I'd have a funny story to tell...
Worst case scenario: I can land on something mushy...

ps for all who does now know who I am talking about..

Michelin man

PDB

EDIT: OP: Do they count... do consider them alive? oh the dilemma....

My first thought was "my ebook reader" which probably says an awful lot about me.

But TBH Gordon Brown. I really would like a chance to discuss the state of the UK and how "from a lay persons perspective" we could do better.

Damn elections making me all political.

Felicia Day would fulfil both lecher/interest answers as a gamer and general geek I suspect we would get on well
