If you were stuck in a hospital room for 6 months and could chose one person, past or present, other than husband/wife, relative or in-law, to be in the bed next to you – who would it be?

Stephen Fry – British National Treasure and very interesting bloke. He’d have more than enough stuff to keep me sane for 6 months.

If you could meet one person in the Sim – who would it be?
