Anyone with a solid ear for an awesome tune. Anyone who is a barrel of laughs, and enjoys a good old knees-up. Anyone who can reach the top of the mash-up ladder without chundering hard. Anyone who can make me see something in a new, exciting light. Anyone genuine. I would name a load of celebrities, but I reckon meeting them would be a complete disappointment, and I believe that the fabulous, glittering aura surrounding them, would be destroyed by reality.

Neighbours!!! I cannot explain how much I love this programme!! Friends - I could probably sit down for the rest of my life and JUST watch Friends. How depressing. Room 101 - Witty host and witty guests, which makes quality viewing. Mighty Boosh - love it, and fancy Noel Fielding in it.
There are many books I adore, but my favourite is 'The Picture of Dorian Gray' by Oscar Wilde. The man is a genius AND a dandy!
