One of the female astronauts from the 1960s who was jibbed by the US government and wasn't allowed to do the actual missions.
Richard Feynman: every dinner party needs a hyperactive, genius, bongo drum-playing, lock-picking wild man

Henry, Henry, Henry: I've adored him for many years. He can sit right opposite me so I can stare at him all night

Diana: No specific reason, really. Her life and the way she did and didn't handle it fascinate me

Mr Ed: I've always had a soft spot for a talking Palomino

Astronaut: I read a fascinating story about a group of female aviators who were trained for space missions but John Glenn et al were selected over them because the government thought that women weren't tough enough for space (even though they blitzed the guys at all the tests). Really interesting lives they've had.
