Okay, here's the deal:

You can bring one person back from the dead.
You can kill any living person on the planet.

The entire world would be informed of your decisions.

Go for it.

Do you pick a lost family member making yourself happy but risk being seen as slightly selfish? Or do you pick someone the entire world would like to see back? Someone in power? An entertainer - Elvis, or John Lennon perhaps? This person would be restored in the state they were in when they died, so they wouldn't have aged at all.

And who would you kill? Saddam Hussein? George Bush? Justin Timberlake? Remember, just because you deem someone 'evil' doesn't mean everyone else does. Removing Saddam Hussein could cause an international uproar. Killing George Bush would no doubt cause a few raised eyebrows. Timberlake's demise would ensure you never ever got laid ever again. Perhaps not as easy as it sounds.

So - one resurrected, one put in the ground.

Who is it to be?

Don't bother, I'd use mine to kill her again straight after.

Hmmmm....bring back Ghandi to prove that non-violent public disobediance can bring down governments.

Kill Hugh Grant

I think pb mentioned Jesus already, but I would definitly bring him back. If nothing else, to see what all the fuss was about, but also so he could read the bible and tell me how grossly misrepresented he has been.

Getting rid of people is harder to choose. I don't think I really have the right to end someones life, but as this is mearly hypothetical and not actually going to happen, I would probably pick somebody like Harold Shipman. If I could get rid of him *before* he killed so many people then all the better.

I'd bring back...Socrates (working on the assumption that Goatboy would bring back Bill Hicks...)

I'd kill...Ann Coulter; I mean really, do people actually take her seriously?!

Bring back - I would sell my ability to do this to the highest bidder

Kill - likewise.

I'd Bring back Jimmy Saville (I know he's not dead yet, but it can't be long now).


I'd kill Elvis (just no nobody has any more lingering doubts)

Laurel, you fools!

and I agree with Linda Barker. Bint.

Yes. I would. Violent, yes. But they protected their people. If a man raped a woman, they would kill him.

Resurrect: Loral and Hardy (they are funny)
Kill: Lynder Barker (annoying bimbo thats always on telly)
