- So let's say we choose one window seat and one on the aisle next to it. Would it still possible to talk (over die aisle) ?
- If we go for the companion seat, can I still see a window, or is my view completly blocked by the wall ?

thanks in advance for any advise
If you have a look at some of the cabin pictures online (Google "A380 first class British Airways) you'll see that you will have to lean forward a bit to chat across the aisle.

However, there is a little buddy seat (which is basically the ottoman) opposite the main seat, where you can invite your companion to dine with you or just chat face to face. I don't believe it would be comfortable for long periods but it's a nice feature to have for a couple.
