It's not just his Adonis like face, but his enthusiasm for everything! If any of you have been watching his bbc show on Greece, that scene with the Syrian refugees had me in bits. He manages to connect with everyone he interviews, and I loved watching him keep a straight face when interviewing a 79 year fisherman wearing a tshirt emblazoned with marijuana leaves.

DP is entirely sympathetic to my crush, in fact I think he rather shares it...

I haven't seen any of his programmes or heard of him before this thread, but a quick Google has shown me that YANBU!

I love him too, I like the way he shows the beauty but talks about the society and the politics.

YADNBU - he's lovely. The tears about the Syrian refugees last week had me bawling.

Yanbu. Pretty sure he has a portrait in his attic somewhere aging though... otherwise how?

YANBU at all. I loved the Greece programme. He has a fantastic ability to empathise with the people he interviews while still staying objective. And he is cute.

I'd never heard of him, but google shows me a very beautiful specimen!

I met him once. He is equally lovely in real life and a very nice chap.

I first saw him when he made a series about the 'Stans'(Uzbekistan etc)and decided then that he was a)drop dead gorgeous and b)made really interesting travel documentaries . Each new series just confirms both of these facts
