Husband and I insult each other by saying "you're the Hugh" when one of us is sucking the fun out of a situation so YABU!

His ex wife recently sold a story in the papers saying just how completely stingey with cash and boring he is.

If it's any consolation, when I was about 12/13 I had the BIGGEST crush ever on his then comedy partner Steve Punt. I used to write fan letters to him telling him he was gorgeous and funny. He wrote back to me a few times and I still have a signed photo of him somewhere.

I was odd.

Hugh Dennis - weirdly yes.

Russell Howard - annoying precocious 7 year old.

I think Russell Howard would jizz too quickly. He'd be disappointing!

YANBU - there is something about Hugh Dennis.

And I love Russell Howard - such a cute kid. So does DD-12.

I like that Chris Addison. I don't know why. Him and Mark Watson.

And Marcus Bridgstock.

Chris Addison, yes. None of the rest of 'em though.

I agree with Marcus Brigstock. He reminds me of DH.

What is it with Chris Addison? Skinny, transparent, freakishly hairy and yet.. I don't know, there's something.

YANBU, I saw him in a live version of Punt & Denis a few months ago in a very small venue which was great.

turkey - Russell Howard would probably remark upon that too - "hey look (leap to side) I jizzed too quickly"

Hug Dennis however - would it be too weird to say that as he is a history teacher in Outnumbered it has may have crossed my mind that he'd be CRB checked and therefore acceptable around my children?

I'm glad I am not alone! I've fancied Hugh Denis for years ever since I saw him put on a German accent in a sketch - very weird I know. Although I read the interview with his ex wife saying he was boring, horses for courses I guess.

Russell Howard is a babe and not a weird crush at all!

I met Hugh Dennis. He is very nice and seemed quite patient while I was wittering on ...

Don't blush squeaky. I want to touch his bald head for some weird reason.

Hugh Dennis is mine mine mine.
Even waaaayyy before MTW and Outnumbered.
He used to be in The Mary Whitehouse Experience with Steve Punt,Daniel Baddiel and Frank Skinner.

DH and I went to see Punt & Dennis Live. I wanted one of their life sized posters.Dh bought me a Magnum.
A flippin Magnum

He said on TV his wife kept her pregnancy tests when she POAS. So have I (my DCs are 11.6 and 9).

See already we have a connection

Favourite character was 'Milky Milky 'man. Creepy!

So YANBU to think he is quite sexy but YABU to have naughty thoughts.
Step away from the Hugh, OscarLove Grin

I would. And Marcus. He'd have to get rid of the beard though.

Do I beat Lordoftheflies that I saw both Punt and Dennis AND Baddiel and Newman (not Frank Skinner!) when they were doing their respective tours at the height of the Mary Whitehouse Experience?

I have a huuuuge crush on Russell Howard Grin He's lovely...

But Hugh... Hmm eh, what now?

MissTFied · 22/07/2011 22:28

YABU, but each to their own.

He lives in a village not far from me. Saw him at a fete once.

Lordoftheflies - Frank Skinner wasn't in The Mary Whitehouse Experience. How could you miss out the only handsome one - Rob Newman?!

Is Hugh the boring middleclass rhymes with merchant banker out of Outmumbled, surely the most overrated programme apart from Miraculous or Michael wingeback Mcdonald? YABU
