I personally don't see it in the slightest 😭

YABU - he is definitely the sexiest man in the world

YANBU - it should've been someone else in the public eye, who i will let you know about

Ok in his still pictures, but extremely average when talking. Don't like any of the past winners either, though I will concede Brad Bitt is (was) extraordinarily good-looking. Never found him sexy though. Where did all the hot guys go?! Very definitely don't get the Tom Hardy thing 😕

I've just remembered - John Bethnal. I love his kind of rough looking, imperfect, masculine face.

Well I have thought he is bloody gorgeous for years even back to the Broadchurch days, and seeing him in a play this year he is even nicer in real life (and comes across as a really genuine guy in any interview I have seen)

Considering he was in the biggest film of last year where you couldn’t escape the media coverage, plus in one of Netflix biggest shows of the last 5 years I am surprised at the “never heard of him” comments

Ive just googled to find out what he's been in. Ive never seen Broadchurch as we don't have a tv licence so can't watch BBC. I hate period dramas so wouldn't watch the Netflix series. And was his big film Jurassic World Rebirth? Ive not seen any ads either way.

I've never heard of him and don't recognise him. He's a bit too 'elfin-featured' for my liking.
Sexiest man alive? I'm struggling to think of anyone current.
"Fight Club"-era Brad Pitt, or pre-steroid-abuse-Tom Hardy would do it for me, but neither now.

OK, well that didn't last long. His eyes got a bit creepy when I was faced with the google images bar. Funny how HRT libido can come and go so fast.

I used to fancy Stephen Mangan on my own hormones though, so maybe not caring too much about this sort if thing is a blessing in disguise.

Not for me

It's a toss up between Channing Tatum in The Vow, or Chris Hemsworth in,,,,,well, anything! ❤

blankcanvas3 · 04/11/2025 10:11

I think he’s gorgeous! It should have been Pedro Pascal though, but apparantly he refuses it every year

Ewwww, nooooooo

Oh, he's gay anyway, sorry any ladies who did fancy him!

I don't think anyone was actually expecting to be in with a chance.

We've come a long way since boy bands weren't allowed to go out with girl bands you mean? Ah. I already feel old when I look at these guy's ages, let alone realise I haven't paid attention to this stuff for 20 years!

I agree with the OP that Riz Ahmed is my new habit. I might just have to stalk his internet thingies a bit.

JHound · 04/11/2025 11:39

He is quite sexy.

He also puts paid to the lie that gay men won’t be believable playing straight characters.

The older I've got the more I find Jeremy Clarkson attractive.

I will never get that old 😂

I vote for Jensen Ackles, he gets hotter as he ages 🥵

I second this!

I have actually no idea who he was, so I'd hope we could do a bit better than this as an entire nation?

Totally agree. Especially if he was in his Witcher gear🤭

LarryIsMyRomanEmpire · 04/11/2025 11:31

I'd say Harry Styles, but I saw JB in a play earlier this year and he's very pretty 😍

ClimbingMountChocolate · 04/11/2025 11:21

I had to Google him but yes he’s very sexy too, and even more so in The Witcher! He should just make that his look. 🤣

Show quote history

I agree. Weirdly I didn't like him much as superman but the Witcher just shows how sexy he really is 😍

DonaldJohnTrump · 04/11/2025 11:27

Weeelll, that's bigly bizarrrre. I'm not there!

You can't trust these survey thingies.

A beautiful man.

No idea who the guy in the OP is!

Happyhousehappyheart · 04/11/2025 11:22

No. Weak chin

I can't believe I have just googled "good looking British men" and gone, meh!
Idris Elba - but he's been the star for years, how have we got no one else and why do they all look the same?

Alex Pettyfer was the only one who I thought looked normal and not as commercially "manufactured" as the others. Could imagine watching him playing rugby.

Devilsmommy · 04/11/2025 11:18

BauhausOfEliott · 04/11/2025 11:16

I adore Cavill. There is literally nothing I would not let that man do to me.
