I've never heard of him before today! Watched The East (brilliant film btw) and there he was all smouldering and beautiful. Seems he's done a lot though and is Alexa Chung's beau.
I can't share a photo as am on my Chromebook and it's too much of a faff to download pics old gimmer so if you don't know him please google, he's worth it swoon
Anyone else join me in my new found lust appreciation?

I highly recommend you get into True Blood then cos he's naked a LOT.

GinBunny · 21/07/2016 23:36

Yes True Blood is amazing!! I'm on season 2 and can't believe i missed it when it 1st aired.

I had a massive crush til I read he was mean to Lady Gaga about her weight. (He's in the Paparazzi vid.)

But oh yes. True Blood. Naked. Often.

There's one scene in the later series. You'll know when you get to it. Wowee. Literally speachless. That man is so well put together.

MissBeaHaving · 21/07/2016 23:40

Smouldering & beautiful indeed Op!

I will join you in appreciating his gorgeousness!

Omg my lead in a lot of erotic dreams. Eric the Viking be still my beating fanjo.

GinBunny · 21/07/2016 23:42

How do I watch it if it's not on Netflix, do I need to buy the box set? Oh god I feel so old asking that Blush
Do you think DH would buy it if I said I wanted to see Tarzan at the cinema?

Gin,** True Blood was on NowTv, they did have a trial package for a 1 month.

Monkey " be still my beating fanjo " indeed!!
Haha

MissBeaHaving · 21/07/2016 23:51

Hm... Not sure why that came out in bold or where the random star came from Confused

App issues again....

ladybird69 · 21/07/2016 23:56

Hands off he's mine. Lol I've had to re-buy my true blood DVDs as I've worn them out. He really is eye candy and of course the series is really good too Grin

GinBunny · 21/07/2016 23:58

Thanks Miss, will check NowTV out. And thanks for the pic - those eyes I'm far too old for this, last time I had a beating fanjo (thanks Monkey!) over a sleb was Richard Armitage in his speedos Grin

He is very lovely.

I have been watching Vikings on the History Channel. His brother Gustaf plays the shipbuilder Floki, who is coco loco. He was definitely not quite as blessed as Alexander in the beauty stakes, but he makes for compelling viewing in Vikings.

Alexander features heavily in Generation Kill, which is a 6-parter about the Gulf War written by the team that made The Wire. It is very good although, like The Wire, it takes a while to get your ear in with all the military lingo.

ConkersDontScareSpiders · 22/07/2016 00:10

Love the man. There's a scene in true blood where he's wearing jogging pants and flip flops. No one has ever made jogging pants and flip flops look that good.ever.

busyboysmum · 22/07/2016 00:11

He is gorgeous ☺however check him out in Zoolander - you will not recognize him. I loved him as Eric in True Blood.

LockedOutOfMN · 22/07/2016 00:14

I've fancied him since "An Education" and thought he would have made a great Christian Gray. Blush

ftw · 22/07/2016 00:23

Kerberos, I know just the scene you mean. I nearly mentioned it myself.

WanderingNotLost · 22/07/2016 11:25

I'd like him a lot more if he wasn't with Alexa Crazy Eyes Chung...

MiddleClassProblem · 22/07/2016 11:27

Eric always trumped Bill, especially when he saves Soooookie (Bill impression) on various occasions

GloriousGusset · 22/07/2016 13:43

Isn't he gay? I find it impossible to continue sleb crushes if I find out they're gay. My imagination clearly can't get over the hurdle that says 'he'd run a mile if you did that to him you know'.

He is lovely and tall though.

MiddleClassProblem · 22/07/2016 13:46

No he's with Alexa Chung

GloriousGusset · 22/07/2016 13:48

I'm pretty sure she's a beard.

He really is sex on legs as we used to say back in the day...
Can't wait for the new Tarzan movie.
He's also from a massively famous acting family. But none got the spot like he does... ahhhhhhh
