Clever people you find sexy

[StormyDaniels]

They can be good looking too, but that’s not the main reason you find them attractive. Or they have a good voice on the radio and you have no idea what they look like.

I have gone off him a bit now, but mine used to be Ian Hislop.

No shaming!

Brian Cox

Victoria Coren. Charlie Brooker. That is how they are spelled. Believe it or not, it's not unusual to fancy people because they are clever. I think that it is odd that you think that it is odd.

Liz Bonnin is gorgeous. I've seen her in real life.

Alexander Armstrong

Most of the above.

And Neil Oliver - coast

2cats yes now I just find him a bit pompous sadly.

Elizabeth I never said I found it odd.

Mark Carney!!!
How have none of you mentioned Mark Carney yet!!!

Only works for men though as society fails to truly appreciate a clever and attractive woman. Look at Carol Vordeman for example.

@RogueV True story: that I fancied Alan Davies was for many years one of the two most terrible secrets about myself that I harboured. I thought this crush the most embarrassing thing ever and you are the first person I have encountered who thinks Johnathan Creek is sexy.

Ah, youth

Also yy Victora C-M not so much because she is clever but for the sense of humour and the presenting skills. And the clothes, I like her clothes.

Dr Noel Fitzpatrick, the Supervet!!

Dara O’Brien
Richard Osman

Richard Osman

Another one for Victoria Coren-Mitchell, David Mitchell and Richard Ayoade.

I also quite liked Hugh Laurie back in his Blackadder / Fry and Laurie days, not sure about now.

Don't get me started on Carol Vorderman. She has a THIRD in Engineering. She went to Oxford, and got a third. Words fail me.

But of course, she's a mathematical genius...

No, MorningsEleven, you can't have Chris Packham all to yourself. You'll have to share nicely.

Robert Peston for me too, especially now his hair is a bit longer.

I can't believe no one has mentioned Miles Jupp yet

Ben Miller - both smart and funny.

Benedict Cumberbatch

Brian Cox

Brian Cox
Dr Chris Van Tullican (can't spell but saw him live last we and sigh) not Xand though wierdly

I've got quite a thing for a few of those academics on BBC4.

Michael Scott (especially him)
Jago Cooper
Alistair Sooke

I think I could spend a lot of time talking to Andrew Graham-Dixon, too.

The overgrown-scrubbed-schoolboy look normally does nothing for me, but I watched Ray Mears weave a basket once and was completely blindsided by how attractive I suddenly found him. Competence can be amazingly sexy.

Ooh yes, Miles Jupp. Jeremy Hardy too. I basically want to shag half the news quiz.

“Benedict Cumberbatch”

Is he clever?...
