mine is Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. I'm sure there are more but he's probably top of that list! 🙈

Liam Gallagher - but surely that’s a normal one?! 😉

@castlecutie I thought you’d appreciate that google haha! I highly recommend watching Alias. For ya know.. research..

Stephen Mangan. He’s like a sexy goat, it’s so confusing.

Imaysnapandfart · 22/07/2019 10:48

I used to fancy Paul Merton.

And the funny guy with the big ears - Ryan Stiles.

Must be a comedy thing! Grin

Is it bad that many of these seem perfectly acceptable to me?!

Mine was always Alan Rickman even when I was younger (mid thirties now). Was devastated when he died.

Line from Swashbuckle

Guess what we've been watching Hmm

The dad from Molly and Mack

Yes. And also - to my eternal shame, because he's only 24 - Mack.

peachgreen · 22/07/2019 15:26

Oh, and Tony Robinson.

For all the Rory Stewart fans.

Who is your 'shouldn't, but would'?
Crunchymum · 22/07/2019 15:32

I'd like to have a beer with Justin Fletcher - couldn't quite bring myself to shag him!

My globally delayed 18 mo is a massive fan and he has grown on me!

myusernamewastakenbyme · 22/07/2019 15:34

Keith Allen and Larry Lamb....

Candyfloff · 22/07/2019 16:04

@Crunchymum That too!

Oddly, the Mr Tumble/Something Special 'version' of him doesn't give me the flutters as much as the Justin's House version.
But him and Robert, Blush

Patrick Stewart from way back in the days of Jean Luc!

Saw him being interviewed once think it was on Graham Norton and there was a femal actress on too. Oh my what a flirt! He clearly loves women. Hubba hubba!

AlexaAmbidextra · 22/07/2019 16:15

Boris Becker. I see someone else upthread has said him too. And I thought it was just me. 😂

Willow2017 · 22/07/2019 16:20

Ben Willbond!!
Theres nothing 'shouldnt' about him!

AlexaAmbidextra · 22/07/2019 16:23

Bill Clinton, twenty years ago. That voice!

Candyfloff · 22/07/2019 16:35

Oooo Joe Biden too

Littlepigsmig · 22/07/2019 16:38

I feel bad for saying Ben Willbond is a 'shouldn't' I really think it's because I'm watching kids tv and lusting after him.

Also, if I ever say him in RL I get weird looks, but I seem to have found my people here!

He was lush in Power Monkeys, wears a suit well

Redshoesandtheblues · 22/07/2019 17:49

I have no shouldn't....just would never get the chance!

Sneezeandooops · 22/07/2019 18:29

Bill Nighy, used to have a major crush on Brian Conley when I was younger
