Have you ever had a crush on a fictional character?

[WomenHour]

I would say Joey on Friends

Benedict Cumberbatch’s Sherlock
Nick from New Girl
Daniel Craig’s James Bond
There’s probably more

Oh yes @The80sweregreat he was my first crush too!!

Dexter Morgan from Dexter, Damon Salvatore, Deacon Frost.

So many of us loved Spike. I always avoid seeing James Marsters doing interviews as I don’t want to spoil my idea of Spike.

Mac from Green Wing
Chandler from Friends
Fitz from Cracker
Sherlock from Sherlock

The Green Arrow (and tbh Stephen Amell IRL too. He’s just so lovely)

Damon Salvatore

Dexter Morgan, Damon Salvatore, Deacon Frost.

Nick from New Girl

Ooh, good one.

Columbo- I love an intelligent but modest man

Almost forgot:
Malcolm Tucker from The Thick of It.

And at least a couple of the Dr Whos.

Most recently, Alexander lemkov from 'Eurovision'.

Sportacus from Lazytown ☺

@InTheCludgie me too although I think it's more to do with Rory McCann 🥰😁

Louis from the John Connelly novels about charlie Parker.

Totally unreasonable because

He's fictional
He's gay
I like his partner Angel
He murders people.

But the heart wants what the heart wants

Maximus whatever his name was in Gladiator. Which is weird because I find Russell Crowe deeply unattractive.

Also the character Ranger from the Stephanie Plum book series.

Ooh User. I feel that, very much. I quite fancy Parker myself (I obviously like them extra troubled)

Robin of Sherwood aka Michael Praed.
I absolutely adored him.
Also Jason from Battle of the Planets when I was very wee. But he was animated..

Jack in While You Were Sleeping!

Snape.

Rhett Butler / Gone with the wind

Douglas from Cabin Pressure

Colonel Brandon (the Alan Rickman version)
Leofric in The Last Kingdom
Gene Hunt*
Ted Hastings*

*The characters, not the actors in anything else

John Carter..ER(I love him soooooo much...I had to tell DP yonks ago).
Mr Rochester.
Darcy ( in the book) not so much the Colin Firth version).

Robert Downey Jr’s character in Ally McBeal. Not in anything else.
