As in, not an obvious choice.

Mine is Reece Shearsmith from League of Gentlemen, specifically as Benjamin and particularly as Ross. There's something about the glasses and the bossiness/ air of authority Blush he has a really cute smile too.

@SimonJT

Aladdin, as in the cartoon version.

Fox version of Robin Hood.

Link, specifically in breath of the wild.

Mandalorian, but in his suit, don’t fancy the actor.

Big yes to the fox version of Robin Hood!

I've never watched The Mandalorian but I do recall that, for a man with a bucket on his head, the original Boba Fett was quite sexy.

If I watch too much Red Dwarf I develop a thing for Rimmer.

GordonsAlive85 · 08/02/2021 17:03

Philip Glenister as Gene Hunt Blush

yumscrumfatbum · 08/02/2021 17:04

I'm rather keen on Dr Dubrow from Botched. It's his smirky smile that does it!

Judashascomeintosomemoney · 08/02/2021 17:05

Tchéky Karyo and Raymond Blanc

@Icantreachthepretzels oh I get the Rimmer one Grin

I have a thoroughly inexplicable crush on DI Slack from the old Joan Hickson Miss Marple dramas Blush I can only think I go for men who look like they need a good ruffling/crumpling...

Rainbowandscarlett · 08/02/2021 17:21

Rodney trotter from only fools and horses

George Gently 🙂 as he is now not when he was in the Professionals 😬

MumofSpud · 08/02/2021 18:23

Gordon Strachan - Scottish Footballer - actually it's his birthday tomorrow! For my 21st birthday (nearly 30 years ago) my friends got me a signed photo (I think they pretended I had some disease so he would do one Shock)

MumofSpud · 08/02/2021 18:24

Can I have Adrian Dunbar as well?!

@Bloodypunkrockers

I'm all excited now as I've never met anyone who watched Coldcase eitherGrin. John Finn has done a couple of Irish dramas too (he speaks Irish).

Bluewavescrashing · 08/02/2021 18:37

Fox version of Robin Hood 😂

I bet Reece Shearsmith has quite a fan club actually. He's extremely clever and funny. Sometimes I have dreams about him bossing me about Blush

Terry O'Quinn aka John Locke from Lost
