Who is your unusual celeb crush?

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.

Simon Bird (Will from the inbetweeners) or Mark Labbett

Paul Rudd is my celebrity crush and is definitely not an unusual choice Grin

When Peter Capaldi walked as the new Dr my heart swooned and still does look at these beauties I have hundreds.

Tommy Scott from 90s band Space. No one ever agreed with me on this even back then. So he’s mine.

Sean Wallace from the Chase and also the new guy Darragh, ooh I’d be pushed to choose.

Anthony Head as Uther Pendragon

Mentioned up thread a few times Ian Mcshane but I preferred him in Lovejoy .

John Nettles in anything ( pref wearing nothing Blush )

And Rupert Graves m.imdb.com/name/nm0001291/mediaviewer/rm2986453761/

I’m going to agree with Gilou, Rimmer, and Roger Allam’s voice, which I assume means Douglas from Cabin Pressure rather than the narrator of Sarah and Duck. I think my 13 year old has a slight crush on Douglas from Cabin Pressure.
I used to fancy William Shatner, at a time when my cohort was fancying Jason Donovan and Philip Schofield.

SnowyBranches · 08/02/2021 22:56

I mean I know Allam does Douglas and Sarah and Duck, I just think the former is a slightly more well rounded character...

Captain Scarlet

Bob Mortimer

Peter Kay

To the PP who said Jacob Reece Mogg - you're not right.

Next slide please 😂😂

Love it

Rupert Graves is not an unusual crush, he’s objectively bloody gorgeous!

Bloodypunkrockers · 09/02/2021 01:23

Some of these are mainstream fanciable. Nothing unusual at all you odd people. Paul Rudd and Rupert Graves indeed

Now Matt Berry. Not conventionally attractive but he looks as if he's pure filth Blush

TalesTheCat · 09/02/2021 01:25

[quote AlCalavicci]Only got to the third post on this thread for one of my crushes to be mentioned
@TalesTheCat Mark Harmon is bloody handsome esp as Gibbs , the control , confidence, power , dry humour and protectiveness he show to his team is (>>> sits down cos knees have gone to jelly

OnceUponAMidnightBeery · 09/02/2021 01:50

Either most of these are not unusual crushes or I am peri-meno and just lusting after anything in trousers. Or out of trousers, preferably Blush

I’ll second Ross Kemp (especially as Grant, gods help me), Sebastian Bach from Skid Row in his younger days, Lindsey Buckingham, and the actor who played Eugene Victor Tombs in the X-Files... Doug??Adams?? Obviously as himself, not the character, even I’m not that desperate 😂😂😂

Most of mine are far too obvious 😳

StarlightLady · 09/02/2021 03:46

I’m not sure she qualifies for “unusual” but Sunetra Sarker would be very welcome to stay for breakfast. 🌈

Whatisgoingdown · 09/02/2021 04:10

John Tarode, he's so lovely to Lisa on their Saturday cooking program

catinbootsx · 09/02/2021 04:24

Oh yes, Matt Berry. I totally would.
TechnoDino · 09/02/2021 10:45

Yy to Paul Rudd, obviously!

Has anybody said Rami Malek yet?

Just me then BlushGrin

muststopdrinking · 09/02/2021 11:12

Noel Fielding.

HexWitch · 09/02/2021 12:46

Tbf Paul Rudd is unusual for me because I never really thought he was fanciable, he just crept up on me lately.

Not irl unfortunately Sad
