Never have I ever fancied this person, but this particular appearance gives me the fanny gallops

Paul McCartney. I've never ever had even a flutter, in fact he's the opposite of what I find attractive, but cripes in this video he really gives me the gallops, particularly at 39 seconds.

What are your never have I evers?

@70isaLimitNotaTarget

David Thewlis in Prime Suspect 3 as the evil pimp . He drove an old classic car and wore rather gimpy skintight leathers (and was a deeply unpleasant character )
Ooof, yes. And as Johnny in Mike Leigh’s Naked. Lost, sardonic, abusive, never looks clean………mmmmmmm.
InaccurateDream · 20/02/2022 15:08

Agree Cavill only hot in the Witcher. Don’t like clean shiny version of him.

Paul is marvellous in Get Back. Mixture of beard and peak talent.

Sam Heughan (spelled that wrong I’m sure) in Outlander is another one. Not keen on him at all normally, but as Jamie who will do anything for Claire - sure!

TheMarzipanDildo · 20/02/2022 15:09

Agreed OP. And I’m generally more of a George gal.

@Silverswirl

David Tennant in Casanova. It was his breakthrough before dr who when not many knew who he was and it was just like wow- who the hell is this?

Hot priest omg yes.

Yes! I have loved him ever since (and in many other things) but this was the first thing I saw him in...
CatMotherQueen · 20/02/2022 15:11

@Mildmanneredmum

Andrew Scott, but as Moriarty. Clever, a Bad Lad and that accent. My knickers burst into flames.
The advert that appears for me under your post works very well... ;-)

George Harrison gets my blood pumping between my legs but I've fancied him for years. I can understand the Paul thing though.

ChameFangeNail · 20/02/2022 15:12

Agree with Peter Capaldi in The Thick of It.

I’ll add Daniel Craig but only as James Bond.

And Jason Bateman but only as Marty Byrde in Ozark and nothing else.

ImInStealthMode · 20/02/2022 15:12

I think it's something about Frank N Furter, rather than the actor. I've seen a few people play him and they've always been surprisingly hot!

Yes! I've had deeply, deeply inappropriate crush on Tim Curry as Frank N Furter since I was too young to be watching that film (but also a bit as Rooster in Annie).

Not so much in Home Alone, or IT Grin

Moaningturtle · 20/02/2022 15:12

@BluebellsGreenbells

Snape, Lupin and Black….yes yes yes*

Are we allowed to add Bellatrix? Even though I’m straight?

That would be acceptable
Chisandbiscuits · 20/02/2022 15:13

@DramaAlpaca

Russell Crowe in Gladiator and nothing else before or since.
This!
Momijin · 20/02/2022 15:14

Haha I really fancy blackadder. It's his wit though

NoWordForFluffy · 20/02/2022 15:14

Brad Pitt in Ocean's 11. And that's it...not even when the character was reprised! 🤷‍♀️

Moaningturtle · 20/02/2022 15:14

I will also add Martin Freeman but only in The Office and Mackenzie Crook but only in The Detectorists.

Poetrypatty · 20/02/2022 15:16

David Gilmour is my older man crush so I like him at all ages. Such an attractive man.

Aspergirl77 · 20/02/2022 15:16

Always thought Tom Holland was sweet/cute in a boy next door way. Then I saw him do Rihanna’s ‘Umbrella’ on Lip Sync Battle - I know he’s in drag but the athleticism, the dancing/grinding swoons. I’m old enough to be his mum Blush

ThePlumVan · 20/02/2022 15:17

@SisterRuth not as Jonny Cash ??

When he stands up to his father ‘Where were you..?’ Love him Grin

Yes!!!
RickRude · 20/02/2022 15:18

Josh Lucas in Sweet Home Alabama. I’ve watched him in other stuff and just don’t get it. Also Josh Holloway in Lost. Again, watched him in other things and I don’t really fancy him as much. I think it’s the southern American accents have a thing for!

Onlyforcake · 20/02/2022 15:19

I quite fancied T Curry in the Worst Witch and Ricky Horror when I was probably a bit too young to be thinking such things. I think it's that knowing eyebrow raise. He was also the devil in Legend and again, inappropriate interest in a non human look there. Generally I don't find men particularly appealing.

BadHairDayExpert · 20/02/2022 15:20

David Bedella is the best Frank-n-Furter

Missing the point of the thread completely but what shocks me (now) is how bloody young they all were that day. Paul was only 26 Shock
GertrudePerkinsPaperyThing · 20/02/2022 15:21

I still don't understand how Blackadder 2 is Mr Bean. I mean, there's acting and there's that

I agree! I’m so glad it’s not just me!

Bellalastrasse · 20/02/2022 15:21

@poetrypatty

Thing is he looks so ‘unrestricted?’ in the 70s, wild and free spirited. In the 80s he looks like an insurance salesman or house shares in Spain type.

GiantKitten · 20/02/2022 15:23

@raspberryjamchicken

Colin Firth in the wet shirt.

Orlando Bloom in the blonde wig as Legolas.

Colin Firth smouldering across the top of the piano for me!
