Which “not hot” people do you fancy?

As a corollary to a thread asking which hot people you don't fancy...

The litmus test here is that we're talking about people who, if you mentioned over coffee that you fancied them, your friends would wrinkle their noses and say, "Oh, God - really? Ew. No, no no - I can't see the attraction at all."

But to be fair, I think they are all, especially Mayall (WOOF!), Atkinson & Barrie were considered handsome men in their day.

Sorry, I completely butchered the tenses there Wine

Kier Starmer

He is Helen Fielding's inspiration for Mark Darcy after all...!

Jools Holland
Simon Jack
Bob Mortimer
Craig Charles (as Lister)
RA as Blackadder

Yes to Bob Mortimer. Young Bob was FIT though so not sure he counts

@NippyWoowoo Yes, loved him in Naked and Harry Potter.

@WidowTwanki Ian Blackford 🤣🤣🤣

Richard Herring. Don’t normally find men shorter than me attractive.

Peter Mullin who played Michael in Mum...
I saw him many years ago in a drama called This Little Life and thought he was gorgeous then... A friend at the time said he looked like a plumber!!! 😏

Elderflower14 · 04/12/2022 21:39

Mullin
Mullan

They first imagine that comes to mine whenever I hear David Thewlis. Any takers?

No , but look at him here .....

Adrian Dunbar.. Supt Hastings from LOD

I’m not having this. Adrian Dunbar is hot.

President Zelensky.

Oh God, yes.

Yy to Woody Harelson and Willem Dafoe.

I also seem to have a thing for posh Tory boys even though I've never voted for them. I draw the line at JRM though.

Me too. I married one. (I probably should have name changed for that).
also
James D’Arcy
Dave Allen ( I love a dry sense of humour. And the drink in his hand. And the suits)

WidowTwanki · 04/12/2022 22:05

Krishnan Guru-Murthy

Mick Lynch

Lycanthropology · 04/12/2022 22:32

Not sure what some of these men are doing on here. Kristofer Hivju is a (Norse) god. And Rik Mayall... what an ugly bastard 🙄

I find Robert Peston strangely attractive.

I find Robert Peston strangely attractive.

But he looks like Dennis Nilsen

RobertaFirmino · 05/12/2022 02:17

Bradley Walsh, definitely! It's the way he creases up with laughter. Also, Gary Lineker and Jurgen Klopp. President Zelenskyy is totally hot though, handsome AND brave!

the80sweregreat · 05/12/2022 04:42

I'm a fan of Mick Lynch too
