Celebrity wise - Or it won't be much fun

Not my usual type , but I really like the nature cameraman / Countryfile Celebrity Hamza Yassin . When he's on tv he comes across like a lovely gentle soul , and strangely his hair does something to me .
Totally different to my dh which I guess is the allure.
Who's yours ?

I have a thing for Marcus Wareing but it would only work out if he stopped being friends with Gregg.

Recently watched The Crown and loved Matt Smith as a young Prince Philip. But I was mesmerised by Johnny Lee Miller as John Major. Not a crush per se but there was just something about him. I love JLM though.

(Also thought the chap who played Tommy Lascelles in series 1 was very crush worthy!!)

Henry Cavill

Vito from Strictly (I'm meeting and greeting him next year on his tour)

We holidayed in the village where he lives in the Highlands this summer. He was out and about a lot, seemed friendly.

I used to have various celeb crushes all the time but they seem to have dried up now which is a shame because I enjoyed them :(
Weirdest one was probably Rowan Atkinson but ONLY as Elizabethan Blackadder.

Pedro Pascal, Skeet Ulrich and Charlie Stayt

Bill Skarsgard - no friends or family members find him attractive! I think they are nuts

Oh I get this 100% I think he's gorgeous. But quirky. Maybe it's because he plays odd characters.

Ray Winston, jack
Nicholson

@KatParr ooooh really! Glad someone agrees! That's true he hasn't had a romcom leading man type of role yet I guess... but him in the crow.... my goodness!

I like him better for NOT doing rom com actually. Much preferred a tortured soul/weirdo character 😉

Hugh Laurie.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 16/11/2024 17:18

Jarvis Cocker (when young and less straggly looking) - love those skinny hips. And that voice.

Wendolino · 16/11/2024 17:20

Sam Elliott- that voice......... 🥰😍🥰😍🥰😍

Hugh Laurie.

Yes please 😋

Kaleidoscopic101 · 16/11/2024 17:21

Thorin Oakenshield (Richard Armitage)

Magpiecomplex · 16/11/2024 17:23

In terms of surprising, Virgil Tracy from Thunderbirds. Both the puppet and the animated versions.

RubyMentor · 16/11/2024 17:24

The character Gene Hunt in the series Life on Mars 🙈

Ooh I completely agree with you about Hamza 😍Did you see him cooking with Mary Berry this week? He seems such a gentleman.

RedWinePoliticsAndHair · 16/11/2024 17:27

Jared Harris. Especially as King George in The Crown. He's funny looking but he is sexy. No denying it.

buybuysellsell · 16/11/2024 17:27

I never have crushes on celebrities but OMG Jack Lowden. He is 100% my type. Lucky Saoirse Ronan!

shellyleppard · 16/11/2024 17:29

Definitely guy Garvey from elbow.....i could hug him all day!!!! Hamza is also gorgeous.... just has a lovely personality ❤️😁

Xyz1234567 · 16/11/2024 17:30

I'm secretly rather keen on David Olusoga.

DilemmaDelilah · 16/11/2024 17:31

I like Dylan from Casualty, unfortunately, because my oncologist is very like him!

CaninesC · 16/11/2024 17:37

Sam Heughan currently but in a definitely unobtainable kind of way.

I've felt a greater attraction to the odd actor in the past, but I think then (if they were not a famous actor) they were more in my league somehow...and whilst a fantasy it was almost possible!

Sam Heughan is physical perfection - he seems like a great guy too!

Edited

Agree on JLM especially since watching Elementary! Thought he was Scottish before that (only seen him in Trainspotting about a million years ago)
