Who's your secret ( and surprising crush ? )

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 ?

No secret and maybe not surprising….. Dan Roan (BBC sports commentator) ❤️

I am a knee wobbly fan of Ed Harris.

And IRL my former boss from a good 15 years ago who is a saturnine austere F Murray Abraham-esque Judge in the Crown court.

Until i realised he has no issue with dipping his wick into the much younger starry eyed blonde bouncing 23 year old trainee and intern pool.

Monica Galetti is scrumptious 😋

ObtuseMoose · 16/11/2024 17:43

Bungle, there's just something about his voice that gets me going.

amoreoamicizia · 16/11/2024 17:44

Lord Lucan, I've always had a thing for him 😳 (the current one, I mean). The older one was acceptable too, though 😬

I like that Donald Trump.
He's got my vote.
Seems like a great guy to me.

I was going to say the greatest as a joke but then I remembered it's Mumsnet

I have a strange thing for Steve Buscemi

Doitrightnow · 16/11/2024 17:50

Jeremy Paxman
Peter Falk as Columbo.

Chocoholicnightmare · 16/11/2024 17:51

Jamie Dornan. Luckily, my DP looks a bit like him 😀

afaloren · 16/11/2024 17:52

Danny Dyer ;( for years now.

MissMoan · 16/11/2024 18:04

Phil Spencer!

Welshcakes28 · 16/11/2024 18:04

Jamie Dornan
Paul Mescal
Gary Oldman

amoreoamicizia · 16/11/2024 18:21

I had to Google him but Jamie Dornan isn't exactly surprising, is he?

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 16/11/2024 18:26

Steve Pemberton - he gets better with age , love LOG and Inside No9 . He has the most amazing eyes .
In drama like Happy Valley or Whitechapel , he is such a versatile actor .

Rainbow321 · 16/11/2024 18:27

Thmssngvwlsrnd · 16/11/2024 17:26

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

@Thmssngvwlsrnd

Yes it triggered my post , seeing him with her reminded me he comes across as lovely .

I’ll have Reece Shearsmith then!

Mebebecat · 16/11/2024 18:31

Larry Lamb!

SemmaLina · 16/11/2024 19:46

George Michael still has my heart , but Danny Dyer as Fred Fred in Rivals surprised me in the nicest way

KnopkaPixie · 16/11/2024 19:50

Please bear in mind that this is the crazy crush thread.

Morrissey.
Michael Stipe.

Sexually ambiguous pop star fantasy.

Prince William of Gloucester.
JFK Jr.

Perhaps there should be a seperate section called, 'Members of prominent dynasties who died in plane crashes.'

The Klitchko brothers.
Georges St Pierre.

I like boxers.

Cillian Murphy.
Father Ted.

This is the mercurial Irishman category.

If I ever find an Irish singer songwriting pansexual boxer from a dynastic family who died in a plane crash. Well. That would be hitting the jackpot, wouldn't it?

I am confident that I've just articulated the exact archetype that we all secretly go for.

Goodnight.

I wrote a list of my celebrity crushes in a diary when I was 16. Looking at it now, it seems that my perfect man was (a) gay and (b) dead.

I’m more realistic these days!

amoreoamicizia · 16/11/2024 20:29

I have a like! There is another Lucan fan out there! Apart from his wife 😁

GiddyRobin · 16/11/2024 20:32

Mine has been mentioned!

Surprising because physically he's not my type; Reece Shearsmith. I usually like the tall brooding Alan Rickman, Jeremy Brett sorts. But Reece Shearsmith? Yeah, I'd be his wife, Dave. (Well maybe not, DH might not like that too much. 😆)

I love him as Jeremy Goode! 😍
