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 just thought of another. The actor who plays Nish but he is beautiful!

Lindjam · 17/11/2024 13:19

I have met David Olusoga. He is absolutely charming and lovely 🥰

Crikeyalmighty · 17/11/2024 13:36

High Laurie, Dominic west, Hugh Grant - not really suprising though

On the more suprising ones I like Alistair Campbell and James o brien - both are fiercely intelligent and go getters and I like their style.

I love Dominic West not sure if it was his character I loved in the televised series of les miserables but he is so funny in the ads he is in . A fantastic actor.

Sigh ... I love his looks, soft calming voice and intelligence. I guess I can add charming and lovely to the lust.

Xyz1234567 · 17/11/2024 13:47

Aagh, Freudian slip there! I meant to say list.

I've got a crush on the tiger from The Tiger that Came to Tea.
Very sexy eyes, very polite but with an underlying menace.
And he likes a beer.

Crikeyalmighty · 17/11/2024 14:42

@kerstina he lives not that far away and seems a very nice man who does a lot for local charity's

Hulahoopalaver · 17/11/2024 15:50

Anton du Beke. Never thought I'd have reason to envy Ann Widdicombe🥴.

SprinkleOfSunak · 17/11/2024 16:35

I forgot to add Wynne Evans to the list - the Go Compare opera singer.

kpopNC · 17/11/2024 16:38

Mingyu AKA Kim Min-Gyu. A secret crush, given I'm old enough to be his mother.

Who's  your secret ( and surprising  crush ? )
Words · 17/11/2024 17:07

Louis Theroux
Rory Stuart
Al Campbell
Marcus Wareing.Those eyes! He needs to trim his hair at the back though

Justleaveitblankthen · 17/11/2024 17:41

Noel Gallagher.

My fantasy involves a wild assignation during which Man City score the winning goal.
We are in VERY close proximity to the pitch 😎

Justleaveitblankthen · 17/11/2024 17:42

Oh, and Professor Brian Cox 😁

JohnTheRevelator · 17/11/2024 18:14

I think Douglas Henshall is lovely.

Itoldyousoo · 17/11/2024 18:19

So many of these are understandable -
hamza ✅
Jamie ✅
Yelensky ✅

Some unusual Martin money saving 😳

Unusual and weird would be Putin !

Mine would be

Ben stiller
Benicio del toro
Jeffrey Dean Morgan
Javier Bardem 😂😂😂 seeing a pattern here

Itoldyousoo · 17/11/2024 18:21

ToBeOrNotToBee · 17/11/2024 12:48

Ralph Fiennes. Even in his 60s he does it for me.
I rewatched The English Patient recently and my god, I was practically salivating.

Oh yes!

Crikeyalmighty · 17/11/2024 18:29

@Words ah I forgot Louis Theroux - one of mine too

Crikeyalmighty · 17/11/2024 18:30

@Words actually good taste in general- I like all those although Rory is tiny

Doyouknowdanieltiger · 17/11/2024 18:35

Yes to Rowan Atkinson in Black adder

Greg Davies and Blindboy (Irish bloke with the bag on his head)

Rainbow321 · 17/11/2024 18:36

I guess the less no surprising isn't because they are good looking people , but because they are far removed from the sort of person the person usually goes for , hence my post Hamza .
I also agree with a few already mentioned .
So many men ....... so little time ! Sigh .

Has anyone mentioned any women even if you are heterosexual.

Im thinking Suranne Jones just loved her in Gentleman Jack

Words · 17/11/2024 18:46

@Crikeyalmighty For me stature is somewhat irrelevant. It's more about intelligence. And humour.
I couldn't be with a stupid yet beautiful idiot.

Rainbow321 · 17/11/2024 18:52

@StandingSideBySide

Yes as a straight women I've occasionally seen female celebs I reckon I could break my lesbian virginity for !
I've also had a few women I've come across in real life I've wondered about . Maybe I'm a undiscovered bi !
