Does anyone else really fancy Steve Coogan?

He is just so funny and so good looking.

I just saw his Kate Bush medley from when he was much younger - has he ever been truly celebrated for how good looking he is?

“From the Oasthouse.” Funniest bit. I had to lean in a wall to stop myself from weeing.

Oh! Phew! I had taken that one personally!

Let’s see if this works re Pauline’s hen night - m.youtube.com/watch?v=DLHWzj5dhTg&pp=0gcJCfwAo7VqN5tD

And of the pubs he's listed, he's tweaked the names of a couple, but I definitely know of the Falcon, Roebuck, Albion, (Dog and) Partridge, Gay Gordon, Neville's Wine Bar (although in reality it was called Jacques Wine Bar), the Cow's Head (really the Old Boar's Head) and the (Dusty) Miller. Most have shut down but always makes me smile when she lists them off.

Spill the beans. Who were the nice ones? Who was in the really creepy category?

The nicest one by far was David Mitchell! Mathew Baynton was also lovely.

It was a disappointing experience to realise how nakedly transactional and self-obsessed famous performers and writers can be, but on the other hand relationships with important people are how they stay employed!

I didn’t get the pubs right! Utterly brilliant.

I have been wondering …

do you think that we can rehabilitate his reputation?

Hear me out:

we each host an evening with Steve Coogan in settings where he has failed to thrive in the past and do this in different venues around the country.

We could surround him with young women and he could make a point of not promising that he will make them famous.

We could reunite him with Courtney Love for healthy small talk in the open.

Sell him a toaster.

That sort of thing. Let him be the best version of himself and then write about it on here so that word gets out that he’s actually quite nice.

Can I do the Sex evening?

I'll let you know how filthy he actually is or if it's all just rumour. If he's crap and cries, I'll feed that back too, but try to teach him some stuff so he's not as crap for the next woman.

I haven't had it for a while, and I'd love a big blowout. Then I'll return to celibacy, hopefully satisfied for the next 7 years.

TooBigForMyBoots · 29/08/2025 19:32

It would have to be a Thursday.

Pennyloper · 29/08/2025 19:58

I don't fancy Steve Coogan but he's utterly brilliant, fascinating and smart and love his work. But he has kinks , re. The Trip and enjoying sex with women who don't enjoy it, funny not funny ahaaaaaa.

What I take away from this thread is the difference between filth and kinks. Nobody is saying ‘kinks’, you see.

They are saying ‘filth’. Which seems lavatorial to me. Is that what it is?

A chocolate mousse is all very nice

but to put it on a person is …

I definitely would.

TraceyDeacy · 30/08/2025 07:52

Has he settled down now? Is he with Melanie Sykes?

Filth to me… just looks like he turns everything sexual and is happy to back it up. Some guys do sexual banter, flirt but would never do anything and wouldn’t have much to offer if they did. I just feel as if he really, really likes sex.

TraceyDeacy · 30/08/2025 09:00

He calls a spade a spade @PermanentTemporary

Or, more likely, a big tool.

Why would you want to help a misogynistic twonk?! Let him dissolve into the background like all middle aged, white, over the hill men should!

Nah.

It'll be a one time only thing. Either hes so good I'll be done for the next 7 years. Or he'll be shite and put me off for a few more years.

Either way, it the easiest way to scratch this itch, not any kind of romance.🤷‍♀️

SingtotheCat · 01/09/2025 23:07

He just morphs into Alan Partridge for me.
I get that sexy Steve would crack your arse and then flip you over for a good seeing to, like a terrible post-modern incarnation of Bob from “Rita, Sue and Bob too, but then he would morph into Alan, his head hovering above you with a grimace of discomfort laced with glad disbelief at his luck. And with scotch egg between his teeth.
