I am watching legends on Netflix, I dont know if the heat (just central scotland but, boy im feeling it 🥵) or the 2 glasses of red wine is making me think this, but has steve coogan got nice looking in his older years? 😬😬😬. Think i might need to lay off the wine when its hot! 🤣🤣😬

Stephen Mangan now we're talking.

Always comes across as funny and charming on Gogglebox

Paul Calf
Pauline Calf
Or both ?

"Bleach ma hair and wash ma pants. Or wash ma hair and bleach ma pants"

Go on, you know you would .

I don’t fancy him because of the Paul Calf thing. He also went to my school (several years above me) so Paul Calf is less of a comedy and more of a documentary or travelogue of my local area. His family are absolutely lovely.

SC is starring in the new White Lotus series which is filming in Cannes now. I hope Laura Dern eats him alive.

Oh no. He always just plays a version of himself. Very annoying.

I was watching How Are You last night and I thought his eyes looked different, sort of beady and darker and piercing. I wondered if he'd got coloured contacts in.

It’s because he had a blepharoplasty where they get rid of your eye bags!

Ah! I suppose that might change the shape and make the iris stand out more.

Tunnocksmallow · 25/06/2026 23:26

I’ve had a major crush on him since I was a teen in the 90’s. It was his smile and floppy, curly hair sigh and the fact he was just incredibly funny and a bit of a bad boy behind the nerd characters.

But yes, he is getting better with age.

ComedyGuns · 25/06/2026 23:33

Gawd. It’s the heat…

I’ve always fancied the arse off him.

Same 🤷🏻‍♀️😄

ConstantlyFuriosa · 26/06/2026 01:16

Actually, I don’t know for a fact he had a Bleph procedure but he did talk about it in The Trip and has certainly been tweaked.

AImportantMermaid · 26/06/2026 01:24

He always gets cited as a massive arse in those ‘Name a celebrity who’s a massive arse’ threads. Also, can’t get past the Partridge vibes. Can you imagine him slipping it in and then saying, ‘AHA’?

HauntedBungalow · 26/06/2026 01:34

Apparently he was so dirty that Courtney Love was shocked.

Yes. I would ride him like a wild stallion on the shore.

I offer this again as evidence. I’ve put it under ‘sensitive image’ but it’s a still from Alan Partridge and was shown on the bbc pre watershed I believe so it’s not that rude! Just funny.

I find mark heeps quite nice 😬😬😬🤫 dont tell anyone. 😳

Wasn’t he in Green Wing?
If so then 😱
But I did have a mahoosive crush on both Julian Hind-wotsit and Stephen Mangan. Can’t believe that’s over 20 years ago…!
Steve Coogan had a huge coke habit back in the day
( but I don’t reckon he’d be boring in bed - far from it..)

ConstantlyFuriosa · 26/06/2026 01:57

Yes they were all in Green Wing. Also had a crush on Julian Rhind Tut!

MoaningAboutTheWeather · 26/06/2026 02:02

That’s his name!!! Couldn’t think of it at all 😵‍💫
Hes not my usual type at all, far too delcate and fine-boned… I like my blokes to be much more manly, but he was lovely in Green Wing. Never hear of him now?

ConstantlyFuriosa · 26/06/2026 02:04

You see him pop up in things from time to time. He played an explorer in Black Books but obviously that was also years ago. Not my usual type either but he had something sexy about him!

Atleastitsnotsunstroke · 26/06/2026 02:37

He tried to hit on my friend in her teens in the 90s so he's a sleaze to me.

Well he's no Hugh Laurie.
Does Legends get better? We dumped after the first two episodes as we thought it was quite ordinary.
