Also I met Luke Roberts from Holby City when I was 16 and thought I might actually swoon

Yes! Again for me the voice as well.

Except apparently he again smokes. Shame.

He’s smokin’ alright

ValerieVegan · 30/08/2026 11:00

Leo Woodall anyone? I’m old enough to be his granny 🙈

Oliver Tobias from my teenage years! But Paul Newman is perfect.

Jamie Dornan is a fine thing alright! Thanks for putting these pictures up because the photo of him in his jocks further back is an Occasion of Sin for me so I had to stop looking at it!
I have just developed a silly schoolgirl crush on Vasily Stepanov, who was in a Russian film called "Inhabited Island" back in 2008. Loads of women were and still are mad about him, he was just unreal!
He's stunning in the film but I think he was even more gorgeous as himself, with his natural hair colour.
He's gone through hell since the film, it's a heartbreaking story and yet he's still a lovely looking man IMO and he seems like a nice person too. I really hope life gets better for him, he's still young enough, bless him.

Just googled him. What a sad life. Looks like his last film was 2018?

Agreed.

Me, circa 1996: "Forgive me, but I think that's the most beautiful man I've ever seen."
DH <looks along to my left>: "That's Paul McGann".

I saw him once at the deli counter in our local Sainsbury's.

He was wearing an expensive looking dark wool winter coat and I could not take my eyes off of him.

Thank you Walrus!
Beautiful young and old 😍

If as someone was saying, we're about objectively beautiful men rather than necessarily hot ones, I'd have to say the singer Marilyn. I was VERY confused by him in the early 80s wearing make up and looking so pretty and getting his chest out which felt very rude if he was a lady which I thought he might be at the time.

Though looking at the pictures posted here of Bret Michaels and Sebastian Bach he's really not all that different from the poodle rock era looks of blonde hair and nipples ahoy

They were better in the old days, like Gregory Peck, Alain Delon and Montgomery Clift (upthread)

I came here to say Gregory Peck. He was a very beautiful man.

TomatoGlut · 30/08/2026 11:19

Showing my age here but John Nettles was devastating when he was young.

Uricon2 · 30/08/2026 11:20

Apparently Joanne Woodward watched Wire in the Blood or something and said of Robson Green "He looks like Paul when he was young".

ETA Now I know this, I can't unsee the resemblance!

Lalgarh · 30/08/2026 11:21

I would like to find out who this is in, oh yes, the latest Avon catalogue

Google lens hasn't brought up anything so far

Here’s Paul not wearing much

Eh? It's his shoulder and part of one bicep. Plus he's shaving, not pouting. I mean he looks great, but not wearing much is a stretch.

Brandon Skenlar in 1923… anyone?

Obviously a handsome guy with a great body. But a bit bland and generic imo.

keepincool · 30/08/2026 11:27

I'll bring Yōsuke Kubozuka to your attention. He was in the BBC drama Giri/Haji - which is worth a watch if you haven't seen it.

Richard Gere - Officer & a Gentleman...omg

Arsefart79 · 30/08/2026 11:28

Niche but Wes Bentley - 25+ years crush. Young Harrison Ford & Jeff Bridges (Jagged Edge) would also get it.
