...on Matt Smith. He's just my type - funny looking, tall and highly talented. I am however 42 and pregnant. I nearly had an attack of the vapours with him in Christopher and his Kind last night. It all started when he announced Orbital at Glastonbury last year and was really cool.

Do you have inappropriate crushes?

Chunkymunkey, Bupcakes and Marlinspike, thanks for that, I now feel so much better admitting I've had a decades long crush on Jack Straw. Thank God he's unlikely to ever become Doctor Who or I'd be a ruined woman :)

Itchywool, I can see where you're coming from with jack Straw - can I throw a Tony Blair into the mix for consideration?

oh, yes, and Inspector Grim form 'The Thin Blue Line' and Gene Hunt of course, and Matthew Parris. And Hugo Rifkind. And occasionally Robert Crampton. And Mark Austin.

i hate long hair on men, and his teeth aren't good, but in a weird way that kinda adds to it.

It's got to be Bill Nighy!

Eeeeeewwwww! That is just wrong on so many levels, surely?

Oooh, first mention of Nighy ? congrats! He's quite a popular one, I think.

I've got an annoying one too at the moment. "Can't get you out of my head" sort of kind, much younger bloke, makes me feel like a stalking perverted old woman and fourteen year old girl all at the same time. Not exactly self-respect enhancing!! And unfortunately he's on Twitter. So sexy though.

Tell us who it is, then!

Not even sure I can disclose under an alias. The TV show he was on came and went ages ago...

BringBackGoingForGold · 24/03/2011 16:06

Such a tease! Would it help if I disclosed mine?

  • Aidan Turner (inappropriate because I'm considerably a bit older than him)


  • Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen


  • Philip Seymour Hoffman

The sensible one I will admit to is Hugo Rifkind as well.

my name is Beaker and i rather fancy Rik Mayall









and Hugh Lawrie

BringBackGoingForGold · 24/03/2011 16:19

NOT unreasonable. I wouldn't do Mayall any more, but circa Grim Tales, oh yes.
Also Hugh Laurie, believe me, is v common on other 'crush' MN threads. You are definitely not alone.

BBL1, as do lots of people! Evenstar, I say, hot lady crushes! I don't know if that's inappropriate, but it's a refreshing change from all the blokes ...

Nearest I get to lady lurve is a minor girlcrush on Rebecca Hall.
