..to have a wildly inappropriate famous person crush?

[Stangirl]

...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?

Marlinspike i have a thing for George Osborne as well and Alastair Campbell.

bupcakes me too. was slightly perturbed that he used to go out with Edith Bowman, but his girlfriend looks nice.

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 am weeping with laughter at the poster who had a childhood crush on Mike Baldwin

Kieran O'Brien, started when I first watch Gruey.

Haven't seen 9 Songs though!

neil oliver....bit odd i know.although im sure his wife loves him.
i hate long hair on men, and his teeth aren't good, but in a weird way that kinda adds to it.
it's the voice...swoon...

It's got to be Bill Nighy!

Can I throw a Tony Blair into the mix for consideration?

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...

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.

. Cute!

my name is Beaker and i rather fancy Rik Mayall

and Hugh Lawrie

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.

Haven't read all of this thread but I am with you all on Matt Smith but also have a ffew others

Go on then ...

I find Jarvis Cocker wildly attractive.

David Essex, and
hmmm and
yum

I will stop there!

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.

Gabriel Byre is another - those dark eyes
