Take the 'a' and 'actor' bit off your title and it'd be more accurate.

YANBU!

MilkNoSugarAndAShotofWhisky · 03/02/2012 21:46

I loved him in Dr who

And regardless of his acting ability, I'd very happily have sex with him

Alot

The man's an absolute weapon. I have to turn over the TV when he's on. he spoiled my One Show this evening.

ZuzuandZara · 03/02/2012 21:50

He's scarily orange.

Ambrosius · 03/02/2012 21:50

Lol I saw a couple of minutes of him on the one show, he seemed very snippy at the suggestion of being 'interested' in Robert Deniro!

YANBU but i love him when being interviewed etc, good guy :)

he was frighteningly waxy and orange in the last (abysmal) series of torchwood

edwinbear · 03/02/2012 21:51

He's an even worse singer.

Ambrosius · 03/02/2012 21:52

Grin Agentzigzag!

He's very nice to look at (though I didn't see any of the waxy orange version of him in Torchwood), I think that's what gets him his parts

ooh er, his parts Blush

JagrsMullet · 03/02/2012 22:18

YANBU!

To be fair, I think his character in Hustle was meant to be a bit of a caricature. Never seen him in anything else though.

I agree he's a terrible actor, he has a rather nice smile though.

normaleggy · 03/02/2012 22:38

YANBU but he somehow seems too nice to hate, even though I really want to.

Sparklingbrook · 03/02/2012 22:38

He's on Chris Moyles Quiz Night right now. Very orange. what an arse.

marshmallowpies · 03/02/2012 22:40

He's got that David Cameron ham-face thing going on, except in his case ham that's been left under a sun bed too long. Shiny hammy piggy face and hammy acting to go with it.

normaleggy · 03/02/2012 22:53

I hate Chris Moyles. Not relevant to the op but always worth mentioning.

EsmeWeatherwax · 03/02/2012 22:55

He was funny on Never Mind The Buzzcocks...Acting, not so much.

susiedaisy · 03/02/2012 22:57

Can't stand the manAngry

cabbageandbeans · 03/02/2012 23:03

He is awful (acting, singing & Judging) and I can't understand why the BBC is so in love with the man. Always seems to be on my television. It is truly upsetting to have to watch someone who is quite SO in love with themselves.

cabbageandbeans · 03/02/2012 23:04

Nice one Maryz

saladsandwich · 03/02/2012 23:06

i don't like his acting but i think he is very good looking, he seems just a nice guy too
