Gosh there has been lots of excitement on MN in the last day or so at the news that he has split with his partner. MNers practically scratching each others eyes out to have first claim on him! Wink Which is all very lovely but....

I just don't see it. And I don't know why - I love beards, I love actors, I love talented men, I appreciate a slightly outlandish dress sense. But he does absolutely nothing for me. Not in his current state, not in his younger days - nada. Not even as Captain Jack Sparrow (see earlier beard reference)

Anyone else feel the same?

Another vote for "manly"!

janelikesjam · 21/06/2012 10:54

YANBU atall. I also never liked the skinny look, James Dean, Brad Pitt, and other incarnations of the same. Give me a real man, anyday, please Blush

JenFraggle · 21/06/2012 11:20

Mmm Russell Howard is lovely and yes, the glasses make him even lovlier but I do have a glasses fetish I'm 30

SPsFanjoHarboursDeadCats · 21/06/2012 11:27

Jen come join us on the embarrassing and weird crush thread. Mr.Howard I'd quite popular

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 21/06/2012 11:36

Ruby, I would totally do Snoop Dogg as well.

Weller and Astley, though ... you're on your own there Grin

waterlego6064 · 21/06/2012 11:37

LOL @ 'Orlando Bloom is a milquetoast' Hahahahahahahaha!

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 21/06/2012 17:09

I'm only speaking the truth Grin

SP I don't have any embarrassing or weird crushes Steve McDonald from Corrie thank you very much [hoiks bosom]

izzyizin · 21/06/2012 18:03

I used to have a thing about Philip Middlemiss who played Des? in Corrie Blush

freerangeeggs · 21/06/2012 18:20

No to JD. He's not manly enough for me. I need a MAN, a MAN with chunky thighs and a beard and other manly accoutrements.

Currently slobbering over Chris Hemsworth as Thor

Oh my

JenFraggle · 21/06/2012 18:25

He was tasty though Izzy

RoxyRobin · 21/06/2012 19:39

Speaking of manly, I used to lust over Kevin Sorbo in his Hercules role - half-man, half-god, what's not to drool at?

Thing is, that series was so crap I used to have to turn the sound down or it ruined my concentration.

Also had to turn the sound down on the Pierce Brosnan Bonds - good to look at, but you never knew when he was going to come out with one of those squirmily smutty double-entendres.

Have crossed him off my list anyway (I'm sure he's inconsolable) since Rosamund Pike revealed he was a crap kisser (dog's breath? slobbery? slurpy sounds? She didn't elaborate). When you see their intimate scene she really doesn't look too happy.

pigletmania · 21/06/2012 19:42

yANBU but YABU about the gorgeous Brad Pitt thoug

izzyizin · 21/06/2012 19:48

I'm relieved glad you think so too, Jen, although I suspect we're in a minority of two.

There's something about cheeky chappy Geordies.. and bandanas on Axl Rose types... and tough guys with lisps

NettleTea · 21/06/2012 21:42

Ok OK so someone mentioned his ENGLISH HOUSE
wheres that then, eh, eh???????
(thinking of leaving small children 'home alone' whilst camping outside said mansion......)
Johnny Depp has ALWAYS been no1. always.

tho recently have been having a few thoughts over that Vampirey fellow from the first series' of Being Human, and lovely LOVELY Douglas Booth who was in Great Expectations over Christmas (tho I think I Literally could be old enough to be his mother)

Slight wierd ones would be Tom from the 1st 2 series of Spooks, and more recently Ive developed a bit of a thing for Milner, from Foyles war.........

izzyizin · 21/06/2012 21:59

Norfolk, Nettle. I won't reveal the exact location as I'm heading that way now intending to liaise with panda with a view to our pitching my pop-up tent under a certain slide in a certain park and sharing my night vision binoculars while we toss coins to determine who's going to get first dibs on him.

NettleTea · 21/06/2012 22:08

Damn.
Unlikely to get top secret information and arrive before you, as am right down the bottom of the South East....
Though I have got a bell tent, which might be more enticing????
Invite him for a bit of glamping??

He seems a naughty boy, perhaps he could entertain us all. I will bring my self inflating mats and pirate bunting just in case

izzyizin · 21/06/2012 22:13

I knew it. Next thing it'll be mumsnet coach tours to Burnham Market. O sod it; another foot in mouth moment. I've blown it now, haven't I?

O well, the more the merrier and I can't wait to see what your pirate bunting looks like, Nettle, to say nothing of those very comfortable-sounding self-inflating mats.

As JD is currently reputed to be in New Mexico we might be camping it up for some considerable time. Anyone got a primus stove and a portaloo?

TandB · 21/06/2012 22:31

He must have more than one English house then as he lives near me!

TandB · 21/06/2012 22:31

Sorry - meant to say, and I'm not in Norfolk!

TandB · 21/06/2012 22:32

But we can have a camping trip to my local farm shop instead if anyone is interested?

izzyizin · 21/06/2012 22:38

Maybe he was visting a fellow star sleb, panda? Does your local farm shop do a nice line in tasty sausages?

NettleTea · 21/06/2012 22:48

we have sausages and burgers from our farm... And Ive just had a delivery of Forest school equipment so we could go feral for sometime without problem....(playpark roadkill anyone??? - Im going for the quirky being a bit of a draw for him.....)
