To ask who you'd choose if you were ordered by royal decree to have a torrid affair?

[squoosh]

Risk of being thrown in the Tower/put in the stocks and all that malarkey if you refuse.

Today I think I'd go for Ralph Fiennes. Look how pretty he is. Yes he's all tortured and angsty and probably ponders endlessly on his 'craft' (yawwwn) but he's just so alluring.

No doubt he'd be a tad high maintenance in the long run but for an enforced torrid affair I think he'd do very nicely indeed. Plus he's probably into all manner of eye popping sexual shenanigans. And let's face it, what's the point of a torrid affair without some eye poppery. Am I right?

David gandy!

Nathan Fillion? Or Malcolm Reynolds?

Kit Harrington but only as Jon Snow, all dark and brody and stuff [swoon]
Reginald D Hunter - his voice alone is pure filth, it would be so torrid.

Nooooo forty i used to know him (many many many many years ago). It's just plain wrong!

I had to google Nathan Fillion. I was picturing Nathan Lane. Bit different.

David Gandy looks too much like Dean Gafney's alter ego (and spookily they have the same initials...)

He DOES look like Dean Gaffney.

That's very upsetting.

Dean Gaffney probably isn't upset with the comparison though.

Do you ever see them together?

Norman Reedus ..if we met we'd fall in love I just know it

Harrison Ford circa 1980 (am I allowed to go back in time?) If so, also Lewis Collins from the same time.

If I am forced to stay in modern times, then Hugh Jackman.

I thought that too

and Bradley Cooper's older twin is Barry Manilow

I change my mind all the time, but right here right now I'd tag team with these two.

Noooooo not a Bradley/Barry mash up - that's ruined everything!

I've never been too fussed about Tom Hiddleston, but heard him put on a texan accent in (skip to about 13:40) and practically melted at the sound of his voice. So, him, but only with that accent.

Tom Hiddleston's neck is wider than his head. For that reason alone it's a 'nay'.

oh dear god

FrozenAteMyDaughter

Oh yeah, Harrison Ford "back in the day"

I recently rewatched the original Star Wars trilogy (in anticipation of the new one, of course!) and wow, I'd forgotten how hot Harrison Ford was in the 70's/80's!

How can you not love Tom Hiddlestone after watching .

Delayed gratification.

Sorry Lucas

but once seen can't be unseen

.

Another thing about Hiddleston is that he seems so needy. When he was on Alan Carr's show he was showing off with the dancing, when he was on Graham Norton he was showing off with the impressions.

Stop!

I think my their nature, actors can be a bit needy and attention seeking. I once spent an incredibly boring evening with models. "She got that contract and I didn't. Is she prettier than me?" Give it a rest, beautiful people. It makes them horribly unattractive. Give me someone funny, sexy and very confident any day. Which may explain why Jeremy Paxman makes my list but don't tell anyone.

*by their nature...

Bet I'm the only one to say Pete Doherty. I so would though.
