To fancy Robert Carlyle

Huge fan of Once Upon A Time. I'm 26, and I fancy Mr Gold. Even when he's all Rumpelstiltskin Blush
There is something wrong with me right?!
Just something about that scaly skin just does it for me Grin

To fancy Robert Carlyle

He's quite nice looking
However his height let's him down.

LilacSpunkMonkey · 10/07/2016 18:07

He's gorgeous. I completely appreciate him as Mr Gold, not so much as Rumplestiltskin! DD is 14 and all about Captain Hook so whenever we see the Disney version I get to say 'there's your boyfriend'. She does not get the Carlyle love at all.

He's most gorgeous in The Full Month, surely? Cheeky twinkle in his eye, very loveable, yes please!

Excellent mycats

AnotherUsernameBitesTheDust · 10/07/2016 18:10

Oh I loved him in Hamish Macbeth, and his cute doggy too.

I haven't seen anything he's been in since, I might have to have a look.

Cocolepew · 10/07/2016 18:22

I love him, I used to swoon over Hamish McBeth.
Dont think the scaley gold skin adds anything tbh.

AgentCooper · 10/07/2016 18:24

My dopey sister walked out in front of his car in the west end of Glasgow. Nobody was hurt, thankfully, but it was very amusing Grin

pissedglitter · 10/07/2016 18:28

Oh when he says "Dearie" my bits quiver!!
Love him as Mr Gold

LumpySpacedPrincess · 10/07/2016 19:50

Oh yes, only when he's in full on Rumple mode though.

That1950sMum · 10/07/2016 19:53

He's absolutely gorgeous.

Thanks for the pics!

Robert Carlyle is the best thing bout OUAT. Out acts the others by a country mile. And yes, I'd agree, there is something about Mr Gold.

switswoo81 · 10/07/2016 20:19

He's bloody brilliant in ouat. Only started watching it on Netflix recently. Don't like the skin as rumple but as mr gold there is a certain something. Took 3 series of lusting over Captain Hook before I found out he was Irish.

lljkk · 10/07/2016 20:46

I have 2 types & skinny small is one of them, sigh. Bobby Carlyle is ruddy perfect.

Voddy4 · 10/07/2016 20:55

OK love this thread! Currently binge watching once upon a time on Netflix whilst feeding new baby!! I'm 100% a hook girl however, Robert carlyle/rumple is a total secret crush!!!

stopgap · 10/07/2016 21:00

Fancied him since his Trainspotting days. I like wiry and tough, and don't care at all about height.

FrancesNiadova · 10/07/2016 21:11

That poor man hasn't been the same since the death of Wee Jock! Just look at what happened to sweet, innocent Hamish after Wee Jock died! ConfusedBlush

Yukduck · 10/07/2016 21:14

Women love a man with character and he has it in bucketloads. He was very lovable in Hamish Macbeth and sexy in Full Monty. He played a disturbed football supporter (can't remember the name of the programme but think he murdered someone) but he was superb in character.
Defo fanciable.
Just about ok for me as I am 5ft 4 and a half!

'Nah, Nah - he was on the rigs!' Smile

Some people might have regarded it as a close run thing between him (in shorts) and 'Wild Thing' but no contest for me. Gorgeous.

MistyMeena · 10/07/2016 21:19

YANBU. Gorgeous in The Full Monty

honeyandmarmitesandwiches · 10/07/2016 21:21

I've fancied him since I was about 12 and saw him in The Full Monty, still do now and I'm almost 30 Grin

He's just got something about him, he's all wiry and masculine but with a delicate quality as well somehow, can't quite put it into words! Charisma, a bit of a twinkle, real character.

cozietoesie · 10/07/2016 21:24

You just know he's going to bring you tea and toast the next morning. Smile

(After one heck of a night before. Grin)

HoundoftheBaskervilles · 10/07/2016 21:27

I was an extra in the final club scene in The Fully Monty, I have seen ALL of Robert Carlyle...

ellenanora5 · 10/07/2016 21:30

Was that Cracker you're thinking of Yukduck, he was brilliant in that, I love him but have never seen Once Upon A Time.

cupofrooibos · 10/07/2016 21:33

Oh he's gorgeous, I even have a soft spot for him as psychopathic Begbie Blush
