Watching Mock The Week (a new one for once) casually and really Hugh is so attractive, much more so than say 10 years ago

Any other HD weirdos out there?!

His face is shaped like a piece of toast. Grin

Jupitar · 09/07/2017 23:08

Hugh's lovely but Marcus Brigstocke is better 😍

sweetbabboo · 09/07/2017 23:10

Greg Davies is just a fine manly man! He'd definitely laugh me into bed.

Hugh Dennis is nice enough I suppose. Im a Dylan Moran girl though ....Wink

Ceto · 09/07/2017 23:21

Greg Davies was one of DS's teachers. They used to take the piss out of the weird tall teacher with ambitions to get onto the comedy circuit.

chips4teaplease · 09/07/2017 23:22

No.

GrandDesespoir · 09/07/2017 23:24

I've had a bit of a crush on him since seeing him in Fleabag. He was really rather good.

squoosh · 09/07/2017 23:37

I was just about to post about the weird Greg Davis love that lots of MN peeps have.........but I see they're already walking among us.

With regards to Hugh Dennis, I never knew he inspired such lust! I think he looks a bit like Beaker from the Muppets. Only more human and less ginger.

Enidblyton1 · 09/07/2017 23:45

Absolutely not! I find him v unattractive. I used to see him at the station most mornings.

Alexander Armstrong on the other hand Grin

squoosh · 09/07/2017 23:51

But Alexander Armstrong refers to himself as Xaaaaaander and has a toe curling side career in crooning. I'm still scarred from hearing his version of Golden Brown.

MonkeyPieMama · 10/07/2017 02:54

Hugh has got more attractive as he's hot older. His facial hair has helped hugely too imo. I fancy Greg Davies big time. I'm early 30s. Maybe I have a problem but I think he's yum.

Bubblesagain · 10/07/2017 03:25

Bob Mortimer ans Greg Davies are my comedian crushes, hugh though, no no, he always reminds me of a cross between a lib dem leader and a vicar Grin

vikingprincess81 · 10/07/2017 03:45

Ugh, it's a despicable Daily Fail link (I'm so sorry!) but this came up a few months back when I was stalking googling Mr D. I do think he's rather dishy now with his facial hair.

It's all about Alexander Armstrong chez phoenix - loveliest, nicest man in the world, with an arse that should be declared a site of outstanding natural beauty. Wouldn't kick Hugh out of bed though, nor yet Greg Davies. Nor Richard Osman, natch. Have you seen RO's hands? Huge, and beautiful. They could do things to a girl.

Auldspinster · 10/07/2017 05:24

Call me shallow but I'm a Rob Newman woman - sat about 3ft from him at a book launch and it took all my self control not to jump him. Beautiful olive skin.

lidoshuffle · 10/07/2017 06:10

I've seen HD pushing a trolley in Waitrose.

Wheelycote · 10/07/2017 06:26

Which one off mock the week is Hugh?

WindyWednesday · 10/07/2017 07:25

Yes, I loved watching him on the punt and Dennis show. So funny. He is aging rather well.

StiffyByng · 10/07/2017 07:45

The Alexander Armstrong singing for the grandmas career is heartbreaking. It ruins him.

Luckily the also deeply wouldable Richard Osman clearly takes the piss out of it backstage so Pointless is still top crush telly.

Walnutwhipaddict · 10/07/2017 09:30

I wonder if he could be persuaded to step up to the plate now that Tim Farron's leaving?? Wink

It is a toss up between the toast or the beaker comment to win this thread IMHO Grin

Quite agree re Aa and the singing...

Hugh Dennis?

He with the horrible dark under eye shadows? Looks permanently ill? That Hugh Dennis? Nooooo. Also not funny, and overbearing on MTW.

Can't see it myself (in case that wasn't obvious! Grin )

MarilynWhirlwindRocks · 10/07/2017 09:48

Shots,

Are you Steve Punt? Grin

Totally agree. I luffed him until I saw the advert for his album. I howled with laughter when it came on the telly, funniest and naffest thing ever.

Me too. It was so cringeworthy I was embarrassed for him, although apparently he's supposed to be very good. Not my cup of tea at all. And I always think the interraction between him and Richard Osman (not fanciable or funny at all) is cringe too. Like they're trying to be funny but are so crap at ad-libbing that they mess it up every time. It's painful to watch.
