Not interested in Orlando Bloom at all unless he’s Legolas.
Also have a weird non sexual crush on Malcom Tucker.

Who’s your weirdest TV/film character crush?

Lister from red we were.

*red dwarf

Benadryl Cucumberbench only as Sherlock. Never himself.
Alan Rickman as Sheriff of Nottingham, Col Brandon or in Love actually
Laurence Fox as DS Hathaway in Lewis.
Hugh Laurie not as House though
John C McGinley as Dr Cox in Scrubs

Definitely Malcolm Tucker. He is so deliciously potty mouthed. But not Peter Capaldi.

Oh yes, rimmer ... I watched that episode a few months back and thought ‘how did I not notice this at the time..?!?’

eyycarumba · 07/08/2018 09:56

Might out me as this very unusual Blush but Robert Morse in Mad Men aka the very old boss! Goes way beyond daddy issues....

Another one for Legolas but not Orlando, and Eomer

I didn’t really get Sean Bean until he was Odysseus in Troy, now I get him in everything! Not sure that counts.

gabsdot · 07/08/2018 10:19

Mine is Rupert Grint as Ron Weasley. I think he's gorgeous and so nice and tall.

pointythings · 07/08/2018 10:20

Monroe and Sean Renard from Grimm, Hades from Once Upon a Time, defo Captain Picard but also Tuvok from Voyager. And Avon from Blake's 7 .

RayRayBidet · 07/08/2018 10:35

@eyycarumba
Not getting the Bert Cooper love but definitely Roger Stirling

theressomethingaboutmarie · 07/08/2018 10:37

The Hound - every damn day and twice on Sundays! Dario Naaharis would get some too.

theressomethingaboutmarie · 07/08/2018 10:38

YY to posters who have mentioned Oded Fehr and John C McGinley - yum!

parrotonmyshoulder · 07/08/2018 10:39

Sterling Archer...

And he’s a cartoon!

llangennith · 07/08/2018 10:39

Legolas was gorgeous. Very disappointed when I saw how different Orlando Bloom was in real life🙈

hearmyvoice · 07/08/2018 10:41

Agree with Thomas Shelby but never Cillian Murphy.
Also Michael Fassbender as Macbeth, no other Macbeth and no other MF character will do.

JamieVardysHavingAParty · 07/08/2018 10:42

Also Arnold Rimmer from Red Dwarf. But only as Arnold Rimmer- couldn't fancy Chris Barrie as Gordon Brittas in The Brittas Empire.

Hoppinggreen · 07/08/2018 10:42

Sportacus

HellonHeels · 07/08/2018 10:50

Has anyone mentioned Snape yet?

Agree with Malcolm Tucker, too.

hearmyvoice · 07/08/2018 11:02

Actually also Arthur Shelby. And maybe john too.

RayRayBidet · 07/08/2018 11:32

@theressomethingaboutmarie
The hound..... Oh yes

echt · 07/08/2018 11:33

Ultimate TV crush by, er..a TV character:

RoseWhiteTips · 07/08/2018 11:38

Hathaway in Lewis.

Jaxhog · 07/08/2018 11:38

I'm with you on Legolas, and not Orlando Bloom. For many years I had a crush on Dukat in Start Trek Deep Space Nine. Yes, the grey cardassian with the arrogant deep voice. Until I saw the actor who plays him.

I can understand Legolas, since he looks a bit like my DH when we first got together (gaunt, strong, long blonde hair). But a grey alien? Very weird.

Jaxhog · 07/08/2018 11:40

Did someone mention Avon from Blake's Seven? Me too! But, why?

DarklyDreamingDexter · 07/08/2018 11:41

Legolas and Loki are hot to trot! Not so much the actors in real life!
