I watched I.T crowd with no hint of a crush but watching him on panel shows/Travel Man and giving interviews I seem to have a huge, teenage style, crush on him 😶

Anyone else?! Please don't let me be alone....

And that chin dimple

Haven’t seen him on telly but have a minor crush on him based on his incredibly dry reading of The Twits in my kids’ Roald Dahl CD collection Blush

I like him - his dry wit is fab - but not that way. Jon Richardson all the way for me!

I like Jon Richardson but he's more cute than hot to my taste. You have to love a man with a sense of humour though!

Oh yes he's lovely. I used to see him a lot where I live and he'd often be outside my house. One of the worst things about moving house....

Not cup of tea but I can see the attraction- smart, funny, perfect dry amusing putdowns for boorish oafs, seems nice.
(Please say he's nice DrDrereturns. He is one of those people that I would be sad and lose a bit of my faith in humanity and my own judgement if he turned out to be a shit).

I really need to move. It seems he is outside everyones door or at the local park. Here in the middle of the countryside we are lucky to get internet connection let alone actual, hot, free roaming celebs...

I hear ya

Also Louis Theroux.

I clearly have a "type"

StableGenius · 03/09/2018 23:21

YANBU, he is clearly a total sweetheart. Clever, funny and good-looking. What's not to like?

treaclesoda · 03/09/2018 23:24

I love him too.

My husband thought I was taking the piss when I said I liked him, but I'm deadly serious. Grin

FarrahMoan · 03/09/2018 23:26

I too have a soft spot for Richard

My DH takes the piss because I'm convinced Richard has a phobia about being touched, DH says it's all part of the act

I've been to the Horniman once - might be time to go again

He's the man of my dreams after Idris Elba. Funny, hot, self deprecating and intelligent.

Sadly the book did nothing for me though

Mach5 · 03/09/2018 23:34

His award acceptance speech - oh my, so gorgeous. His lucky, lucky wife.

steff13 · 03/09/2018 23:59

CrystalMazing, you and I are birds of a feather.
