I’ve started watching Life on Mars/Ashes to Ashes as they’re now on iPlayer. I missed them first time around. I remember someone mentioning Philip Glenister as being hot and thinking Confused but now I totally see it!

Anyone else? Blush

I give up now.

ElizaDee · 19/09/2019 19:49

No, that's not him.

Colombo? Monk?

ElizaDee · 20/09/2019 08:56

No, more modern than those.

Cracker?

Robson Green In Grantchester or Wire in the Blood?

Let’s just focus on the gene genie. Smile

Ihopeyourcakeisshit · 20/09/2019 17:13

Amen to that!

JaimeBronde · 20/09/2019 19:27

And I third that!
Gene may be the biggest chauvinist going but he makes the world feel safe.
He's like a 70s version of an old fashioned cowboy in a western.
Which isn't surprising considering he had a poster of Gary Cooper in High Noon in his office.

TomHagenMakesMyBosomTremble · 20/09/2019 19:34

And God forbid if you nearly make Gary Cooper come off the wall!

DominicCummingsGilet · 20/09/2019 22:36

High Noon was the Times classic film of the week! I haven’t seen it, or many westerns for that matter.

Bumping this old thread to say that the guy I was thinking of was Christopher Fairbank.

Not that it’s been bugging me for six months or anything Grin

@JumpyLiz No, that's not him.

JumpyLiz · 14/03/2020 21:44

That's a shame but I'm still bloody joyful that I finally found out who the hell it was I was thinking of! Smile

TheQueef · 14/03/2020 21:47

As someone once said I would climb him like a tree.
I like both Glenister brothers though, they have a twinkle.

Yousicktwistedfruit · 14/03/2020 23:20

I think he’s really funny but I never had a thing for him the ending will be a complete surprise and not at all what your expecting.

DressesWithPocketsRockMyWorld · 14/03/2020 23:28

YANBU. I am the most leftie feminist girl ever and I still absolutely would climb all over Gene Hunt.

Pull your knickers up and make us a cup of tea Grin

Cluelessbeetroot · 15/03/2020 00:01

Never watched either of them but I would love to lock myself in a bedroom with Philip Glenister for a week

mrsBtheparker · 15/03/2020 16:06

Gene Hunt is sex on legs

I used that phrase to describe Martin Shaw and my 14 year old grandaughter was horrified, At your age Grandma!!!. I can have the next 4 months in isolation to admire him further!!

crapette · 15/03/2020 17:04

Philip Glenister was on TV this week promoting a new series. It's called Belgravia - possibly starts tonight.

WhentheRabbitsWentWild · 15/03/2020 17:07

Watched Ashes to Ashes and Life on Mars on BritBox as missed them first time around . Loved both series.

Gene Hunt has a certain something about him, it has to be said.

Bananabixfloof · 15/03/2020 17:23

Christ, gene hunt is one sexy man. I've just found out Philip glenister is 57 years old. I'm 50, that's ok in my book.

Daisychainsandglitter · 15/03/2020 17:24

I'm currently re-watching Ashes to Ashes and I definitely would!
Do not fancy Gene Hunt whatsoever in Life on Mars. I think it's the chemistry with Keely Hawes. I love that programme!

WhentheRabbitsWentWild · 15/03/2020 18:21

I found him most attractive when he was at his most vulnerable, shocked at the forgotten truth and humble , , ie everything from that field in Lancashire onwards.
