Unconventional cruahes

Off the back of the thread asking about who you think is stunning. Who do you have a crush on that would make most people raise an eyebrow as they aren't what most people would call conventionally good looking?

I've always had a huge thing for James Gandolfini. If he was still around, he would probably be old enough to be my dad but I've always found him incredibly charming and just thought he was lovely.

Anyone else want to share?

I assess each beard on its individual merits. Some I like some I don't. Same goes for men with long hair.

I was going to say Bob Mortimer too but it seems a crush on him is not unconventional at all going by the responses on this thread!

My soft spot is for the gingers. I can gaze forever into the eyes of Julian Rhind-Tutt from Green Wing. But my main man whose looks are far from conventional is Ginger Wildheart. If you don't know, google him Blush

David Thewlis
David Morrisey
Liam Cunningham

(dont think these are necessarily weird in themselves, but they've all got a good 20 plus years on me!)

Brian Blessed

I saw Brian Blessed once, he was introducing a film called The Pirates, Sadly he’d pissed himself and I just couldn’t stop looking at his crotch

My crush has to be Sam Elliot, the man is sex on legs

CandyLeBonBon · 30/09/2020 09:59

@60sbird how do you know he'd pushed himself? Could it not just have been spilled water?

To the person who said Dick Strawbridge, did he have a son that used to be on his show. I think I used to like him!

Also, I'm not sure if this is weird or not, but I saw Peter Faulkner (Columbo) on something the other day, think it was a cameo in a Disney film and I started thinking he might be attractive! 🙈. Dd thought I was crazy and I never used to fancy him when I was younger. I suppose it's because I'm older now !

Paul Kaye the actor. I really really fancy him.
