Why is THE HOT DUKE not on top?

AIBU, or just a complete old-woman perv, to think that the HOT DUKE OF BRIDGERTON (who has literally become the only thing that's keeping ME going through this January) should be firmly "on top" Wink of this list?

Who would sign my petition? Anyone else spending every cold dark evening with the Duke? Blush

Oh yes, he is rather easy on the eye.

Whatonearth2021 · 13/01/2021 11:49

YANBU - I’m obsessed Wink

CrotchBurn · 13/01/2021 11:49

I dont find him hot. Or her. 🤷‍♀️

2021newstart · 13/01/2021 11:50

Oh yes! He's THE only man seeing me through this awful January...

RetailGail · 13/01/2021 11:51

Why have we not seen him before?

Sparklingbrook · 13/01/2021 11:51

It was Connell in Normal People during the first lockdown. Grin

The bad acting completely ruins any hotness for me I’m afraid.

It's olyn on Iplayer for another couple of months tell them to get cracking! Although it's a very annoying story isn't it? Grin
I felt so sorry for Paul Mescal, everyone fell for his character but it was evident he is nothing like that as a person.

Cadent · 13/01/2021 11:56

Haha, he is insanely hot. Although, The Peloton plug is so cringe in that blog, they’ve clearly been paid by Peloton to put it in.

Biscuits25 · 13/01/2021 11:56

He is absolutely beautiful! Shock

8hoursormore · 13/01/2021 11:56

@RetailGail @2021newstart has he been in anything else? I need to research this....

Connell Waldron in Normal People for anyone that's not seen it.

He was also in For the People. I enjoyed that too.

Is Bridgerton any good? I've not seen it yet.

8hoursormore · 13/01/2021 12:00

@Sparklingbrook pwoar. Thank you for posting Connell. It was hilarious the conversation this morning. I mentioned Connell's neck/shoulders/necklace being "the thing" that got me through Lockdown 1 and they were all clueless!

It is at least party responsible for me surviving week one of covid. I highly recommend it
Wnikat · 13/01/2021 12:01

He's been in Waterloo Road and Casualty!

I thought everyone had seen it more than once. His chain has it's own Instagram page. Grin You need to get a new job.

8hoursormore · 13/01/2021 12:06

@Sparklingbrook I know right! Me and my friends were obsessed last year. Literally started watching it again straight after it finished!!!!
