To ask which comedians you think are hot?

[SpanishDanceTroupe]

Right, it's 2 in the morning, I've drank too much coffee in a bid to stay up and finish this essay, and I cannot stop thinking about the Richard Osman sex dream thread from the other day.
Richard is not my type despite the very large hands but it has got me thinking about comedy-adjacent people who I think are Quite Fit, and I need to know I'm not alone.

My picks:

• Richard Ayoade - awkward and funny and lovely and hot
• James Acaster - exactly the same reasons (I have a type )
• Mike Wozniak - I was lucky enough to go to the Taskmaster recordings in October and after seeing him on there I've secretly thought of him as quite attractive. Think it's the moustache, but I'm usually anti-facial hair so I'm not quite sure where that's come from...

Please entertain me during my coffee-fuelled mania by telling me your comedy crushes. I can't be the only one can I?

Noel Fielding
Rhod Gilbert
Jack Whitehall
Richard Ayoade
Alan Davies

and Ed Byrne. I've met him. He's every bit as lovely as I thought he would be.

Love Greg Davis esp as ken in Cuckoo for some reason .Also Jack Whitehall as well .Also adore Dawn French and Miranda is so funny and kind too I think . We all need more humour now for sure!

I’m not sure if I mentioned John Bishop - really blokey blokes who are vegetarian really do it for me!

How could I forget my girl crush on Diane Morgan aka Philomena Clunk! She’s just brilliant!

I have fancied Frank Skinner and Paul Merton for years. Still do.
Now also love Ed Byrne, Reece Shearsmith and Rhod Gilbert.
Used to find Adam Hills attractive until he grew that truly hideous beard.

Rhod Gilbert. I always instantly think "he'd be totally filthy fun in bed" whenever I see or hear him. Love the accent. Proper fanny gallops.

Adam Hills, seems like such a great person as well as clever, politically aware and funny. Ding dong.

Forgot to mention Mat Baynton from Horrible Histories. God, especially doing the Pachacuti song. Please watch that video, people! Like a pp I think I enjoyed Horrible Histories more than my kids did.

Ricky Gervais
Bob Mortimer
Noel Fielding
Mo Gilligan

@Mummadeze

Can’t believe not one person has said Rob Beckett. He is my comedian crush.

Me too. He's very funny and cute.

@FossilisedFanny

Noel Fielding is gorgeous

Yup

Noel Fielding
Ed Gamble
Jason Manford

My comedy girl crush is Katy Wix - she was brilliant as Fergie in The Windsors.

Does Hugh Laurie count? I know he’s not strictly a comedian but love him since Blackadder.

Ed Byrne
Mathew Baynton
Sean Hughes
Rob Newman
I obviously have a thing for studenty-types, I do like a good cardigan

Miles Jupp (not as Archie from Balamory though!)

I had to Google Mike Wozniak cos I immediately thought of the guy from Monsters Inc

The lip bite in the 4 George's song too...

This Gilbert and Noel Fielding.

Rob Delaney too, I love him so much. Also yes to all the Horrible Histories lot, especially Baynton and Willbond.

Would love to know the story Katherine told about beta males in comedy - I can't find it anywhere.

Just me for Dara O’Briain then?! Clever and funny also a yes to Richard Herring after last series Taskmaster

Tim Minchin, though when we met him he said my husband was hot. No mention of me 😂 actually my husband looks a bit like him so perhaps that’s weird anyway.

Daniel Sloss.
Ed Byrne.
Aisling Bea.

I used to fancy Richard Herring until I read his autobiography.

I have a thing for Romesh Ranganathan, and recently started thinking that David Mitchell is rather lovely.

What put you off thecrowning?

I agree that Rob Delaney is very hot, especially his voice. I on/off fancy Ed Byrne, mostly off recently.

Arms from Foil, Arms and Hog. Tall, dark-haired and funny, with dimples. Also far, far too young for me.
