I'm in love with James McAvoy.

Watched Together last night and he's on the football just now. I think I've loved him since Shameless.

Anyone else?

I like his voice but he’s too short, skinny and weedy for me.

Seesawmummadaw · 18/06/2021 21:17

I’ve worked with him, he’s a really nice guy.

[quote Lostandtired1]@Ickythefirebobby people divorce and split up all the time it's not necessarily to
do with his success. From what I've heard him and Anne Marie Duff are on vey good terms.[/quote]
I was at the Oliviers in 2018.As I came out of the loo Anne Marie Duff was then walking in so I held the door for her.. I told her I'd really enjoyed her recent Desert Island Discs and she replied "Thanks Love!" and disappeared into a cubicle!

I was at drama school with James.

He was and is lovely. Very genuine and a fabulous actor. And a bloody nice guy to boot.

Lizzie523 · 18/06/2021 21:38

I rate him as an actor and he seems nice enough.

But that's where it ends. I think there was something a bit off about him based on the Graham Norton episodes I've seen him in. That strange thing he said about smelling Meryl Streep and then the Victoria's Secret models thing when Hosier was on. Just a bit of a laddish undertone.

I sorta liked him until I saw him on the su2c bake off. I’d Leave my husband for him now!!!!

I love a short, skinny guy... He's definitely my type!

Get in the queue, ladies, he's my one free pass! 😍😍😍 Had a crush on him since I clapped my eyes on him in Narnia!

MandoInABar · 18/06/2021 21:50

I really like him too 😬. I'm glad I didn't see him on Graham Norton from the sound of it.

Puffykins · 18/06/2021 21:50

I've also worked with him. He's great. And he's also really funny. And just genuinely really nice. He has zero interest in fame/ celebrity etc. which is also attractive in an industry where so many do.

Gilly12345 · 18/06/2021 21:59

Oh yes James McAvoy is lush, he really is Gods gift to Women.

I really fancy him too but in the football earlier I thought he had let himself go a bit. I assume that's for a film role. Even then he looked lush though.

Myusernameisnotmyusernameno · 18/06/2021 22:06

Idris Elba is gorgeous.

cadentiasidera · 18/06/2021 22:26

Has no one mentioned him in Becoming Jane? His eyes as he looks at her! swoons

That’s really nice to hear. 😀
Lostandtired1 · 18/06/2021 23:59

I'm shocked at how many people lived near him/went to school/drama school/worked with him. My jealously meter is raging!!

I first saw him in Early Doors ( 2003) so I think I win first dibs

Missushbb · 19/06/2021 08:48

he has quite a posh Glasgow accent, i think they probably have to change it a bit though so they're understood! Thought Martin Compston was funny on this morning when they were talking about his scottish accent and he said that was his phone voice as well, his own accent is much stronger!

Missushbb · 19/06/2021 08:48

his sister is in two doors downs. bizarrely she was also famous for spending the night with Eminem when he played Glasgow 😂

Oblomov21 · 19/06/2021 08:54

He's nice. Not classically good looking. Liked him in shameless.

HettySunshine · 19/06/2021 08:55

@romdowa

He is only dreamy 😍 my one wish is to see him in a kilt 🙈🙈😅😅
Like this?!
I'm in love with James McAvoy

@OverByYer. No ye don’t hen. I’ve seen him since he was about 4 or 5. So I win (I don’t fancy him though: but he could take me to some Hollywood parties and that and have a bit of banter)
