To find Robert Peston attractive?

I have noticed recent threads on Jacob Rees-Mogg and Matt Hancock, so thought I would ask...am I wrong to fancy Robert Peston?

I like his voice, especially when he talks slowly, his intelligence and find him very fascinating.

Oh god, no

NadjaCravensworth · 20/11/2022 19:09

You again?

Wind up this one

Wouldn't say he is attractive, but he is very entertaining. I loved when he appeared on 'Cunk on...'

Iwantmyoldnameback · 20/11/2022 19:12

He's better than Rees Mogg or Hancock.

🤮

I hear you OP. I love his hair.

Butchyrestingface · 20/11/2022 19:15

Not so much now but back in the day, yes ...

However, from previous comments, it appears you have form for unusual crushes.

DuchessDandelion · 20/11/2022 19:15

Noooo!

ShinyMe · 20/11/2022 19:19

Nobody can be 'wrong' for fancying anyone, surely? You fancy who you fancy.

I can see how Robert Peston could be seen as attractive. Doesn't do anything for me, but there you go.

Long overdue! 😄😄 YANBU

He's very clever and I find intelligence very attractive. I bet he'd be a right dirty bastard as well. <runs and hides>

I like him. No, you are not wrong!

Cam22 · 20/11/2022 19:40

He is clever. That makes him verrrrrry attractive to me.

Ew YABU but not as unreasonable as JRM or Hancock

Orangepolentacake · 20/11/2022 23:26

also I tried to read a book written by him, it was terrible

Possibly the most repulsive thread ever!

Crikeyalmighty · 20/11/2022 23:35

Kind of in the same ball park as Louis Theroux - I like both!!

MissHavishamsMouldyOldCake · 20/11/2022 23:37

He often parrots the govt lines in a way that makes me think he's not actually all that intelligent.

But obv I'd fuck him long before I'd even agree to shake Rees Mogg's clammy little paw.

It’s a thing. A man is famous. A few women decide to fancy him. It’s not much different to those women who fixate on incarcerated mass murderers. I think you’re just bored. It’s harmless (unless you strike up a correspondence with the mass murderer and then marry them, but even then, you’ll probably be safe for the duration of their prison sentence).

@Orangepolentacake

Do you mean you weren't able to understand it?

Questionaboutjoboffer · 21/11/2022 03:19

His voice is terrible - very affected and takes ages to say not much.
