I just watched that comedy Mum for the first time (clearly I'm a bit out of date).
PHWOAR. That is all.

Mullan, not Mullen

He’s also in Payback on ITVX!

Watching him in Olive Kitteridge on Sky Arts at the moment. He's a moody contrast to his role in Mum, and even sexier as a result 😋

Many, many moons ago I worked with Woman's Aid and he (very early in his career) led some acting workshops. He was a lovely man.

AgentProvocateur · 28/10/2023 02:41

I know him. He is lovely IRL too.

Mum is brilliant. I can't see him in quite that way but he is an amazing character.

This guy? If so, YABU. He's attractive for an older man. Not the sexist man alive by a long shot.

Confused

I had to google. He looks like a pleasant chap. But sexy……? Let alone, the sexiest…? 😳

MinnieL · 28/10/2023 04:55

Googled him and closed the tab straight away. YABU

Googled - YABU, and need help

I thought the same - the guy is 63 - and looks it. The big, hairy grey beard is not helping!!

Haven't seen him acting a character though. Maybe it's more about the character??

OldBilge · 28/10/2023 06:17

I think in literally everything I’ve seen him in, he’s playing someone villainously unpleasant…

Justleaveitblankthen · 28/10/2023 06:21

Hmm, he has that Brian Cox appeal I suppose.
Twinkly eyes and a nice smile.

Readingineading · 28/10/2023 06:29

Well, I can see an attraction, but sexiest man alive ? Its a no from me.

StarTrek6 · 28/10/2023 06:45

Well to look at not so much but he has a gravelly voice, soft Scottish accent, great actor...........

OfMiceandWomen · 28/10/2023 06:47

He was brilliant in Mum.

Tighginn · 28/10/2023 07:02

Hector is worth a watch.

Maybe I do....

I'm honestly completely smitten. Last time I felt like this about someone famous, it was Jason Orange in 1992.

Thanks for all the further watching tips 😃

@AgentProvocateur if I send you a tenner, can you DPD him to me?

A few years ago we were selling our home in Glasgow. The estate agent called to add someone to the list who was coming to see the flat. It was none other than your man 🙂 I was like "Peter Mullan, I recognise that name, is it THE Peter Mullan?" And indeed it was. He came for the viewing on his own and was very polite but quite quiet. He didn't buy our place in the end but would have been a cool story if he had! 😃

I think Mark Lewis Jones isn ‘t bad for a 59 year old.

Ewwww

PerkingFaintly · 28/10/2023 10:34

Oh I'm so pleased to see a bit of love for Peter Mullan. I've been a fan for years. He's a writer and director, too. The Magdalene Sisters about the Irish laundries is one of his.

Erm, not the sexiest man alive though. But does come across as very clever and really interested in people and their lives. Someone I'd love to have a cup of tea with.

I'm delighted to hear from folks who know him that he's genuinely lovely.

sensitile · 28/10/2023 10:36

Jesus..... he looks like he's been at sea for decades. Not attractive but each to their own.
