To find Adrian Chiles ridiculously gorgeous?

I didn't want to hijack Colditz's thread so started my own. I have been in mourning this week, he has been on holiday. My dd knows that she is to be in bed and quiet once the one show starts , my dh rips the piss out of me for fancying him (although he quite likes silly knickers Bleakley). I get so tht she can sit next to him and have his arm nearly around her. I know that he is grumpy but he is also funny in a 'what on earth is he going to say next' sort of way. I have even been known to watch football on the telly because he fronts one show.

Is he the one that looks like he could be the product of Martin Clunes and Shrek?

Ooh - minor claim to fame though, I used to work with their new astronomer. So I can do AC in 2 degrees

Oh no. He split from the marvellous Jane Garvey. Silly man.

Seaglass,you are being very unkind. My dd calls him the grey man. Bibbity, yes he was silly (but it leaves me with some hope). My dd knows how much I get slippery admire him and wrote to the BBC to ask them to come in their helicopter to our town. This is unlikely to happen for two reasons, she didn't put a stamp on the letter, BBC as a whole address isn't going to go far and welive in Switzerland so unlikely to be local interest.

yup, VU, nice bloke but not in the gorgeous stakes

RustyBear · 20/11/2009 13:25

He is a nice bloke - DS has met him a few times in the West Brom executive suite (one of our relatives who is a friend of Adrian Chiles is a shareholder & DS sometimes gets invited to lunch there before a game)

nonono it's up there with a) david tennent and b)the freakish david mitchell, ie, not good

Oh my giddy aunt Rusty, can you get your ds to swab Adrian with a tissue and send it to me so I can inhale the essence of Ade?

Oh dear that's unpleasant! bleuch!!

You don't have to worry, Bleakley is now being escorted around town by Frank Lampard.
(Shameful how much useless celeb gossip I know)

RnB · 20/11/2009 13:49

haha seaglass!

spicemonster · 20/11/2009 13:53

I don't think he's very nice. He dumped his wife and 2 kids and ran off with Bleakley. Who promptly dumped him. Hahahaha

RustyBear · 20/11/2009 13:56

You know the whole story then, do you spicemonster?

spicemonster · 20/11/2009 13:59

I know he had an affair with Bleakley. What else is there to know?

TheFoosa · 20/11/2009 14:01

is that true? I KNEW IT

Lemonylemon · 20/11/2009 14:02

"You don't have to worry, Bleakley is now being escorted around town by Frank Lampard.
(Shameful how much useless celeb gossip I know)"

And apparently the friendship between Bleakley & Chiles is distinctly frosty because of it?

MamaLazarou · 20/11/2009 14:02

YABU. He is repulsive.

ajandjjmum · 20/11/2009 14:03

The only good thing about him is that he's a West Brom supporter!

spicemonster · 20/11/2009 14:04

They denied it repeatedly but they were seen together on several occasions and her boyfriend broke up with her because of Chiles.

Why do I know this rubbish?

lorelilee · 20/11/2009 14:05

Oh Kreecher, am going to make you dead jealous. Was at my friend's in Hammersmith last weekend and he walked past the window twice!
