I think I've got a crush on DCI Gene Hunt

[DavidMightJustBeTheGuy]

So I've just watched Life on Mars and I am now watching Ashes to Ashes which I think I am enjoying even more.
Somewhere along the lines I seem to have developed a crush on DCI Hunt.
He's very much of his time of course but he's actually really honest, loyal and cares about fighting criminals/evil. I guess he is firm but fair.

I find him very amusing to watch 'you're surrounded by armed bastards'

Did anyone else feel strangely attracted to him? I sort of miss more old fashioned men. I know that is really uncool to say that but so many men nowadays seem so feminine/unmanly.

Gene Hunt. Your DCI and it's 1973, almost dinner time. I'm 'aving hoops

... aaaand knickers melt

Yuk! Never turned ne on then or now. I do have to add that there were plenty of liberal, hippy types who were pretty toxic too in their way tradwife, 'good woman' stuff.

Me too, along with D.I. Reagan in The Sweeny (Played by the wonderful John Thaw).

DCI Gene Hunt and Supt Ted Hastings from Line of Duty.

I was thrilled to see Adrian Dunbar in a small role in A2A as he’s my No.1 celeb crush.

Ooh yes. And Doyle (The Professionals). Martin Shaw ❤️

My absolute favourite crush is Gene Hunt! After it finished I was quite excited to watch Phillip Glennister in other programs but alas, it is only Gene I fancy, not the actor 😆

Hell yeah!

Oh god yes! DH was like but bloody hell he was sexy in that part.

Loved Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes, and especially Gene. The music, the nostalgia and the total lack of political correctness, with John Simm and Keeley Hawes failing-mostly-to rein them all in. Such a clever show.

Another recommendation for Mad Dogs from me too. Look out for Tiny Blair!!

Have to watch this again now. I’m still in the queue for Gene Hunt 😂

I’ve always had a crush on him. I didn’t know this was a bad thing!
