You all seemed to LOVE yesterday's challenge so much we thought today we'd suggest clearing the garage. grin Just kidding.

Today, we want to hear who your celeb crush might be...? ?

When we went there, he was filming annodomini but on a coffee break on the next table to us.
I had an overwhelming urge to go and hug him and stroke his hair; DH had to restrain me!

David Attenborough

Good choice, Callistemon. I felt so sorry for Adam on Countryfile last night. He looked so crestfallen, needing to close his farm to visitors, and having to go back on his promise to his father. I do hope it all comes good for him in the long run.

Callistemon Mon 20-Apr-20 10:35:45

I'd choose Adam Henson but he'd probably prefer to spend time with his pigs and sheep.

Jason Momoa .

Oh YY to Julian Norton. He’s the only reason I tune into The Yorkshire Vet ?

suzette1613 Mon 20-Apr-20 10:17:05

Ooh!
Goran Visnjic, Julian Norton, Alistair Appleton, Cillian
Murphy, Benedict Cumberbatch, Simon Berger (Swedish actor). I don’t care if they are gay, bi, trans, married or single, all lockdown material!

I’m reading The Silkworm, and keep thinking about Cormoran Strike, and the actor who played him, Tom Burke?

Oh, he needed looking after, with his leg, and his dark hair, and his big, bear like build......

Why did Robin marry her awful fiancé, and not lovely Cormoran?

Dan Snow, great eye candy and intelligent as well.

Kittye Sun 19-Apr-20 07:27:30

Bathsheba another one here for Hugh Jackman. Gorgeous sexy Idris Elba. But Michael Ball has to be my favourite ❤️❤️

NotAGran55 Sun 19-Apr-20 07:08:20

Lizbethann According to LinkedIn he isn’t married . I was
—stalking— concerned about him when he was ? , and just needed to check for his well-being ?

Bathsheba Sun 19-Apr-20 06:06:57

Can’t believe no-one’s mentioned Hugh Jackman! Another for me is Martin Shaw, especially his Judge John Deed character. Greg Wallace is in the running too - can’t resist his amazing dimples!

notagran55 I agree about Chris Whitty! There is a real sweetness with that amazing intellect which is most attractive. And watching him grow in confidence as he stands behind that microphone has been wonderful. Is he married? (Just asking for a friend!?)

NotAGran55 Sat 18-Apr-20 22:31:18

Chris Whitty !!!!! For lockdown . Eric Clapton for the rest of the time.

susieq3 Sat 18-Apr-20 22:21:15

Oh yes pudding123 James Martin for me every time. Can’t stop watching his cookery programmes.

Abe49 Sat 18-Apr-20 15:57:01

Well I’ve been faithful to Richard Gere since I first saw him in Officer and a gentleman years ago. Watched Pretty Woman again this week. Not much can keep me awake at that time but that did!

SirChenjin Sat 18-Apr-20 15:54:18

Oh and Rufus Sewell ❤️ Will distracted me for a moment there.

SirChenjin Sat 18-Apr-20 15:48:32

Susan Calman and the handsome Will from the Repair Shop.

catladyuk Sat 18-Apr-20 15:45:53

oh dear, am i alone in this, Jose Mourinho anyone? Vlad too, (glad I'm not the only weird one who thinks he has that certain 'something' ) James Martin, David Essex (when he was younger) Leonard Cohen, also past crushes Dirk Bogarde and James Dean.

Oopsminty Sat 18-Apr-20 15:11:27

Kim Bodnia, he has that je ne sais quoi

He does, Callistemon!

Been watching him in Killing Eve

I also rather like Mark Carney

EllanVannin Sat 18-Apr-20 15:10:24

Martin Freeman.
David Ornstein-----his cheeky smile is captivating.
John Malkovich---interesting character.

Callistemon Sat 18-Apr-20 15:04:05

Kim Bodnia, he has that je ne sais quoi

Oopsminty Sat 18-Apr-20 14:51:57

Just re-watched The Missing and was reminded of my crush on Tchéky Karyo

I find him captivating.

Callistemon Sat 18-Apr-20 14:46:46

Isn't it a good thing we don't all vote fr the same ones!
As in RL of course.

Although, Discogran, I agree that Stephen Mangan has a certain mischievous charm

GabriellaG54 Sat 18-Apr-20 14:38:23

Oh yesss!! I do mean MrX Lucca ??
Not for his looks but the power and intrigue.
