Thought I've give my (very) shallow side an airing on this wet and gloomy Sunday.

Some guys I didnt think had it when they were younger though now think they do :
Sean Bean
Keanu Reeves
Jon Bon Jovi
Matthew McConaughey
Jerome Flynn
Iain Glen

Some guys who've always had it - and still have :
Antonia Banderas
Brad Pitt
John Malcovich
Viggo Mortensen
Daniel Day Lewis
Charles Dance

A honorary couple under 50
Tom Hardy
Andy Whitfield - lead in Spartacus, so very sadly died young

Ho Lee Cow......

Think I'll soon be reverting to my 1970's past time of putting posters up in my bedroom.

Rufus Sewell
Denzel Washington
Zinedine zidane (soon)

OMG Rufus Sewell, forgot about him....gorgeous man

Artaylar Sun 13-Dec-20 18:57:20

I would have included Dominic West, but goddamit, he seems to have been such a plonker recently

Luckygirl Sun 13-Dec-20 18:58:28

I think a cold shower might be in order! grin

Artaylar Sun 13-Dec-20 18:59:42

Thats so funny Luckygirl

Alternatively a spot of ironing might do it

Artaylar Sun 13-Dec-20 19:05:03

I've just thought of another one - Yanis Varoufakis ....sheesh

Right I'd better get out of here for that cold shower

Ever, everyone knows that Rufus Sewell is mine!!

And David Essex.

Ooh, definitely Rufus Sewell, plus the actor who played Cormoran Strike (can't remember his name)

Juliet27 Sun 13-Dec-20 19:23:05

It’s Robert Lindsey for me.

Tom Burke.

But he isn’t over 50 surely!!!

I didn't like Martin Shaw back in the day when in The Professionals but when he started in Judge John Deed, I thought age had improved him!

allsortsofbags Sun 13-Dec-20 19:36:34

James Purefoy seems to have aged very well too :-)

Luckygirl Sun 13-Dec-20 19:40:28

I have just looked up Rufus Sewell......I mean looked up who he is, not..........!

He doesn't do it for me I am afraid. Too smooth; I like 'em rugged.

Brian Ferry

Grandmabatty Sun 13-Dec-20 19:58:11

What about George Clooney? I think he's even more gorgeous now he's all silver

Jaxjacky Sun 13-Dec-20 20:03:27

Marcus Wareing, John Barrowman (yes, I know), Samuel L Jackson, Steve Tyler, Will Smith and Bradley Walsh

Georgesgran Sun 13-Dec-20 20:07:22

Ex Newcastle footballer David Ginola still ‘has it’ for me. His middle name is Desire which says it all!

nanaK54 Sun 13-Dec-20 20:09:26

David Essex
Martin Kemp
Bryan Ferry

You're right. My fingers seemed to type his name before I could stop myself (but I realised after I'd posted)

Kate1949 Sun 13-Dec-20 20:16:11

I agree with Martin Shaw, Martin Kemp and David Ginola.
Also Paul McGann.
I can't see it with Rufus Sewell.

Greyduster Sun 13-Dec-20 20:17:41

Absolutely Martin Shaw. And although he just sneaks into fifty by three months, Rupert Penry-Jones for his boyish good looks (I’m a cradle snatcher!).

honeyrose Sun 13-Dec-20 20:20:03

I really like the actor who plays Ray Crosby in Coronation Street. He does play a villain in Corrie, but he’s such a silver fox. Lovely bone structure, teeth, eyes, skin, hair, etc etc. Yes he plays a baddie, but he’s gorgeous!

GrannyGravy13 Sun 13-Dec-20 20:21:54

I am not a fan of pretty men........

Nicholas Cage
Tom Hardy
