The other evening I watched the final of Celebrity Best Home Cook, and found myself thinking, ‘he’s really rather cute’ about Ed Balls! I also find Chris Whitty strangely fascinating.
Is there anyone you secretly fancy?

I’m in the Chris Whitty fan club too , however I suspect that he wouldn’t be interested in any of us ladies.

Rick Stein would be most welcome in my kitchen any day .

Lee Ingleby - he was the father of the young boy in 'The A Word'.

James Nesbitt, always looks like he’s up for a laugh.
Kevin Peiterson the cricketer, especially in A League of Their Own when he, Freddie Flintoff, Jamie RedKnapp and Alan Carr, had to race sailing boats across the Channel and then take part in a burlesque show in Paris, Kevin was very graceful.
Jules Hudson always cheerful
Hugh Grant, even when grumpy he’s still funny and self deprecating.
And of course the divinely handsome George Clooney especially as he’s now Mr Mom during lockdown doing housework, mending and SEVEN loads of washing a day! Really George?

I've always had a bit of a thing for John Hannah - he has such smiley eyes.

John Thompson looks rather cuddly.
That's a surprise one.

Must be really getting old, since I’d rather have a cup of tea and a good book! But if I were 30 years younger I’d really fancy Gilou ((Spiral fans will understand.)

Sam Elliot

Bonus ball = on a good day hubster bears a passing resemblance. Well, with the grey hair and the moustach at least.

Ramin Karimloo and Andrew Scott ( priest in Fleabag )

Rufus Sewell, David Bowie and Luca Zingaretti (Montalbano) are lush!

catladyuk Sat 20-Feb-21 15:31:20

i don't think age enters into it witzend, but yes, i agree about gilou, and am sorry to admit to being 80!
i have no interest whatever in football, but, jose mourinho anyone?
i've also had a crush on thomasz schafernaker for years, did all you other fans know that he is an artist too?

Kandinsky Sat 20-Feb-21 15:33:09

John Hannah is just gorgeous - the only celebrity crush I’ve ever had.
But someone’s beat me to him grin

Amberone Sat 20-Feb-21 15:37:57

Sorry Kandinsky is it going to be pistols at dawn ??

I know we all have different tastes, and I can see why someone could be attracted to most of the names on here even if I'm not - but what is it about Rufus Sewell that makes him so popular????

Quite fancy Neil Dudgeon, who is Inspector Barnaby in Midsomer Murders.

tictacnana Sat 20-Feb-21 15:46:42

Dylan Moran. Black Books.

Severnsider Sat 20-Feb-21 15:54:14

John Reardon in Hudson & Rex.

I could cuddle up to Rex, the dog, too

MissAdventure Sat 20-Feb-21 15:58:10

Alan Sugar.

Kate1949 Sat 20-Feb-21 16:00:53

Sam Neill

Larrie Lamb and Bob Mortimer.

Rupert Penry Jones in his ‘Spooks’ era, Ryan Eggold (those eyes!) Liam Hemsworth and of course my long time crush George Clooney.

NotTooOld Sat 20-Feb-21 16:35:42

The new judge on Great Pottery Throwdown, the one who used to be the technician. Scrumptious. What's his name? I also like the young potter from Israel, don't know his name either but I like his curls and his bandana, a sort of young Keith Richards but more gentle.

Stumpie1 Sat 20-Feb-21 16:45:33

Weirdly - Chris Whitty and Martin Lewis (brains over brawn)
Lustfully - Andy García and Hugh Jackman
Cuddly - Matt Tebbutt

Not greedy....

grandmajet Sat 20-Feb-21 17:09:09

I like weirdly, lustfully, cuddly!
Weirdly is definitely Chris Whitty
Lustfully, hmm, Hugh Grant
Cuddly must be Ed Balls
