I have a soft spot for Keanu Reeves. I have had a crush on him since his Matrix films - all black leather etc. He's had a sad life. I like how grounded and kind he appears to be in real life. A good egg

Carenza and what was that business with Taylor Swift all about? That was very odd

Gary Richardson!
I think that he was the original inspiration for Alan Partridge (when Partridge was a radio character)

Carenza Hiddleston's eyebrows annoy me

I like Adam Henson the farmer from Countryfile. He seems genuine and often speaks fondly of his late dad.

Gary ? He is the Sports Editor on Radio 4 in the morning. He’s so funny.

Tony Blackburn who just seems a genuinely nice bloke with daft jokes as well as a knowledge of 60s onwards music.

I like Tom Hiddleston who plays the character, Loki, in the Thor films. He is a Shakespearean actor and has been successful in his Loki role. Also in ‘The Night Manager’. He is very versatile, plays the spoons, dances, does terrific impersonations of fellow actors and seems an all-round genuine person. Oh, and handsome! Also I like Johnny Depp, who is a good actor.

Starting to like Clarkson on his farm programme too. He is a big softy...watch the Wilding one!

I like Clarkson too.
I think that his farm program has gained him some new fans too.
He has certainly bounced back after that appalling business with his colleague.

yes I like Rylan Clarke-Neal, he's a very good presenter in my opinion.....Didn't used to like his black hair and beard till I found that he is naturally very very pale ginger and was bullied horribly as a boy and that's why he dyes it.

I didn't use to like Jeremy Clarkson but do since he's been doing the Millionaire show, much better than Chris Tarrant.

Hello Everyone! ?

As a companion thread to nanna8's 'irrational dislikes on sight'.

Who, in the public eye, do you think comes across as rather a good egg?

Extra points if the celeb in question is usually found in the other camp
(is there anyone out there who actually likes Schofield or Holden??)

For me, it's Rylan Clarke-Neal.
I think that he is a TV natural, and he seems really warm and friendly.
I'd really like to be his mate.

So, which Celebs do you have a soft spot for, and why?

Thank you!
