Late Flowering Lust !

I've just watched Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga for the third time, and i have to confess that Dan Stevens makes me go weak at the knees ( usually it's low blood sugar ).
I thought he was beyond brilliant in Downton of course, gorgeous in The Guest, loved him in Blithe Spirit, but the sight of him cavorting round to The Lion of Love almost gives me a heart attack !
How can anyone look so tasty ?
I'm also heartbroken because it doesn't appear to be out yet on DVD and i wanted to buy it for myself as a Christmas treat !
Who do you lust over ?

Very hard to beat the young Elvis in his Army uniform !!!!!

James Martin
Richard Gere
Henry Cavill
Marcus from Gogglebox

Definitely Chris Hemsworth ?

Widnesbabcia - I always thought that about Jack Nicholson, it’s the axe in his hand that’s a passion killer for me though!

Coco51 Wed 17-Nov-21 16:09:54

Stjepan Hauser one of the Two Cellos - if he smouldered any more je’d catch fire!

I admire those with a decent voice. Sorry not cockney, Somerset or Welsh. Gorgeous mature Scottish lilt is perfect and in second place Irish.
Looks really don’t matter to me. It’s the voice and manners for me.
Oh I’m in heaven at the thought of this.

Definitely Rege-Jean Page in Bridgerton, not so much when seen as himself in 'real life'.

Richard Dawkins for me. There is something about a “silver fox” with a phenomenal brain!

I adore Aljaz , dancer from Strictly but my first fancy was John Conteh , 1970s boxer .

I have to confess that, in addition to the gorgeous men already mentioned, I have nurtured a secret passion for Paul Simon since I was 13.(I am 68 now!) He isn't your average pin up, as he is extremely short and has had some truly terrible hair cuts, and I think that he probably wears a wig now. Or maybe he has had hair transplants. But his songs are so beautiful and his voice is soothing, and he has sad, soulful eyes. I would love to give him a cuddle.

I must be strange as I don’t lust after anyone. I quite like a bit of good (75%) dark chocolate preferably with hazelnuts, though, if that counts,

Colin Farrell. But he was born half way between my two daughters which makes me a cradle snatcher.

Secunder Kermani, the BBC's correspondent in Pakistan and Afghanistan. Just the way he pronounces Kabul (the correct way of course) has me weak at the knees, and his adorable haircut, and.... With apologies to my long-term crush, Richard E Grant.

Glad to see, looking through the responses, that I have Alan Bates all to myself....doubly so as DH is very like him.... Lucky me!

Llamas99 Wed 17-Nov-21 17:09:34

Richard Maddon especially in the Bodyguard the TV series . Also was in Game of Thrones. I go to sleep thinking of him sometimes ?

Steve Mcqueen did it for me. Must have watched Bullit a million times.

Allsaints55 Wed 17-Nov-21 17:25:06

O of course Elvis ! The early Vegas days . What a perfect physical specimen. And Sean Connery in Dr No …… so sexy
It’s hard now we are older and don’t have the power to entice but that’s for another forum/ discussion ?

Sadly two young barmen who served us yesterday. Mentally slapped my own wrist when I thought- if I was *years younger?? - and realised the * would be 50 blush

Diggingdoris Wed 17-Nov-21 17:42:42

Tom Conti
George Clooney
Idris Elba
Tom Selleck
Sean Connery now he's older, didn't fancy the young one!
