Have been watching Vienna Blood, and am now lusting after the utterly delicious Max, played by Matthew Beard, new actor to me, oh my goodness not only is he beautiful, but his voice….
My daughter said, know your age mum, it should be the other lead, Oskar you should be swooning over, haha age is only a number!

No no Emelie. Far too hairless and polished .

I agree Sago, Rufus Sewell is rather gorgeous. I like a posh boy. 😉

MissAdventure Sat 21-Sept-24 11:50:39

I like a bit of rough. wink

Kate1949 Sat 21-Sept-24 12:07:39

James Martin the chef for me.

MissAdventure Sat 21-Sept-24 12:09:37

He has very capable looking forearms, I thought, this morning, when I caught sight of them smile

Kate1949 Sat 21-Sept-24 12:28:41

We've seen him live a couple of times. He's very funny and plays a mean guitar 🎸

My latest crush is Errol Shand who played the 'baddie' in ITV-X's The Twelve, season 2. Now he was a bit of rough, and at first I couldn't decide whether he was appallingly ugly or downright attractive. The attractive bit won! I wouldn't mind sharing a chocolate bar with him, any time.

He does have that Antipodean look about him.

Talking about Antipodeans, as well as Sam Neill, I'll add Hugh Jackman to the list.

I’ve also seen James Martin in a strop!

I agree Casdon, a crush shouldn’t include our DHs, past or present. It’s usually one sided and often unrealistic.
Although I’m waiting for Bryan’s phone call to confirm our date at the Ivy😁

I disagree.

I still have a crush, though he became a forever husband.

He's as wonderful as ever - my feelings have not lessened.

Kate1949 Sat 21-Sept-24 14:40:17

Jacky He can have a strop in my house any time.

BeneathTheHowlingStars Sat 21-Sept-24 14:59:45

Enrique Iglesias or Gary Oldman for me. Or both at the same time 😉

Yes, Allira, to Hugh Jackman and also Travis Fimmel. Think I'll have to move down under at this rate smile.

I’m in love with the old chap with the motor bike in the Volterol advert-I’d rub him in anytime!

MissAdventure Sat 21-Sept-24 16:44:56

I keep looking up all these mens pictures online.

Now I need the voltarol blokes pic as well.

Another vote for Johnny Flynn, especially when singing, eg in ‘Emma’
Young Jared Leto in ‘My So-Called Life’
Leonard Whiting in ‘Romeo and Juliet’ in about 1967!

My daughter and I watched Emma together swooning away. Mind you, Johnny has gone full on wild man of Borneo looks wise recently.Not sure if it’s for a film role or whether he just got fed up of being regarded as a heart throb. I love his music! I went off Johnny Depp when he left his wife: I like my heart throbs to be loyal husbands and fathers. And Johnny fits into that category.

My first crush was Richard Chamberlain who is now 90.
After that George Harrison, the boy who worked in the corner shop on Saturdays, George Clooney and Rupert Graves.

I saw a recent picture of him and he’s still gorgeous. I did see him in the street when he was working in rep in Birmingham when he wanted more acting experience. He and Sam Neill have aged so beautifully.

dogsmother Sat 21-Sept-24 21:38:06

Norah and Kitty…….yes yes yes !

Babs03 Sat 21-Sept-24 22:08:48

Matthew Mcconaughey.
The Lincoln Lawyer most specifically.
Though anything with him in it. Interstellar was fab. His southern drawl gives me goose pimples though I often can’t tell what he’s saying so have to put subtitles on. Then again who cares what he is saying.

I have had crushes on many of those named so far, but my latest is this young Irishman, who works with old-fashioned hand tools to lovingly repair old woodworking tools or small household items. He has a great sense of humour and isn't afraid to show when he messes things up.

I can think someone is nice looking and has sex appeal, but what I really like is someone who makes me laugh and is witty David Mitchell or Lee Mack, I don’t consider them attractive but their personalities are. They are also loyal husbands and I like that. Don’t like anyone shallow and a womaniser so it rules a lot out.,

Ilovedogs22 Tue 01-Oct-24 10:40:25

Yes,yes, yes in the words of dogsmother! Great choice of gorgeous men. Don't forget Timothy Dalton & Sting too. 😊

Greyduster Tue 01-Oct-24 11:03:31

Alexander the Great but he’s dead unfortunately, so I’ll settle for Professor Brian Cox or Rufus Sewell (or both! Who knows?😏).
