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!

Robert De Niro and Clint Eastwood for me,….🤗
Oh and Jack Nicholson….

Starting with Rowdy Yates when I was about 12, I really used to like Clint Eastwood too - until shortly after 9/11, when ‘the big tough guy’ of his image was too scared to get on a plane to attend a premiere in London.

It particularly hit home, since at the time we got on a plane in the other direction, to attend a memorial film screening event for my BiL, who used to make documentaries.

More recently I did have a minor lust for the chap (can’t remember his name) who played Montalbano!

An actor few have heard of Tom Ellis - he played Lucifer in the Netflix series

Oh, I thought Oskar in Vienna Blood was lovely!

He had such sad eyes! He needed mothering and looking after!

Deal, Sago!wink

I also have a bit of a thing for Hugo Botchega (sp?) who is a BBC reporter from the Middle East. He previously reported from Ukraine.

Richard Gere. It’s the way he walks.

I had a yen for Xand van Tulleken but he's gone all skinny. @Tenko: Viggo Mortenson was perfect as Aragorn but he's too skinny too. I'll stick with DH I think ....

Tenko

Viggo Mortenson as Aragon in lord of the Rings , long term crush

And I’m always reading on Facebook about how he buys the horses that he acts with and bought the horse that was Arwens stunt double for her as she couldn’t afford to buy it herself.

It’s James Norton for me please.

Not a recent crush ,I,ve had an ongoing crush on Hugh Quarshie who was Ric in Holby City .I watch everything he,s in.He has the most beautiful smile.

Ooh, yes. We don't see enough of him.

Sam Neill - yes.

However, if I had to choose a dinner date I'd pick Bob Mortimer.

I agree with Nannylovesshopping, Matthew Beard is absolutely beautiful. As is George Russell, F1 driver for Mercedes in case you haven't come across him. Both with cheekbones to die for, wonderful eyes and lovely voices ... I'm nearly 79, but if the time comes when I can't appreciate a gorgeous man then life will no longer be worth living.

And if I'm only allowed to appreciate the more vintage type, then Sam Neill will do just fine!

*Sago*, how many times do I have to tell you - he's mine. Along with a bar of cadbury's whole nut.

I would do a week on and a week off if you’re happy to share.
You can keep the chocolate😉.

Another vote for the gorgeous Robson Green. Have had a soft spot for him since he was in Casualty, thought he was great in Soldier, Soldier (was teaching overseas in an army school and late husband was in the army so it was particularly relevant) and have enjoyed watching his career.

Not recent, Idris Elba, I can easily leave the chocolate!

I used to fancy him, too (And loved "Luther"), until I noticed what bowed legs he's got. That put me off.

Sago Thu 19-Sept-24 21:18:32

Rufus Sewell.

Biscuitmuncher Thu 19-Sept-24 21:07:03

Jack Stein I love red hair and he'd make a lovely dinner

Tenko Thu 19-Sept-24 21:02:57

It would have to be Robson Green as Jordy in Grantchester. He has eyes that you could get lost in.

Nannylovesshopping Thu 19-Sept-24 20:58:41

Oh there’s some crackers here, keep them coming😀

Georgesgran Thu 19-Sept-24 20:47:02

Hands off petra
Loved him from his playing days (long hair) for Newcastle.
David is ageing like fine wine!

Deedaa Thu 19-Sept-24 20:45:11

I do rather lust after Tom Burke (Cormoran Strike) there's something about his scarred lip that makes him look very kissable!
