Too many to mention I led a sheltered life when I was younger!

Brad Pitt!

I think you mean a crush on somebody much younger than we are Daddima? If so, I’m quite smitten with Bradley Cooper.

For a female crush I love Alison Steadman. Great actress

Can I choose Martin Shaw as my crush. Oh and Rupert Sewell but he is betrothed now !!

Current crush is Cole Hauser but only as Rip Wheeler in Yellowstone, with his hat on. :niche: 🤣

I do. Three Turkish actors. Gokhan Alkan, Engin Akyürek and Can Yaman. blush

I became hooked on Turkish dramas, when my health failed and I was confined to barracks. Pure escapism.

The bonus is I am also learning to speak Turkish! 🤣

P.S. Please don't tell anyone! wink

I’m not old but I have a girl crush on Monica Galetti , one of the masterchef hosts.

The only crush for me will always be David Essex.

I kind of read it wrong thinking the crush was for an old lady, Dames Maggie or Judy sprang to mind, well definitely no!, fine actresses that they are. An older woman crush at least, who wants to be classed as an old ladyshock

The judge on Britain's Best Woodworker

Or ‘ rather than “!

Oh, for an edit button.

Should be “ rather than )!

Or an ‘old gentleman crush’, if you are not an old lady?
I have been watching The Good Doctor, about a surgeon with autism and savant syndrome. You must suspend belief a great deal, but I have developed the said ‘old lady crush’ on Freddie Highmore, who plays Shaun, after seeing him interviewed on You Tube.
My friend loves Harry Styles, and my daughter-in-law says her crush is Timothee Chalamet ( whoever he is)

I don’t count my Paul McCartney or Sam Neill crushes, as they are nearer in age.
