It would be a strange parallel universe in which I settle down to watch HGHG on film. I also have to say that Bill Nighy does not quite push the buttons with me, although I did find him rather tasty in The Men's Room a dozen years ago. But he's definitely on the list of "Not my type but I can see the attraction".
The Sun makes me laugh okay, I know, that's its point
Bill Nighy isnt your typical movie heartthrob...But believe it or not, Bill's been getting some strange attention from adoring female fans.I don't see what the surprise is. Women fancy a good looking charismatic man who comes across - to me, anyway - as having at least a modicum of personality.
I suppose the tabloids and their symbiotic partners at the trough of nihilism, PR People, would be a lot happier if we all fell for insipid two dimensional pretty boys. And young, of course. The ones that spring to my mind are David Beckham and Jonny Wilkinson - both talented, good looking boys and by all accounts very pleasant. And yet despite their lack of personality and utter absence of anything interesting, they still seem streets ahead of most of the zygotic so-called pin-ups we're supposed to fancy.
Or is it that The Sun regards women over thirty as invisible and de-sexed, and therefore cannot contemplate how we could possibly fall for somewhat older men, because they can't contemplate our existence?
(Is this where I invoke the Paul Newman clause?)
