I have been thinking, during my last week on holiday, that I should bore you all with my idea of good bad guys. You know, the guys that we love and hate. That pain us and make us shudder with excitement in the same sentence, or evil glance. The "yes but would you be ok if your daughter brought him home" kind of guy. So, in no particular order, really....
Leslie Grantham.
OK, so he has a checkered past - what bad guy hasn't? He was briliant as Dirty Den, the first time round anyway. I wasn't too fussed on him being brought back from the dead in East Enders and felt he didn't really deliver the second time round but who knows, maybe I had grown out of Dirty Den by then. I did think it was great that he was felled by a dog shaped thing in the end, classic.
He went on to other things of course, and I still rate him as an actor. But he's not son-in-law material, is he.
Sean Bean.
Ah delicious Mr Bean, without the dumb humour of the OTHER Mr Bean. Not that the OTHER Mr bean isn't a great actor, just for the purposes of this exercise he hasn't got a lot going on.
I didn't like Sean baby in Sharpe, even tho' some sites claim that is where he got 'sex symbol' status. He just never did it for me, he seemed gawky and out of sorts.I saw him in some movie as a bank robber and that was when I thought, hmmmmmmmmmm - noice! And thats not the thoughts I would be wanting about a son-in-law!
Michael Hutchence.
Ok. slight deviation (in more ways than one) from the actor side of things but this boy was from our side of town down here. AND he was naughty, very naughty and we like that. But probably not as a son-in-law.
Ray Winstone.
yes, I have gotten into trouble before by stating that I thought Ray is sexy. And I still think that.Even tho' this might be an old photo.
He played a baddie in a mini series I saw a couple of years ago but he really had me hooked several movies ago and certainly for Henry VIII. However, I'm not convinced he's son-in-law material.
So, I could go on but you've probably already started snoring. If you haven't, who would you think twice about if your daughter/son brought them home?
