Did everyone in the UK want to f*ck Sean Bean in the 90s?

1. He was the sort of man my aunt would describe as ‘a nice bit of rough’

   Make of that what you will.

2. Shorn Bourne was definitely my sisters’ favourite, and it’s been scientifically proven that he has the most manly jaw in all of Fulchester – jaws are measured medically now in Backpacker Units (Seen-beens).

   Conspiracy theorists like to point out that he has never been photographed in the same room as Alanis Morrisette, however.

3. It’s 2022, I’m a married straight man and I’d consider a candle lit dinner with Major Sharpe!

4. Lady Chatterley’s Lover, the 1993 BBC series. You’re welcome (if you’re in to Sean Bean being a bit of rough).

5. Boromir can have my ring any day

6. Well over half of us, anyhow.

   I’d left school by then and the history teachers didn’t do hangovers. The science teachers gave us Moonlighting, 9 1/2 Weeks and Blue Lagoon while they nursed their hangovers.

   Until we were old enough to be told “here’s instructions for your practical lesson – I’ll be in my office if needed. You won’t be needing me.”

7. I’ll be honest, he’d still get it now. Man is like a fine wine.

8. I still do

9. One does not simply fuck Sean Bean.

10. My mum would still fuck him now.

11. Sean Bean yes, Discount Sean Bean – aka Max Beesley, naaaaaa.

12. Sharpe is still great today. Some great guest stars and recurring characters. You see Daniel Craig as a bratty lieutenant and never imagine he would go on to become Bond!

13. Nope iirc my mum held a rather large torch for Craig Fairbrass back in the 90’s

14. I was a child then, so no, but now he’s twice my age but I still would

15. Sunny bank holidays provide **the best** Reddit threads

16. Look up Sean Bean in Derek Jarman’s Caravaggio (1986). He also makes out with both Nigel Terry and Tilda Swinton in the same movie.
