Kind of a throwback and a Man Candy Monday combined. The glorious Mr. Irons has given us much to admire, but let us look back on his seminal role in the original Brideshead Revisited, which first aired 33 years ago yesterday. Jeremy Irons has aged gracefully because he started out quite yummy.
I watched Brideshead as a preteen and reveled in the lush British homoeroticism of it all. And look here what the interwebs turned up…
-
- Jeremy Irons as Charles Ryder and Anthony Andrews as Sebastian Flyte – good friends!
-
- really good friends!
-
- really, really good friends
-
- BFFs! (ok, the story doesn’t have a happy ending, but let’s just pretend, m’kay?)
Whether evil pope or sharply dressed 1920s college boy, he’s some nice mancandy.
Oh yeah, he’s easy on the eye.
