For the girls….

Top 20 men – which is your favourite??

20 = TOM CRUISE
We love Tom, we really do, but we’re getting a bit bemused by all that Scientology gubbins and the weird romance with Katie from the Creek. Just chill out, Tom, and start taking your shirt off more again

19- TOBEY MAGUIRE
We could make a cheap and tacky joke about how we’d love to get caught in the Spiderman star’s web, but really, you expect better of us. Don’t you?

18 – OLIVIER MARTINEZ
To your bloke, Olivier is the lucky Frenchie who bagged his dream woman. To you, Kylie is the lucky Ozzie who bagged your dream man. That’s the gender gap for you!

17 – GORAN VISNJIC
It took a special kind of man to fill gorgeous George Clooney’s shoes as head consultant love-doctor in ER, but Goran has the bedside manner. What a guy, and what a stethoscope action!

16 – KEANU REEVES
Being milked for energy by malevolent alien types while living imaginary lives in a Matrix-thingy? Pah! We’ll live with it if Keanu’s along for the ride

15 – JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE
The swivel-hipped crooner can arrange a “wardrobe malfunction” with us any time he jolly well likes. In fact, our wardrobes are malfunctioning just thinking about it.

14 – DERMOT O’LEARY
He’s the boy next door we always dreamed about, and the best thing to happen to British television since Des Lynam’s moustache. Er, maybe that’s just our little peccadillo

13 – RUSSELL CROWE
We like sensitive types. We love new men. But sometimes what we really want is a bloke who’ll punch the waiter for not being pronto with the prawn cocktails

12 – EWAN McGREGOR
The sexy Scot makes films, rides motorbikes and wears nothing under his kilt. We made the last bit up, but it’s not an image that will leave you in a hurry. You hope

11 – COLIN FARRELL
Given that he’s almost as famous for his womanising as his films, there’s a good chance Colin will get round to us eventually. Come on, Colin, we’re ready and waiting

10 – GEORGE CLOONEY
Actor, director, entrepreneur, social campaigner and all round good guy. But who cares about all that! George is officially the most eligible hunk in the whole universe ever

9 – BENICIO DEL TORO
There’s the smouldering Latino thing. There’s the sexy older man thing. There’s even the sex in a lift with Scarlett Johansson thing. Ladies, what’s not to like???

8 – DAVID BECKHAM
He might not be Goldenballs anymore, but let’s face it, Becks still looks a lot better in a pair of Speedos than Wayne Rooney. Juts ask Rebecca Loos.

7 – JUDE LAW
There’s something especially sexy about a man who is engaged to someone gorgeous, but is happy to have it away with someone, well, ordinary. You’ve got to have hope, eh ladies?

6 – CHRISTIAN BALE
The lean and luscious actor lost 63 (count ‘em!) pounds for the film The Machinist, so not only is he hunky and rich, he could even help you with your diet…

5 – ORLANDO BLOOM
He’s good looking, famous, rich…but let’s face it (and yeah, we know we’re walking on some seriously seedy ground here) it’s the whole elf thing that really does it for us.

4 – JESSE METCALFE
What do you mean who? He’s the gardener in Desperate Housewives – you know, the one who – gulp – plants his seeds way beyond the borders. Sigh

3 – ROBBIE WILLIAMS
A straw poll of the office suggests that Robbie is the man we fantasise about most when canoodling with our better halves. Another straw poll suggests this isn’t the sort of thing we should admit to. Oops

2 – BRAD PITT
Brad is always gorgeous, but particularly so now he’s heartbroken over Jen and clearly needs the sort of TLC only a woman away from the limelight can offer. Either that or Angelina Jolie. Damn

1 – JOHNNY DEPP
Maybe it’s his stupendous talent, his smouldering eyes, or his enormous wealth. Whatever it is, we go Willy Wonkas over Johnny, a man who’s been engaged as many times as a kebab shop toilet.
