Each day in December I'll be celebrating a handsome man. You may ask why, but there's no meaningful reply I can give other than: why not? They'll be revealed over the next 31 days in strict alphabetical order, so no favouritism. And you never know, I might celebrate 31 women in January...!
JASON O'MARA, 43
"Who?" you may cry. "It's Christmas Day, who the hell is Jason O'Mara?" Well, that's just the way the alphabetical-ness of this list has fallen. Jason is probably best known for playing Sam Tyler in the American remake of Life on Mars in 2008, but I've recently come to know him in the axed Spielberg fantasy series Terra Nova from 2011. Jason is Irish and has that automatic twinkly charm that seems to be in the DNA of anybody born there. He had a stint on UK screens, perhaps most memorably as Fergal in the 2001 series of Monarch of the Glen, but has had great success as a character lead actor in the US, more recently in Vegas, The Good Wife, Sons of Liberty and Complications. And he's actually a pretty good actor. He brings quirks to his performances to make them stand out, and his characters that little more unique or individual. Again, it's those eyes. I see themes developing as I unveil each handsome man every day - the eyes, the smile, the hair. Very rarely, if ever, does the physique come first for me.
