Which Leading Lady Makes You Most Jealous?

Benedict Cumberbatch

Your match is the dapper Mr Cumberbatch, and you like your men well-dressed and well-spoken, with a traditional approach to romance. You don't baulk at high-brow entertainment, but neither are you sniffy about pop culture. After all, Cumberbatch is as well known for his sci-fi roles as he is for his characters in period dramas, and he's just as likely to be snapped getting down on the dance floor as he is reading a poem at a public event. Admit it, though, you like him best in white tie and tails.

Eddie Redmayne

Your British love match is Eddie Redmayne, you lucky thing! This total sweetie would spoil you rotten and make you feel like the only girl in the world, even if you're just staying in with a bottle of wine and a box set. Smart, cute, and absolutely devoted to the important people in his life, Eddie's definitely a keeper . . . just ask his wife!

Idris Elba

Your love match is Idris Elba, the irresistible silver fox who's had us swooning ever since The Wire. The London boy is a DJ as well as an actor, so no doubt he knows all the cool places to take his dates. With Idris, there would never be a dull moment or a bad outfit. To top it off, he's well known for his charity work and devotes a lot of his time to helping good causes. Good looks and a good guy? Sign us up.

Tom Hiddleston

Tom Hiddleston is the man for you, so chances are you're after a guy who can make you laugh one minute and make you think the next. As Loki, he proved he can smirk with the best of them, but we also love it when he tackles more serious roles. He's charming and just the right shade of geeky. Plus, have you seen those baby blues?

Kit Harington

Are you the lady who can put a smile on Jon Snow's face? Brooding Game of Thrones star Kit Harington is your romantic match, but don't worry too much: he's a lot more fun off screen! Those soulful eyes and irresistible curls are probably enough, but if you need more persuading, he's also totally relaxed about nudity. Just saying.

Tom Hardy

Your Brit actor love match is Tom Hardy, and quite frankly, who can blame you? We've spent a long time trying to work out exactly when the man behind Bane first caught our eye, but whenever it was, we've been swooning ever since. If you need more convincing, check out him weeping while he cuddles his dog in a TV ad for Kleenex. So. Cute.

Robert Pattinson

Go on, admit it, you were a Twilight fan, weren't you? Even if the answer's no, the man behind Edward Cullen is your perfect match. The good news is Robert Pattinson is so much more than a YA heartthrob who sparkles in sunlight. To see what all the fuss is about, check out some of his other films, from the edgy modern Cosmopolis to the decadent period piece Bel Ami, and then come on over to the dark side. Very good hair awaits.

Charlie Hunnam

The Christian Grey who never was, Charlie Hunnam is the guy you should be swooning over. Yes, he really is British! We've seen him go from cute and baby-faced in Queer as Folk to the kind of guy you probably wouldn't take home to meet your parents in Sons of Anarchy. In real life, we reckon he's probably somewhere in between. But the fun is in finding out!

Jamie Dornan

Handcuffs at the ready, Jamie Dornan's the man for you! He may have less in common with Christian Grey than many women's fantasies would have us hoping, but this Northern Irish dreamboat is still worthy of your swoon. He's a former model, and it's easy to see why: those eyes tell us all we need to know!
