Nigella Lawson, Audrey Hepburn, Julie Christie.

Richard Beckinsale, young George Best, young Peter Cook.

Although they're obviously aesthetically perfect, I think they've all got something more about them.

I think that for the most part 'beautiful' and 'attractive' are different things. There are lots of people I don't 'get' that are widely regarded as beautiful. For example (seeing as there's been a lot of fuss over fashion ranges this week): I think Lily Allen is more beautiful than Kate Moss.

Yes, Richard Beckinsale? Beauty must be in the eye of the beholder! Peoples personalities change their appearance. Not literally, but subjectively. Nigella Lawsson is gorgeous, chubby, puts that with her voice, over as sensuality. It's all in the mind. You can be as attractive as you feel. Going out with someone good-looking and no personality would be very boring, and you'd start to feel they weren't good-looking.
