There was a time when Crush was embarrassed to admit we fancied his alter ego Ali G. Oh, he was a big ironic joke, we know obviously, but the goatee and wraparound shades genuinely suited the guy — they did! Sure, it was harder to see the appeal in Borat and Brüno, but it made the fact that beneath the wacky characters there was a tall, handsome man, with great hair and some serious features, all the more titillating. He may not be a Ryan Gosling dreamboat, but Mr BC is the man you want to be sat next to at a Stoke Newington dinner party — he’d flirt just the right amount, make you snort with laughter and tell you all about his new film The Lesbian (based on the story of the Hong Kong billionaire who offered £42 million to the man who could turn his daughter straight), which is one of Crush’s top three conversation topics of 2013. We know Sach is a catch because he bagged a babe: Isla Fisher gets to have all the fun, especially when her sexy, hirsute funnyman gets that Borat mankini out, again.
