Mr Spain
In an unprecedented fit of enthusiasm, rather than abandoning all my studies until October, I'm trying to keep up with my Spanish over the summer holidays. So far, this has mainly entailed reading Hola! online because I am a philistine and can't be bothered reading newspapers. I'm learning an awful lot about skincare and the dress style of Adrian Brody.
Much more compelling (and therefore, unsurprisingly of no language benefit whatsoever) is the voting page for Mr Spain. In case you can't be bothered going over there, I'll run you through my favourites.
I like Mister A Coruna for looking so resolutely un-Spanish (unlike the highly startled Mr Almeria).
I feel a bit sorry for Mr Badajoz, being placed next to the handsome Mr Avila, whilst looking like he would be more at home talking you through loan rates at the bank. I genuinely like the look of Mr Burgos, who looks like he's just hopped out of a Hugo Boss ad (the one with the man covered in tattoos. Hm.) whereas Mr Cordoba just looks like he's hopped out of an 80's band (possibly one of the less good-looking members of A-ha. Or Aztec Camera).
Mr Jaen looks like he's had the head of an indie singer grafted onto a much buffer body (although some of these buff bodies look a bit like they might have been painted on) and Mr La Rioja is downright menacing - he's like an evil version of the evil geek from Buffy.
Mr Las Palmas has a touch of the Jonathan Rhys Meyers about him - but again with the suspect painted on contours. Mr Malaga has swept in straight from the pages of an Anne Rice novel and poor old Mr Melilla has swept in from hosting a late night quiz show on ITV2.
Mr Palencia looks like he might have something wrong with him, so I won't mock and I don't quite know where to begin with Mr Segovia. Mr Teruel appears to have had most of his neck transplanted onto his forehead.
I can't go on - I'm becoming immune to the ill-fitting suits but I think I'll vote for Mr Madrid. He looks quite smiley.
Who would you vote for? (if you could be remotely bothered). Is there an equivalent in the UK? Is it being shown on ITV2?

Hmm tough choice, maybe Mr Las Palmas - I am shallow. (says she typing whilst plucking her eyebrows. No mean feat.)
(I up in La Smoke tomorrow handing the last of our keys back to estate agents. I can almost say I miss London.)
