British actor Daniel Ings has been making a name for himself over the past couple of years thanks to showy roles in Guy Ritchie's The Gentlemen series (which was where I had my "Who the hell is he???" moment) and then as the party-loving Ser Lyonel Barotheon on A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms (which is where I think most other people had that moment). Or amybe you know him from Sex Education? (I never watched that show.) But as eye-catching and entertaining as he was on those series I have to admit I am suddenly, now that I stumbled upon these gifs, longing for a return to THIS LOOK which he was rocking circa 2020 on the British series I Hate Suzie opposite Billie Piper. Bring back the bear, Daniel! The bear, the beard, the all of it. Woof! I actually tried to watch IHS over the pandemic but it didn't land with me so I gave up after a couple of episodes -- now I sure feel the fool. Just look what I missed out on!

Oh, I remember him...
Wasn't this guy in 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms'?
R.I.F.
Sex Education was a lot of fun
I actually did watch some of Sex Education and I did enjoy it - I don't know why I didn't keep up with it. (That scene where Connor Swindells has a boner that won't go down is permanently burned into my brain.)
I really loved Daniel playing husband to Alan Cumming in Instinct-2018-2019. What a good fun show. It was something different and of course it was not a hit out of the gate so it only lasted 23 episodes. I just loved it when Daniel came on the screen. He was the partner who grounded Alan. Oh yes, Whoopi was in the show as a literary agent. The showrunners tried to trout out the hunk card with Travis Van Winkle. Come on. Now we love some Travis but we have done that trope before. Let's be a little more creative.
He’s also starring in the adaptation of PRIMA FACIE with Cynthia Erivo, Noma Dumezweni, Toheeb Jimoh, Harry Treadaway and Simon Russell Beale
I fell for him in "Lovesick" opposite the equally hot Johnny Flynn (in a very different way). Always a pleasure.
