Richard Armitage. His voice has been compared to melted chocolate. Deep, smooth, delicious. He's not a huge celebrity here in America...yet...but folks might recognize him if they're familiar with BBC shows that he's been in: Vicar of Dibley, Robin Hood, MI:5 (Spooks, in England). He's also landed a couple of movies, including roles the upcoming "Captain America" and "Hobbit".
Here's a sample of him, reading the Ted Hughes poem, "Song": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqrUnafoR30
Patrick Stewart or Alan Rickman. They are my celebrity crushes, because they have such sexy accents and voices. Mind you, I'm youngish (25) so it's a little weird having a celebrity crush on someone so much older.
TruthRowan... I second your nominations of Patrick Stewart and Alan Rickman. I haven't seen Rickman in anything that I haven't absolutely loved. 'Course, I put both of them below Richard Armitage on the list.
