Nominated by our excellent contributor, Edmund Wise, Neville Morley is apparently attractive to both sexes as he performs Alan Partridge impressions in class. He’s ‘charismatic, funny, [a] classics cult of personality’ and has ‘sarcastic charm’.

One female source said of Saha: ‘I fancy Saha [be]cause he is so intelligent, very cool, young and quite good looking’.

4) Dr Luis Correia – Economics

Number-crunching economics lecturer, Dr Luis Correia, is anticipated to become Portugal’s future Prime Minister, replacing Pedro Passos Coelho, later this year. One source suggested he is so hard working that many female students actually want to leave their number for ‘extra help’, whatever form that would take.

5) Mr James McFarthing – Modern Languages

McFarthing is the star of the Modern Foreign Languages department. 

6) Dr Diego Acosta Arcarazo – Law

This cheeky lawyer is a favourite with the Law girls.

7) Dr Richard Pettigrew – Philosophy

Richard is known to command the attention of the same 20 girls who surround him to ‘ask questions’ before each lecture. It would be embarrassing but somehow it’s not.

8) Dr Will Atkinson – Sociology

Our source, who could not be named for legal reasons, said: ‘Tarzan-like Will Atkinson is the star of Sociology. He’s tall, with a beautiful Cumbrian accent and enormous biceps’.

9) Professor Daniel Karlin – English Literature

When asked about why he was so popular, our source said ‘I dunno, he’s just insanely intelligent, quick-witted and funny and did really well in the lecturer’s moot’.
