Sports presenter Laura Woods has admitted she skips through episodes of a certain Netflix series just so she can catch glimpses of her celebrity crush.
I suppose that's one way to get your fill, though I have to point out that if you have Netflix, surely you have internet access? Wouldn't Google Images would be quicker?
While that may be the case, Laura obviously likes to see her favourite celeb in character, and Netflix is a surefire way to get that.

The presenter opened up about her crush while chatting about Anthony Joshua's revelation last month, when he admitted that Beyoncé was the star he'd most like to go on a date with.
His admission came while he was being interviewed by two children in a video on the DAZN Boxing YouTube Channel, saying: "There’s so many [to choose from]. Maybe Beyonce.”
Joshua soon changed his mind, however, as on Saturday (1 April) the boxer told talkSPORT's Breakfast show host Laura herself that she was his 'dream date'.
Speaking during an interview about his victory over Jermaine Franklin, Joshua went on to acknowledge that footballer Ruben Loftus-Cheek had recently said Laura was his celebrity crush, saying: "I know Loftus-Cheek's beaten me to it."
"It's fine, it's fine … there's no competition," Laura responded, while Joshua continued to shoot his shot by asking: "Are you taken? Are you in a relationship?"
The presenter opened up about her own dream date while chatting with Ally McCoist on the talkSPORT Breakfast show, with Ally opting for Cindy Crawford before turning his attention to Laura.
"The nation wants to know," he said.
Laura joked that her celebrity crush changes 'hourly', but explained that her most recent one came after she watched Netflix's Vikings: Valhalla.
"There is an actor called Leo Suter, he plays Harald, which is the lead character," she said.
Suter is a 29-year-old English actor who's also earned credits in Sanditon and Beecham House, though he's best known for his role of Harald Sigurdsson.
It's clearly how Laura knows the star, though she's admitted that's pretty much all she knows about the Netflix series.
"I don't know what the plot is, Ally," Laura admitted. "I've watched four episodes, I fast forward all the bits that he's not in, I've got no idea if it's a good series or not."
Suter has so far appeared in 16 episodes of Vikings: Valhalla, so Laura does still have time to figure out whether the series is a good one, but whether she'll be able to resist hitting that fast-forward button is a different question.
