* HilariousInHindsight:
** Nine years after the release of this movie, Creator/CharlesDance portrays Creator/JamesMcAvoy's father in ''Film/VictorFrankenstein''. Considering that Brian Jackson has accidentally seen Michael Harbinson ''stark naked'', it's quite understandable that the elder Frankenstein is resentful towards his son.
** Also in ''Film/VictorFrankenstein'', Creator/MarkGatiss is an engineer who reluctantly works with Victor, and his distaste for the student probably stems from knowing that Brian is a [[spoiler:cheater]].
** Creator/BenedictCumberbatch is insistent that he is "the [[Radio/CabinPressure CAPTAIN]]" of the University Challenge team.
** Creator/JamesMcAvoy once again plays a naïve, '80s-era, mullet-haired academic who is head-over-heels for a beautiful woman in ''Film/XMenApocalypse''. This [[http://intowhiteness.tumblr.com/post/135049863812/i-see-no-lies Tumblr post]] pokes fun at the strong resemblance between Brian Jackson and Professor X.

Due to massive misuse zero context examples and questionable examples for this trope are being purged.This deals with cases where a character is visibly old and is still portrayed as attractive. If this examples fits the trope then re-add with context making those two points explicitly clear. Do not confuse this trope for Hollywood Old, Older Than They Look, or Really Seven Hundred Years Old. Do not use this trope for personal or fan\'s opinions about a character\'s attractiveness.
