Jeremy Clarkson has been named the UK's sexiest man for the second year in a row.

The 64-year-old presenter - known for his work on shows like 'Clarkson's Farm', 'The Grand Tour' and 'Top Gear' - has once again been crowned the winner, despite facing competition from the likes of Idris Elba, Cillian Murphy and Prince William.

According to the annual poll from IllicitEncounters - which is billed as the "best online dating site for married people" - Jeremy scored nine out of 10 points.

'Spider-Man' star Tom Holland, 27, also appeared in the top 10, although he has had to settle for second place.

Prince William, 41, rounded out the top three, with the Sexiest Man poll voting on by 2,000 of the dating site's female members.

To find the rankings, the women are tasked with scoring a list of 50 of the past year's most famous and culturally revelant men from most to least 'sexy', and each name was then given a score from one to 10.

Jessica Leoni, a spokesperson for Illicitencounters.com, said: "Clarkson and his farm is a bit like Noah's ark and just like the animal's in that story, his victory in the Sexiest Man vote has come in twos.

"We all know about his brash persona, but the latest series of Diddly Squat has shown he can tug at heartstrings too - and clearly his famer look continues to set hearts racing.

"Just like last year's poll, we knew providing our members with a list of 50 famous names across both genders and asking them to score them on their 'sexiness' would throw up some surprises - we're not putting it past Clarkson to go for the three-peat next year!"

Elsewhere in the rankings, England boss Gareth Southgate, 53, was in fourth place, with Cillian Murphy following in fifth, while the likes of Mike Tindall and Ryan Reynolds fell out of the top five to 29th and 26th respectively.
