I watched lots of cowboy films with my dad when I was young and along with the stars already mentioned, I’d like to mention Audie Murphy

If we’re doing David Essex (and frankly who wouldn’t) I think we should also do Peter Gabriel.

Such a sexy voice too. He looks a bit like Gary Numan there.

A young Jeremy Brett.
My sister and I were OBSESSED with him in My Fair Lady and couldn’t understand how Eliza could turn him down for Professor Higgins!

Oh Rosa, thank you. Marc was my first love and my bedroom walls were covered in posters of him. Ride a White Swan!

He was gorgeous and my second love 😍

How could I forget Tom?? Lifelong crush there.

Show quote history

I felt the same but his politics are a real turn off for me.

He'd have to promise me 'beforehand' that he'd keep silent and then leave 'afterwards'.😂

Wilfred Brambell

Edit to spell gorgeous Wilfred’s surname correctly.

Edited

😄 Was about to say everyone looks gorgeous in black and white......oh well....

I saw Spellbound recently at the cinema and Gregory Peck was luminous!

She was stunning... Love her films... Particularly High Society. She actually wore her engagement ring from Prince Rainier in the film!!

Show quote history

I love her outfits in Rear Window where she plays a fashion editor.

Rita Hayworth. I would have liked to post her famous hair flip from Gilda but can't seem to attach the gif.

He was brilliant in The Philadelphia Story. He has such a twinkle in his eye and a light touch delivering a comic line with perfect timing.
