I preferred Starskey

Bodie and Doyle,

I preferred Bodie, although still struggle to remember who was who, I preferred Lewis Collins,

any other pairings?

Starsky all the way, Hutch was too wet a character.

And Regan rather than Carter in the Sweeney.

Neither Bodie or Doyle for some reason.

Romeiswheretheheartis · 15/01/2023 09:53

Starskey for me too. Can still picture the poster I had of him in his knitted jacket!

Consufed · 15/01/2023 10:07

I didn't watch it, but I do remember being asked this in the playground from time to time, a few decades ago. I always said Starsky because I liked the sound of the name Grin

I've never seen S&H. Between Bodie and Doyle - Doyle, but only just: they were both great. That was such a wonderfully camp show. I'm convinced Bodie and Doyle were deeply in love with each other.

Starskey was hot! Didn't fancy Martin Shaw at the time but as Judge John Deed?...swoon😂

LlynTegid · 15/01/2023 10:16

Starsky.

I remember David Soul went campaigning for Martin Bell when he stood for parliament, and the sheer joy/surprise of some when he knocked on their door.

Snailsaresweet · 15/01/2023 10:17

Starsky all the way. Poster on wall, yearned for big chunky cardi.

Bodie was Martin Shaw, who's gone on to have a v succesful career, and was also my fave...

Time40 · 15/01/2023 10:18

Bodie was Martin Shaw

Martin Shaw was Doyle.

Hutch and Bodie

I’ve changed to Starsky in my later years..

joongkivincenzo · 15/01/2023 10:20

I liked the dark haired one best and couldn't remember if he was starsky or hutch.

So starsky for me also.

MadeOfSteel · 15/01/2023 10:20

I had crushes on David Soul and Lewis Collins, so you can guess my answer!

HPLikecraft · 15/01/2023 10:20

I seem to be in a minority here - my preference is Hutch and Bodie!

HPLikecraft · 15/01/2023 10:21

ha, crosspost... seems I'm not alone after all 🙂

RudsyFarmer · 15/01/2023 10:22

I had a thing about blondes growing up. So the blonde one 🤭

BestIsWest · 15/01/2023 10:23

Hutch (but I knitted a Starsky Cardi for my dad).
Still have the David Soul LP somewhere.

Same...

BringBackCoffeeCreams · 15/01/2023 10:24

Crocket or Tubbs?

Tamarindtree · 15/01/2023 10:27

Thw sing might be seen as cheesy now but he had a beautiful voice and was a lovely looking man.

What is lovely that the two have remained friends.

Tamarindtree · 15/01/2023 10:27

The song

JanusTheFirst · 15/01/2023 10:29

Starsky for me - knitted DH a cardi like his when he was just a boyfriend.

And Bodie

And Hathaway not Lewis

MrsElijahMikaelson1 · 15/01/2023 10:29

Hutch
Doyle
Crockett

DashingWhiteSergeant · 15/01/2023 10:29

Starsky, I too had the poster. And Doyle, Bodie was too busy being in love with himself to bother with me!
