People you really used to fancy in the olden days

I was bloody obsessed with Barry Gibb, Dave from Shawaddywaddy, Alvin Stardust and later Richard Clayderman the wet pianist.
To be fair, I still fancy Barry .

God yes to Terence Stamp!
David Essex

I can't believe I forgot Tim Curry. A PP mentioned Gene Wilder, I remember having a thing for him too, it's the voice I think.
From studying To Kill a Mockingbird and McBeth at GCSE I developed crushes on Gregory Peck and Jon Finch . I also remember fancying Hywel Bennett.
A bit later on I liked Reece Shearsmith, two of my exes looked a bit like him funnily enough.

Gregory Peck -yes I still have a crush on him.

Craig McLachlan (Henry from Neighbours). Fancy him evern more now as Dr Blake.

Pete Duel
I had this poster on my bedroom wall along with many others . I was obsessed
A tragic death ..

Adam Carrington (Gordon Thompson).... the vvvvv attractive rapist/murderer son of Blake & Alexis

Harrison Ford as Han Solo then Indiana Jones.
The Lost Boys, obsessed with that film!
Michael H from INXS. Proper first time fanny gallops, he was sex on legs. RIP.
Peter Gabriel around the SO/Sledgehammer era.

Well, Lewis Collins owned my heart, but from time to time I'd lend it out to middle-aged newsreaders. Mainly Gordon Honeycombe and Leonard Parkin, then Alistair Stewart.

I was an odd teenager.

It all started at about 8/9 with Wicksy from eastenders....

Loved Jason Donovan and Matt Goss around that time too.

As a teen it was Mark Owen, Robbie Williams, Edward Furlong, Rik Mayall, Damon Albarn, Brian Harvey, Chad Allen, Paul Nicholls, John Alford, David Beckham, Patrick Berger, plus I’m sure many more will come to mind!

Oh yes, Kordan Knight and Kurt Kobain too!

Bloody Jordan Knight!!!! Getting in a cluster with my K’s

Jason Priestley too. Especially in that Roy Orbison music vid

Bodie
Buck Rogers
Roger Moore
Dempsey off Dempsey & Makepeace (though even my 7 year old self could sense he was a nobber)
John Thaw
Gareth Hunt
James Hunt
Alain Delon
John le Mesurier

BITD you would have to wait for a movie, or your fave TV series to be aired. Or maybe an unexpected picture to appear in the Radio or TV times. No box sets or internet to indulge your fandom.

Rednails, yes! How could I forget. No one sexier than Peter Gabriel and Michael Hutchence.

Here's an EXTRAORDINARILY embarrassing one... for a brief period, I had a crush on Clark Datchler from Johnny Hates Jazz

I've got my old school girl 80s diaries and everyone I used to fancy was written in the back.. Michael Nader (Dex Dexter from Dynasty? Colbys?) appears quite a few times

Paul Nicholls when he played Joe in Eastenders was just perfect...
