People you really used to fancy in the olden days

[DameDoom]

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 .

Another one for Keanu here.

And Ryan Giggs, also mentioned a few times.

Christian Slater too

More controversially Howard Donald at one stage.

"Oh Johnny Depp. Where did you go?"

To the liquor store. Far, far too many times.

@JoffreyBaratheon I thought for a moment you meant Alastair Campbell!

Peter Bowles 😝

Villageshop sorry I put the wrong name in that post, was meant for Icedpurple..I 'll take a photo of the Chris Norman fridge magnet for you!

So many crushes I had forgotten have now been revived by this thread 😆
1970’s: Pottsy (Happy Days), Alan Alda, Lee Majors, Robin Williams
1980’s: George Michael (beautiful eyes, gorgeous smile & a stunning voice), Paul Young, Morten Harket (DH is spitting image of him 😊), Nick Rhodes, Wicksy in EE,
90’s: Leonardo DiCaprio, Lenny Kravitz, Kurt Cobain, Dave Grohl, Tim Booth, Hugh Grant, Julia Roberts, Kristen Scott Thomas, Jarvis, lead singer of the Cardigans (cannot remember her name at all now ), Matthew Perry (an ongoing crush).

"lead singer of the Cardigans (cannot remember her name at all now"

Was that Nina Persson? Trying to remember my Scindie band people names now.

Of course, we could always google...

Oh, yes To Kristen Scott Thomas. Also Juliet Binoche and Alan Rickman.

Tony Slattery and Josie Lawrence from Whose Line is it anyway.

I also had crushes on historical figures. I think most of my A-level history class were smitten with Michael Collins.

John Taylor (and 37+ years after first clapping eyes on him - and meeting him a few times - the crush is ongoing and I still would)

Ade Edmondson (since The Young Ones, still also very much ongoing)

Jack Nicholson

Luke Perry

Matthew Perry

Mortified to admit it - but I had a massive crush on Shaking Stevens and Jimmy Nail when he was in Spender

Oh yes, Ade Edmondson when he had hair. Rick Mayall, too, naturally. I think I first saw them on the first night of Channel 4 on the Comic Strip Presents, but then watched everything they were in.

Re. Hugh Grant he did nothing for me when he was younger but I like him now, and for about the past 10 years. Most peculiar. Although he isn't entirely sexy as Jeremy Thorpe but he has made me laugh so much. Which is probably wrong, given what that drama is about...

Micheal Praed as Robin Hood

He is, and always will be, my number 1. 💕😍😘

Nothing’s forgotten, nothing’s ever forgotten

@JoffreyBaratheon I didn't fancy Hugh in 4 Weddings but as Daniel in the first Bridget Jones film? Oh yes please!

Lilacwine, you lucky thing! He was lovely in Arthur Of The Britains!

Ziggy Greaves - Grange Hill ❤️

Tony Slattery on Who’s Line is it Anyway? how did I forget him on my list!!

I completely forget my first love.

Face from the A Team.

Tommy Steele

@Hygge Same, and I've shaken his hand!

@QueenOfTheAndals - you're so lucky.

Was he just as lovely as you hoped he would be?

He had aged very well, I remember thinking that I probably still would!

The guy that played John in the Tomorrow People!

Very pleased to see Jason Priestley is still very fine indeed.

In my best 90's ladette voice, 'fwwwooaah'

Oh and the blonde Mancunian bloke from The Bill, the one that used to drive the cars...Tom someone or other.

Oh I had no shame.
