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 Blush.

Donny Osmond was my first love, then I moved swiftly on to John Travolta when I saw Grease.
I also had a crush on the older brother in ET and even begged my mum to buy me a space invaders t shirt because he had one Blush
In the early 80s, naturally I was obsessed with Adam Ant (who wasn't?) and also had a thing for Merrick (the tall drummer).
I also appreciated the sheer beauty of John Taylor from Duran Duran (my sister sobbed when he snogged someone in the Hungry Like the Wolf video!) but I fancied Andy Taylor.
I also remember fancying Starsky, especially when he wore that big chunky cardigan.

Chesney Hawkes
Karen Allen in Raiders of the Lost Ark
And Perseus in the Clash of the Titans with Ursula Andress, I can't remember his name! (I was far too young but thought he was lovely)

I fancied Starsky too but felt a bit odd about because my uncle looked a bit like him Hmm
Jim Rockford from the Rockford Files.

DameDoom · 28/05/2018 19:29

Jim Rockford was a proper dish - no wonder I didn't fancy him when I had no taste.
Just googled Leif - not as I remembered.

My first ever crush was Michael J Fox, this was in the very early noughties after I'd discovered Back to the future. I even found his picture in a TV guide and put it in a frame Confused

52FestiveRoad · 28/05/2018 19:34

My first ever crush was Karl Foreman from the Flash adverts. I think he was in a programme called Different Strokes?

Do you mean Karl Howman from Brush Strokes?

I fancied the grizzled ginger cop with the knackered eyes off The Bill as well

zomg. If you mean the scouse detective (Boulton??), I had a huge crush on him too. I was gutted when he was killed off (to the amusement of my best friend..)!
