Did anyone else fancy the lion thing?

Oh yes. ‘Vincent’, right? There was something about him. I remember him having a very deep, low voice which was rather sexy.... I used to love that program!

NotTheMrMenAgain · 24/02/2019 18:55

Yep Blush

LellowYedbetter · 24/02/2019 18:56

Yes! Vincent! Thank god it’s not just me. I was only a child when it was on but I think he was my first true love ❤️

The actor was Rob Pearlman. Sexy voice but definitely odd looking - even when not in beast makeup

WithAllIntenseAndPurposes · 24/02/2019 18:57

Eww no chance

itsbritneybiatches · 24/02/2019 18:57

Omg yes I remember that. What happened in the end were they together?

Was there an actual end?

BachAtTheMoon · 24/02/2019 18:59

I loved this program!! But... Hellboy was the Beast?!?!?!

itsbritneybiatches · 24/02/2019 19:00

Was he! I didn't know that. He's aged well hasn't he

ISpeakJive · 24/02/2019 19:02

I think they fell in love and then he was arrested for murder.....I think....

LellowYedbetter · 24/02/2019 19:04

I was so obsessed with him. I might have to get DH to download it from the beginning 😂

Have you just been on the growing up in the 80's Facebook page 😂

nickEcave · 24/02/2019 19:07

She had a child and then died.

LellowYedbetter · 24/02/2019 19:12

Withallintense ... no but some else posted the picture from it which reminded me 😂

itsbritneybiatches · 24/02/2019 19:39

How did she die? What happened to the child.

So over invested!

WithAllIntenseAndPurposes · 24/02/2019 19:45

Honestly lellow me and my friend were only talking about that programme today...then I saw that on Facebook and now I've seen this 😂

nickEcave · 24/02/2019 19:54

She Might have died in childbirth? Vincent took the baby back to be looked after by his people in the sewers and then went off to be griefstricken somewhere. There was a later series with another woman in it ( journalist maybe?) but I think he could only be platonic with her because he was eternally devoted to his one true love

rockingthelook · 24/02/2019 20:02

Loved this, so romantic, didn't the lady who played Sarah Connor in the Terminator films play the beauty? Vincent the Beast was styled like all the pretty male rock stars of the 80's...Jon Bon Jovi, Bret Michaels, David Coverdale et al, gorgeous

JoyceDivision · 24/02/2019 20:05

Oh yes! Ron Perlman improves with age, as Hellboy he is lush!!!

SweetSummerchild · 24/02/2019 20:10

One of the writers/producers of the series was one George R R Martin (who wrote Game of Thrones).

He originally envisioned Ron Perlman playing The Hound when he first started writing the book series.

There are lots of BatB references in A Song of Ice and Fire.

FlyingMonkeys · 24/02/2019 23:13

Yes fancied him too.

Haggisfish · 24/02/2019 23:18

God yes.

he comes from a secret place far below the city streets.

Magicstar1 · 25/02/2019 00:16

Oh I loved him...but my first love was the Incredible Hulk - only when he was green. I still have a thing for him 40 years later

keepforgettingmyusername · 25/02/2019 00:18

Looks like Voldemort crossed with the cowardly lion.
