In response to the other thread let's have couples with the best chemistry. I offer you Claire and Jaime from Outlander.

Marianne and Connell from Normal People. Particularly that scene, the morning after she drunkenly propositions him at a party.

George Clooney/Jennifer Lopez in Out of Sight.

I came on here to say that !

Glynis Barber and Michael Brandon in Dempsey and Makepeace (showing my age).

Well they've been married for decades so the real deal

I hated the show, but agree with this.

Nessa and Smithy, in the first series of G&S, all they try to hate each other

Pacey and Joey Dawson's creek, they just fit.

SnowBrussels · 08/10/2023 07:41

Kit and Bell in The Resident (Jane Leeves and Bruce Greenwood)

cuthbertthecat · 08/10/2023 07:41

Some of these surprise me (Mary and Matthew especially). Some I totally agree with (The big easy). I am watching Greys with dd at the moment and we are up to the April/Jackson season and I think they sizzle more than most. I think it may be the actor who plays Jackson though as I think he sizzles with Selina Gomez in OMITB.

Roy and Jamie in Ted Lasso.
One I know people are likely to disagree with but the queen and prince phillip when played by Claire Foy and Matt Smith.

BeBraveLittlePenguin · 08/10/2023 07:49

Stede and Blackbeard, glorious.
Hannibal and Will.
Fleabag and Hot Priest.
Gene Hunt and Alex

I did read some amazing fanfic back in the day with John and Sherlock, but actually on screen not so much.

Cybill Shepherd and Bruce Willis in Moonlighting!

I second this!

IbizaToTheNorfolkBroads · 08/10/2023 07:57

YY to Roy and Jamie

Peter Kay and Sian Gibson in CarShare

Sux2buthen · 08/10/2023 08:03

BebbanburgIsMine · 07/10/2023 22:54

Beocca and Thyra

Young Ragnar and Brida
Uhtred and Iseult

All Last Kingdom

My perfect programme. Love it

Lifeisdinky · 08/10/2023 08:14

Endeavour and Miss Thursday /Joan.

Wishimaywishimight · 08/10/2023 08:16

Rosykitten · 08/10/2023 00:46

Jonathan and Jennifer (Hart To Hart) (also showing my age!)

Oh most definitely 🙂

Also, Ally McBeal and Larry Paul (Robert Downey Junior).

Joey and Pacey in Dawson's Creek.

poorbuthappy · 08/10/2023 08:21

Elizabeth and Henry McCord in madam secretary.
Such a warm relationship

MissKittyFantastico84 · 08/10/2023 08:54

Billy and Meg in When Harry Met Sally!

A bit different because their character's personalities are so at odds, but by the end you totally believe in the love they feel for each other. One of my most rewatched films and I cry every time!

theleafandnotthetree · 08/10/2023 09:04

Elizabeth and Philip in the Americans, they became a couple in real life quite early into filming of course. But she is just very hot anyway, she seems to have chemistry with every male she acts opposite.

Agree re Matt Smith and Claire Foy in The Crown and Alison and Noah in The Affair.

Connell and Maryanne in Normal People had probably the most natural chemistry I've ever seen portrayed on screen, they are like liquid around one another.

Abbie and Kovac in ER

Whatwouldscullydo · 08/10/2023 09:11

Murder and scully ( obviously 🤣)

Liz and max - roswell

Er- neela and gates, abby and kovac

House - chase and the nun

Buffy and angel - the pain of not being able to be with the one you love is all to familiar for most of us and by god they did a good job of making you feel it.

JesusHRooseveltChristSassenach · 08/10/2023 02:56

Jamie and Claire were immediately in my head after reading the title!

Stef and Lena in The Fosters

Definitely Kate and Anthony in Bridgerton. That season gave me blue balls!

I immediately thought of Jamie and Claire too, and you reminded me of an old username name that I haven't used for a while 😁

Joey and Pacey in Dawson's Creek.

Yes to Ally McBeal and RDJ!!

I don't care how good he is in Iron Man, I have never forgiven him for getting jailed for drug offences and denying me (and Ally!) the happy ending the writers had originally planned 😡

kazzaD66 · 08/10/2023 10:44

Agree, Ally McBeal and RDJ.

And Abbie and Kovac.

More recently, Ben Lloyd-Hughes and Rose Williams as Alexander Colbourne and Charlotte Heywood in Sanditon.

Wishimaywishimight · 08/10/2023 10:53

@ChCheesyBeanos The entire series went downhill after he left, I blame him for all of it 😄

DisplayPurposesOnly · 08/10/2023 11:13

Grosse Pointe Blank - John Cusack and Minnie Driver
The Addams Family - Anjelica Houston and Raul Julia

MissBattleaxe · 08/10/2023 11:16

Robin and Strike. Wow!

RicherThanYews · 08/10/2023 11:23

Niles and Daphne.

CandidaAlbicans2 · 08/10/2023 11:37

When I first read "smoking chemistry" I took it literally and immediately thought of this photo from Girl With The Dragon Tatoo! 😆
