Oh my God, Sheila too! Verily Dungeons and Dragons hath formed the polymorphous perversity of a generation of children.

Another vote for Eric and Sheila. Ye gods, did I actually fancy anyone 3-dimensional?

Penelope Pitstop. I'd like to torque her head, work on her body and check her oil.
Then I might look at her car.
VROOM!

Well, I'm not sure how obscure this is, but the actor Sam Neil played the lead role in a tv series called Reilly(sp?), Ace of Spies, which was showing in Australia when I was a wee lass. At the time I thought he was just the best thing since sliced bread.

And it was obscure at the time - Hugo Weaving was just a young jobbing actor when I first saw him in a production of Midsummer Nights Dream. He played Oberon. Mmmmmmm, yum, yum. Those cheek bones, that voice! Subsequently seeing him in various Australian tv series and later on movies was always a pleasure.

Oh and several of the team from Battle of the Planets. Although, I wanted to be Princess, not jump her bones.

How strange that all my initial crushes (that I can remember) were seemingly heterosexual ones.

That tasty, tasty thought will sustain me for the rest of the day. I thank you.

Dude, he had blue skin, and it was always a special episode when he woke up. He pretty much kicked ass, as well - smart, sensible and surprisingly tasty in a rumble, IIRC. If Ulysses had had him and Nestor instead of Kid Dickless and the smurf, he would've been home by Wednesday.

11:59 / 21.07.04

Mmm, yes, my right hemisphere and I share an erotic squickiness for blue skin. With me, it was early Beast...

12:07 / 21.07.04

I did have a crush on Tom Scharpling and Andy Earles.

I will probably always have a crush on Ira Glass.

pointless and uncalled for

12:15 / 21.07.04

I still have a crush on Lisa Walker which stemmed from the Casualty appearance, not the Inspector Morse episode.

Michelle Gale

13:27 / 21.07.04

Bit off topic I know, but while looking for a pic of said Mr Selleck, I discover he's a nutjob republican type i always thought he was a a lovely big huggable chap, which kind of upset me a bit...

Cherielabombe

14:44 / 21.07.04

Apple Picker, I completely agree about Ira. *sigh* He's just the most.

Here for your viewing pleasure:

Me, I've always had a nerd fetish. Some highlights:

Mr. Kotter. Mmmmm!

I always thought Eugene Levy had a certain je ne sais quoi... Is it the eyebrows?

I could go on, but I'll stop now.

And bear I remember that long distance running cheetah and she was very sexy.

And finally:

WOOOH! Ariel Schrag!

Scrubb is on a downward spiral

15:05 / 21.07.04

Neil Pearson in Between the Lines.

Cheetara.

And the entire cast of Young Sherlock Holmes .

bear - There was some cartoon when I was younger about animal olypics, I remember having a bit of thing for the long distance running Cheetah.

That would be Animalympics you're thinking of my friend. and not only was the cheetah a fine specimen but if memory serves she gave up the gold medal for the love of a Goat.

deva - The voice of the sexy female robot that Seven-Zark-Seven fancies in Battle of the Planets.

Aw the lovely Susan, how the memory works its miracles.

ganesh - Buzz Lightyear

Which goes some way to explain your fixation with the Spambot on BB5 Ganesh. Go on imagine Buzz out of uniform and you get the idea.

Personally I've always had a soft spot for Donna Matthews ex of Elastica.

And for pure filth the voice on my answer phone is a wanton temptress. The way she says "Answerphone On" as I leave the house.

Medical assistance is being sort

the lovely Susan

I have been thinking about her lately and I would like to clarify that the crush is/was caused specifically by the combination of her lovely voice and the fact that she only manifests visually as those little red/yellow flashing lights. I don't know why, I just like the little winking lights.

Spatula Clarke

Suzie Dent. Countdowntastic. Dictionarytabulous.

Nahhh, much of the appeal of Buzz, for me, is that he is his uniform...

Spambot, on the other hand, appeals to my faintly evangelical 'bringing Selfawaria to the insightless' streak - as both shrinky-dink and campsome invert.

Benny the Ball

15:56 / 27.07.04

if memory serves she gave up the gold medal for the love of a Goat.

They held hands and crossed the finishing line together, sharing the medle. That was a great film, sniff...

I always had a thing for the female Wheelie in Chorlton and the Wheelies.

Bill Posters

15:22 / 28.07.04

I still have a crush on Lisa Walker which stemmed from the Casualty appearance, not the Inspector Morse episode.

You and me both, old fellow. And just in case no one knows who we're swooning over...

Not the best picture I can find, but the rest are too large, or too topless, so it will have to suffice.

the Fool

22:58 / 28.07.04

I have a crush on Zorg's bodyguard from the Fifth Element.

The dude standing next to Tricky, the one covered mostly by the camera in the pic... Look, it was all I could find, okay?

Go watch the movie again, you'll see what I mean...

pointless and uncalled for

10:29 / 29.07.04

Thank you Bill, thank you very much.

Another wonderful heart-melting moment.

Regrettable Juvenilia

12:15 / 29.07.04

Liza Walker fans who can't trace it back to Teenage Health-Freak are just fronting.

pointless and uncalled for

12:22 / 29.07.04

Easy to trace back then, I was just stating when the crush kicked off.

No shattering like a glass jaw for me.

No star here laces

14:28 / 29.07.04

Ariel Schrag, oh god yes. And Arundhati Roy, but that ain't obscure enough.

What about:

(One for the very lame brit boys of a certain age)

Poor Dalek...

She was so STREET TOUGH. Like the Rebel MC.

pointless and uncalled for

14:45 / 29.07.04

I used to live with the person who delivered her baby.

Regrettable Juvenilia

14:49 / 29.07.04

In retrospect, all the crushes in my life have been either Liza Walker or Ace. Either the cold, cruel, sexually confident upper/upper-middle class heartbreaker or the fiesty tomboy fighting the forces of evil in a bomber jacket.

Cat Chant

14:56 / 29.07.04

One for the very lame brit boys of a certain age

And of any gender, of course. Sigh. Lovely Ace. *moons* And as far as I remember, she and the Doctor had a really nice Giles-and-Buffy genuinely-non-sexual rapport going, which is rare, of course, for a Doctor/assistant relationship...

No star here laces

00:29 / 30.07.04

Argh I know Deva I was going to correct that but editing posts is such a pain in the ass.

ONLY NICE THINGS

00:48 / 30.07.04

Ah, Ace...

I think we may have found the Barbelith mascot.

Lord Morgue

07:36 / 30.07.04

I concur! This is me concurring. (concurrs loudly) urgh. I think I have a concurrshon. Oh, Ace. Blowing my heart up with Nitro-9. I nearly spoonted when she beat up that Dalek with her baseball bat. Yes, let her join Donny Darko and Our Porgie's silver pants in the shrine of all thing Barbelicious.
