Oh David was lovely, wasn't he?
That cheeky, lopsided grin, and the twinkle in his eyes.

My first crush was Dirk Bogarde having no idea he was gay probably didn’t know what gay was then
Then onto
Adam Faith
Elvis Presley
Cy grant
Yul bryner
Sidney Poitier

And a bit later

Also Mel Gibson in The Year of Living Dangerously.

Seeing all the actors listed, I forgot to mention Al Pacino in The first two Godfathers.

Dirk Bogarde
Terrence Stamp
Gregory Peck
George Peppard
James Druary

Thanks everyone. I saw a few more names in your heart throbs that I also fancied, but had forgotten about (eg Donny Osmond). I got Peter Frampton ‘s group wrong - I said Thunderclap Newman, whereas I should have said The Herd. Where did I get Thunderclap Newman from?! ?

Paul Newman after seeing "Hombre" the eyes definitely have it.
Gregory Peck
William Holding
George Peppard
Mel Gibson after seeing "Bounty'
Sasha Distel.

I keep remembering them now.
Steve Marriot, Small Faces
Phil May, The Pretty Things (I think)
Robert Horton, actor

Always Gregory Peck for me.
My mum liked Russ Conway too. I think it was the wink to camera that got her.

I am another that liked Jack Jones. Had tickets fora show but he disappeared chasing after a woman he fancied. ( Susan ….?} . Also Gene Kelly when I was very young. .

John Thaw (The Sweeney days)
Telly Savalas (Kojak)
David Soul (Starsky & Hutch)
Did I have a thing for policemen ??
But, above all, Barry Sheene. Not an actor/singer I know but I was obsessed with him throughout my teenage years.

I still have a dictionary from my school days. Written all over the covers is 'I love George' I love Billy J' (Kramer). Gerry Marsden's name is also there.

Most of the above. Plus Tim Brooke-Taylor. My jotter cover was full of names with hearts round them and squirly patterns. I tried to get in as many obscure ones as possible - trying to be cool? - but I can't remember any of them now. Of course we also swooned over some of our teachers, especially the student teachers.

I used to like Captain Scarlet even though he was a puppet !

Early teen loves:
Elvis Presley (and my 6 year old granddaughter is a big fan too)
Paul McCartney
Dave Clark

Then late teens movie stars:
Paul Newman
Robert Redford
Warren Beatty
Steve McQueen
Later:
Richard Gere
Richard Chamberlain (Thorn Birds, Shogun)

Oh yes Jim Morrison! sort of Lord Byron of the day, mad, bad and dangerous to know, but very attractive and a rock star[s death at 27. Apart from him my list went Paul McCartney, Scott Engel, Davy Jones, David McCallum when he was in The Man from UNCLE, Marc Bolan, Warren Beatty after sneaking in underage into X rated Bonnie and Clyde, Bryan Ferry a bit later on, Rod Stewart, so embarrassed about that to put it kindly he is no longer my cup of tea, If he was on the tv, I'd switch off!

Marc Bolan
David Essex

My crushes were - George Harrison - that was love though
Tony Hicks from The Hollies
Peter Noone
Keith Richards
Eric Stewart from 10CC
Dave Davies from The Kinks
Billy Fury
A lot more that I can't recall.

Many of you won't remember a film about the life of Al Jolson, in which the actor Larry Parks played him. I was absolutely mad about Larry Parks for several years.
Also, for his beautiful face, the ballet dancer Rudolf Nureyev.
