This is a question Teenage Crushes - Part Two

Freddie Woo writes: I've still got weird feelings for a well-known female TV presenter from the 1980s. I'm now in my forties, work in the same building as her and she follows me on a number of social networking sites. And now, she knows about it.

Tell us about the teenage crushes that still make you go wobbly.

I fancied baddies
1. David Bowie in the Labyrinth regardless of the strictly ballroom (ahem) tights and Pat Sharpe hair. I used to scream at the telly when he offers to be her slave and she says 'you have no power over me'. What the fook? How about "yes please, now sing Let's Dance and do the walky upside-down on the ceiling thing."

2. The character Silverthorn in an Aussie TV show called 'The Girl From Tomorrow', which nobody else appears to have seen. It's possible I imagined it.

3. Alan Rickman as the Sheriff or Nottingham in that Godawful Robin Hood Prince of Thieves business. Bear in mind I really was very young, about 11 I guess, but his manly voice, dark hair, swishy cloak and implied sexual debauchery floated my pubescent boat.

4. Evil Ted in Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey. Again, he tries it on with one of 'the babes' and she just squeals a bit and shoves him off. Even at the tender age of whatever I was, he would've got it. Whatever 'it' was. I probably thought 'it' was a Panda Pop and a grope, mind you.

Yeah, just looked it up on t'internet and it definitely existed. And Silverthorn was definitely an evil hottie.

Bowie do you have one really funky sequined space suit, Bowie? Or do you have several ch-ch-ch-changes?
Was it the tights? Was it the make up and wig? Was it the agility with which he lightly juggled his balls.

Even now I feel all tingly at the thought of him and have always wanted to attend that debauched looking masked ball.....

I think his ball fondling played a part but mostly it was the slightly disapproving look, wonky teeth and saucy intentions towards the Sarah. I wanted to be his dance partner at the ball.

While we're on the matter
Can we perhaps chuck Lucius Malfoy (not the actor. The character) into our Saturday night mix? I know he looks a bit like Vanessa Phelps but he's so damn plummy and evil…
Phwoar.
Just thought I'd chuck that out there and see where it lands...

Pants, magic pants!
I never saw Labyrinth till I was a student (Stalker Girl sat me down and said "watch this" and then pointed at the Bowie's crotch constantly for two hours). I would have happily had him do my bidding for the rest of time...

I've never got the Alan Rickman thing. Snape gives me Teh Fear.

Count Crotchula
I know! How the hell they decided those natty leggings would make suitable children's TV I do not know. Even my mum was embarrassed to watch the film with me.
