Guest Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Blimey - I'm beginning to think that the media is running a Phil's-crushes-special week... Clare Grogan has just been on R5.. what young man did NOT have a crush on Clare back then?? eh? Gregory's Girl - one to watch with the missus - as she had a crush (as all the girlies did back then) on John Gordon Sinclair... Clare even appeared in Red Dwarf! how cool was that!! (or maybe it's just girls called Clare??) Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Oh Phil ! You'll start Dan off next ! BTW, that's not a photo of Clare Grogan! That's Dee Hepburn - Wasn't she in Crossroads for a while? Slight dent to the street cred, eh ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 I agree.....that's not Clare Grogan. John Gordon Sinclair (or whatever his name is) doesn't get any easier on the eye does he? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Here's Clare... I like her... she hasn't weathered well.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 (edited) Deffo not Clare in the first piccy (who I used to be mistaken for in my youth) Here she is,way back when...... And here she is playing Kris Kochanski on Red Dwarf Talking of crushes in general,not just Phils,have any of you caught "Make me a super model" & checked out the divine surfer dude Albert?

Cate in NZ Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 I loved the film Gregory's girl, but I'm afraid it wasn't John Gordon Sinclair that did it for me, he's never really been my type, too thin and weedy for me , but I loved the gentle humour...... and the penguins Yep, in my late teens I had a major crush on penguins, still do in fact Didn't John Gordon Sinclair used to be engaged to Ruthie Henshall? I always considered her to be an attractive woman, I've got a similar hair colour, but that's where the similarity ends, not the body nor the talent, more's the pity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Yes... he did used to be engaged to Ruthie Henshall. I remember wondering how he managed to pull her. She seemed to be in a different league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 PS The girl at the top is Gregory's Girl (but I think Phil was making reference to Gregory rather than the girl). There was a clip of Gregory's Girl on telly the other night and it reminded me how attractive girls were in the early 80s with all that hairspray... Very dishy! Indeed Dan - thanks for clearing that up - me and the missus were talking about our respective crushes as the radio was on - and that's the photo I found to prove how deluded she was.... I don't know what it was about clare - probably the voice as much as anything else - and I'm a sucker for a Scots accent.. anyway - I went to find my Altered Images vinyl - only to find that it is gone... ("Ooops, word censored!"ody is owning up!! ) - so I've just downloaded just about the entire back-catalogue and I feel young again!! P PSI shan't start on my fave raves... awww... go on Dan - as long as there are no Doctor Who actresses in there... let me guess... Felicity Kendall?? I'm right aren't I!!!! My missus wouldn't let us name our daughter after Felicity!! Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cate in NZ Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Debs, I do so hope that you liked the names Juliette and Harry without any crushes to fuel the name choice There are times when reading this forum that I do find myself admiring you greatly and thinking that you seem to put up with an awful lot.

Guest Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 ahh - a Young Ones fan, Dan!! Juliette Binoche and Debbie Harry - both worthy namesakes!! (but Binoche's fame was well after my teenagedom! - she is the same aga as me, but I have obviously worn slightly less well!!) OK Dan.. what about Phillippa Forrester.. she was totally babe-ilicious - and (Omlet Folk) - she has a Phd in Chicken Management Philippa - the thinking man's totty..

Guest Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Eh....?? the missus is welsh... hence the kids are called Hywel, Emrys and Carys - welsh names that English folks have a chance of being able to pronounce.. but had we had a third boy - he would have been Teilo...
