Secret crushes you have had

Alana from The Girl From Tomorrow




In my defence, I was 12 at the time.

When I eventually admitted this to barakta, it turned out that she'd had exactly the same secret crush.  

More recently, less secret and altogether far more sensible, Jem Stansfield of pretty much every cool science TV programme in recent history (seriously, if he's not actually on screen, he's probably in the credits under Mad Welding Consultant or similar).  It's well documented that I have a bit of a thing for cuddly geeks...

I used to belong to the unofficial 'drool over Jenny Agutter' club but now, I quite fancy almost any woman over 45 that works as a political reporter for ITV and BBC with particular lust-preference to Daisy McAndrew.

Any woman with a smile like that and I'm at her absolute command!!

When I was 16/17 Harriet Wheeler, partly because of the red hair, partly because of her voice on Reading, Writing and Arithmetic. I went to see them at the T&C and it got cancelled because of her having a cold. By the time they rescheduled, I was going to raves, and blew out that gig to go to an Energy do, which in turn got cancelled (that story ends with me dancing onstage with Adamski and Orbital in front of 21000 people)

Around the same time, Miki Berenyi. I stole her songlist off her mic in Brighton, then saw her soon after at a "secret" Ultra Vivid Scene gig and she said hello (being 6'2 with half a foot of pillarbox red hair in a spike can get you recognised, I guess).Swoon.

[Rhys W]

Ah yes, Miki from Lush, she was well... lush. I didn't realise she was 6'2" though. 
From a similar era... whatever happened to Sonya Aurora-Madan?

I saw Suzanne Vega on BBC4 last night, and I thought - some women I fancy never mind how old they get (see: Kirsty Wark etc)

I know what you mean...... mrs. jogler springs to mind but it's not a secret

[hulver]

I've always had a bit of a thing for Prunella Scales. Which considering the age difference, is very very wrong.

Also, really inappropriate crushes on Sandi Toksvig and Sue Perkins. 

[rogerzilla]

Who saw Felicity Kendal on Strictly last night and thought, "She's 64, but..."

[Wowbagger]

Mrs. Batts, a very athletic young Biology teacher when I was in the sixth form. I had long since given up biology as an academic subject, but when I inadvertently knocked her over in a manner to give me an unrestricted, if brief, view of her stocking-tops and none-too-voluminous knickers, from that point on whenever we met in the corridor she invariably blushed and smiled. It was most becoming.

And, moreover, you knew that a biology teacher knew what to do and how to do it.

I also met her husband, who was a vet and came to operate on a neighbour's dog one cold winter's day. He recognised my sixth form scarf.

When I was 15, my Biology teacher had sex with me in a cupboard at the back of the classroom after school.

My arse hurt for weeks afterwards.

[Andrew Br]

Dot Allison.
Saw her a few times on TOTP, live at (I think) one of the V festivals and then live with Massive Attack.
She did the Liz Frazer bits of Mezzanine. I don't think that LF would have been better (and I've seen LF live with Massive Attack). Praise doesn't get any higher than that IMO.

Then I came (Fnarr, fnarr) across this "video":-

"Blissed out  ", looks gorgeous and not too young for me*. It doesn't get any better than that does it ?

* Yes, yes, too cool.

[Oaky]

Tori Amos.

[rogerzilla]

Tori Amos.

Beavis and Butt-Head hit the nail on the head there.

It would be really cool to have Tori Amos as your girlfriend, but you know that one day you'd wake up and she'd be standing over you with an axe.

The backing singer to Thomas Dolby's Hyperactive, which I have discovered in the Internet Age to be Adele Berte.

It clearly did have an impact on you, as you're repeating yourself!

Did it last longer the second time?

[Asterix, the former Gaul.]

Our biology teacher was memorable for announcing in class that 'some women like monkeys'.  Can't remember what else she taught us.

Did I ever tell you about the crush I had on or biology teacher? Just after the first world war, it was, just as the bromide was beginning to wear off.

Well, they're easier to train than men.

Ape-like, they are, and simian

Is that Thomas Dolby, or a blond Miliband we don't know about yet?

Oh damn, you left it on the bed post the week before?
