Ok I'm probably on my own with this one. I have no idea what attracted my 6 year old self to a bald, short suit wearing mouse. Penfold wasn't even cool, he was Dangermouse's sidekick and voice of reason. I have no idea why Dangermouse even wanted to hang out with Penfold because he was a bit of a loser, really posh and kind of boring. And yet, I would imagine being married to Penfold, watching him put his little pants in his pant press at home each night before burrowing into bed next to me (no joke) Hmm... I have no idea to this day why I had such a crush on this little guy....

The Sheriff Of Nottingham

Was Maid Marion INSANE?? How can you fancy Kevin Costners LAAAAAME Robin of Loxley over The Sheriff of Nottingham? I remember going to see Robin Hood Prince Of Thieves at the cinema with my parents and literally passing out every time I saw Alan Rickman, clad in black studded leather, leaping around in thigh high boots and being a perverted bad ass. I spent the next few months blissfully daydreaming about being kidnapped by The Sheriff of Nottingham and developing a serious case of Stockholm syndrome. I didnt fancy Alan Rickman again until he played Professor Snape in Harry Potter, I hated him in 'Love Actually.'
