Pros Slash Proliferation Challenge, Day Three

[przed]

Sure Bodie and Doyle are gorgeous men, but let's take a look at when they're really gorgeous, shall we?


For my money, Doyle never looked better than he did in Fugitive. First, there's the pan across the prison yard to reveal him lounging against the fence...


Then later, in the interrogation room we get this vision. I reckon this picture is single-handedly responsible for all those stories where Doyle is described as looking like a Botticelli angel. Because he totally does.


On the other hand, I rather like Bodie when he's a bit on the scruffy side. And he was never scruffier than he got in Takeaway.


I know it's wrong, but there's nothing hotter looking than a guy smoking a cigarette. If he knows what to do with it. And Bodie so does.


That hint of barely leashed violence he can so easily convey doesn't go amiss either.


And just for fun, and to make it equitable, one shot of Doyle looking a bit scruffy from It's Only a Beautiful Picture.

Love Doyle in that maroon shirt. I can see playtime for me coming up. Thanks for posting.

Doyle really is beautiful. I think he really came into his own as he matured. I didn't really like him in the beginning of the first series, but now.....well.

You have chosen well - Bodie scruffy is lovely too.

Oooo, yum, thank you. Beautiful Doyle and I do adore Bodie in Takeaway, all scruffy and dirty and dangerous looking. Interestingly, I never think of that being a cigarette that he's smoking. From the first time I saw that ep, it was a joint, and my opinion hasn't changed.

Yes, smoking is a bit conflictive for me too .... I want them to take good care of those bodies, but it can look so damn sexy. So I suppose B or D could smoke, as long as LC and MS don't! The one where Bodie is just lighting up makes him look very - this is silly, I actually feel slightly odd writing this because it's not my usual register, but there's just no other word for it; it makes him look very, very fuckable. And Doyle's just the man to do it ....

Stunning again. Scruffy Bodie is just totally *rowr* for me.

(have snagged the pics again, ta muchly. Once i get my computer sorted and can grabs caps from my own remastered DVDs I wont need to steal, but until then, thanks!)

Oh, this Proliferation business is going to kill me. I can't get the lads out of my head! There's something about seeing photos in isolation.... Gorgeous Doyle here. Absolutely. (And there was one scene I saw in "An Ideal Husband" when MS was looking down...and the lighting was such...oh it was that look! *g*) And Bodie! Oh, all menace and barely leashed violence. Yes. I love scruffy Bodie. Thank you!

First off--you were posting at 2:30 in the morning?! Good grief, woman. Secondly, you picked some =lovely= shots. For me, Bodie is at his sexiness in Takeaway. It's a shame he and Ray aren't together more than they are.

I was reading through some of the other comments, and it seems like some folks like MS with the looser, wavier hair of later episodes. For me, I love him in Runner or In the Public Interest or Man Without a Past. My archetypal Ray Doyle is scruffy; has his shirt open a couple buttons more than the average bloke; is wearing jeans a size too small, boots and a leather jacket; perhaps a discreet chain or two and has a mass of curly hair (but not the poodle do from Fall Girl).

I'm a girl who knows what I like. ;-)

Oh nice... I read something recently where LC was saying that on the first day of filming MS came in wearing jeans, scruffy jacket and with curled hair after being told definitely not to, which meant that he, Lew, got stuck with the "clotheshorse" look... though I wonder which first day of shooting - first with Andrews, or first with Lew? Anyway - so maybe MS kind of relaxed and became more himself as the series went on... and LC too, cos I read somewhere else that they chose their own clothes, so... Well, whatever they did, nice pics!

And my vote is for joint too - it never occured to me that it was anything else...*g*

The lads are always incredible gorgeous !
