Confession time. I have to admit that despite his perceived "naffness", I have always loved David Soul - who celebrates (gulp!) his 70th birthday today - for his classic 1970s music as much as groinage.
Guilty pleasures, I suppose, but these two alone are great songs...
Facts about Mr Soul:
- He was the UK's best selling artist in 1977, and Starsky and Hutch was one of the most popular police drama series of the decade.
- David has been married five times and has five sons and a daughter.
- He starred (in French) with Anne Giraudau and Line Renaud in the television miniseries Les Filles du Lido in 1995.
- As well as playing the original lead in Jerry Springer The Opera, he also starred in the West End revival of Mack and Mabel.
- In September 2004, David became a UK citizen.

They made such a lovely couple in Starsky and Hutch. I never missed an episode.
