Ludmilla Tereshkova. Poetry in motion. Went to see her (an the others) at Earls Court at above the same time - and I am not a gymnastic fan!!! OOps, think I have already mentioned her?

Sue Barker was very easy on the eye circa 1976. Suzanne Dando looked gorgeous when she did Superstars. These days I can quite happily watch Jessica Ennis do anything sporty. Check out some of the US ladies footballers as well. Beats lookin at the likes of Gary Neville and Frank Ribery any day.

I don't know any modern female athletes. But I had a crush on Ludmilla Teresheva. I also thought Olga was a doll. I went to see then at Earls court in London late 60s.

Re: Fave Female Athletes/Gymnast's?

There was a female Scottish athlete called Lee McConnell that I managed to watch her doing a New Year message when I switched over to BBC Two Scotland on my Sky Digibox on New Year's Day 2011 - she was doing the annual Resolutions message for BBC Scotland while other parts of the UK got Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams doing his New Year message that I saw earlier on BBC One. Her appearance on screen was fantastic!

I wrote to the Scottish Athletics Association soon afterwards, saying that I was huge fan of McConnell and asked for an agents' address so that I could send her a picture to be autographed. They responded, my picture went in the post and came back signed a couple of weeks later - I bet that she was surprised that I was watching BBC Two Scotland as far south as the East Midlands as well!
