Minnie and Mickey.

Mickey goes to see the Divorce Attorney. Explains the problem. The lawyer says "I'm sorry, Mr Mouse, but having sticky out teeth isn't a ground for divorce in this jurisdiction".

Mickey: "I didn't say anything about her teeth. I said she's fking Goofy."

It was well creepy when Gambit was perving Purdey, which was always, but it was uber creepy when Steed started perving her in the later episodes. Dude, that's just wrong. You could be her dad.

Steed perving Mrs Peel was fine.

Chuckle Brothers!!

[anonymous-user]

Jimmy Chuckle (aged 85), least funny of the deeply unfunny Chuckle Brothers, plus latest squeeze (aged 26). Name unknown, but appears to be Matt Lucas in a fright wig. As someone said on another Forum, the old guy has that "Holy st! I'm still alive!" look on his face.

This is surely cool beyond the realms of coolth.

Joanne Woodward and Paul Newman

Question answered in the OP.

I never met PN but I was fortunate enough to have to speak to him on the phone a couple of times, as my firm did some business with one of his businesses. He was an absolute gent. A rare thing, legend with absolutely no ego. Together for 50+ years.

One of my colleagues did meet Paul & Joanna, and said they were both just wonderful people.

Eleanor of Aquitaine and Henry II of England

The problem with this couple is that Eleanor (who, I think, you cited on the coolest woman thread) badly blotted her copybook by siding with her rebellious children rather than supporting and exercising the royal authority of her husband. This made her uncool I think. Henry agreed with me too by imprisoning her for the rest of his life, more or less. Having said that, she was undoubtedly the greatest woman of her age, despite the indiscretion.
