Dearest Anons,

In five days (on May 8, 2011) this meme will have existed for a whole year.

I was watching some Spitting Image recently and I realized that

a) I'd forgotten the extent to which Owen/Steel was explicitly text, and
b) I need moar

Anyone up for some vintage Lib Dems? Either SI!David^2 with their size difference and abusive relationship, or RL!David^2 with their... slightly less pronounced size difference and abusive relationship.

(I would be okay with reconciliation fic, too, set after both their political ambitions have failed miserably and they realize all they had left was each other.)

I know this was prompted ages ago but PLEASE

They're really slashy IRL too. Look at this proposal of marriage and David Steel saying, I quote, "I don't propose to conduct a love in with Doctor Owen on this programme..."

What. What. WHAT.

RL!Davids, how are you basically identical to your Spitting Image versions?

Look at David Steel making eyes at him! And David Owen's look of contempt. XD

What is this.

SECONDED SECONDED SECONDED SECONDED.

Here they are on a romantic camping trip in SI:

How can you not ship them, meme? Steel is more masochistic than Mandelson and Gove combined.

David Steel with little yellow bucket on his head ;A;

...Fuck it, I'm writing it. They're both pretty attractive and a cookie cutter uke/seme relationship if I've ever seen one.

OP says you are a hero, anon. I wish I could find that SI clip where they're in bed together talking about the name for the merged party- that one was epic.

Watch all of Spitting Image. There are some brilliant things like this one (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0yvda9Ek49Y) "Oh, hurt me!" *needs fic*
