Dirk! I loved W&W and Dirk was, of course, my absolute favorite character. So cool, so dark. So much leather.
Several years after this was on, I watched (and still do; I adore the cheesiness of it) "The Last Days of Pompeii" and was pleasantly surprised to find out just how much of those broad shoulders was really him, not just the Shoulder Pads of Doom.
There's a short story by someone named A.J. Potter in a gay short story fantasy collection call Swords of the Rainbow which strangely, weirdly reminded me of W&W. It's called "Birthmarked" and in it, the valiant hero prince, Keir (who is described as being quite handsome from a distance), goes to see his once-friend, now enemy, Duncan Vaughn (who is Eeeeee-vil), to negotiate a peace. And ends up sleeping with him instead.
