10. When UNCLE for started I had hero worship for Ilya but then I turned 12.

He was cute.

8. Isn't he Irish???

9. We used to play "Man from UNCLE" in the back yard.

I loved that show!

[texanwitch]

11. I had all the UNCLE stuff including the guns.

I had blond hair.

I was 9 or 10 when UNCLE started so I was always Illya when we were playing.

17. Actually, Napoleon Solo was my favorite.

I was around that age too, and my girlfriend and I would be running around in my back yard, jumping off the back porch, going over the fence as we played Man from UNCLE.

[Silver Swan]

13. I liked Man from U.N.C.L.E., but Ilya and I are both older now.

If you want the current version of McCallum, watch NCIS. He plays Dr. Mallard.

[Sequoia]

14. He made me what to date him.

But I was in grade school. The shiny Russian boy.

[kwassa]

15. That was the TV show that our family would watch together every week.

Nobody wanted to be Robert Vaughn. Only Ilya.

16. I had such a crush on him when I was a little girl. Thanks for the

memory.:)
