From the looks of it, I would say he got a bit of an arousal from that scene. And why wouldn't he???

Too bad they didn't have high-def TV when that was shot. I thought he was slightly aroused or just well hung, couldn't tell here.

Was this what you were thinking of ? http://www.mensswimsuitboard.com/for...mercial+speedo

the name "Peter Richards" for Sue Ellen's young camp counselor lover in Dallas was a hilarious choice for a name of a guy wandering around the set with a hard-on while wearing a tight blue Speedo. But why "Richards" as a last name? Think about it for a moment...

From 1961. Some males within the audience are comfortable in wearing Speedo style swimwear.

Thank you, Sebbie, for sharing the Dallas clips with Chris Atkins - damn he was a stunningly handsome young man (which was also obvious from his Blue Lagoon role).
