Top Five Cowboys
Or 'cowpokes' to those who know
YOSEMITE SAM
Big ‘stache, little legs and a barrel of catch phrases including, “Say yer prayers, varmint!”
WOODY FROM TOY STORY
Tom Hanks is basically the guy we all would want as president in 2020. And Woody was my son’s fave toy growing up. In fact, when he went to work in the USA this summer my missus sneaked his battered Woody into his suitcase. He’s 21, but who cares.
DESPERATE DAN
Why Cow pie is not on the menu at some smokehouse in Hackney Wick, I don’t know. For fuck’s sake Dan shaved using a blow torch, he was that tough.
TEDDY FLOOD OFF WESTWORLD
Good-looking dude who gets the girls and dies a hero’s death on a nightly basis. Westworld is the best thing on TV right now, bringing up topics that in a decade or two could change everything. Until then he remains our current fave TV cowboy.
MCCLOUD
A TexaN cowboy cop on loan to the 1970s New York police department. To be honest it was his clobber that won the show – think Son Of Stag meets Glen Campbell.
