Lindsay Wagner has taken a very rare photo with Lee Majors.

The two were side-by-side while at the fan event Central Carolina Comic Con in an image she shared to Instagram this week.

Wagner, 76, starred on the Bionic Woman and Majors, 86, was on The Six Million Dollar Man.

Often their characters Jaime Sommers and Steve Austin appeared on each other's 1970s shows as they were romantically linked. The Bionic Woman was a spin-off from the Six Million Dollar Man.

In real life, Majors was famously married to Charlie's Angels actress Farrah Fawcett who died in 2009

'A few moments from Central Carolina Comic Con earlier this month. @centralcarolinacomiccon #bionicwoman,' wrote the blonde as she looked youthful in a yellow sweater with glasses on.

Majors wore a black top and a cap as he smiled for the camera.

She recently celebrated the 50 year anniversary of her show Bionic Woman.

'Today is the day — Happy 50th Anniversary to The Bionic Woman!' she wrote on her Instagram account on Wednesday.

She said in a video, 'Here we are 50 years from 1976, happy anniversary... I say happy anniversary to you [the fans] because without your support all these years we wouldn't be here, and I am so grateful.' 

On the popular show - which aired for three seasons from 1976 until 1978 - she played tennis player Sommers who is rebuilt using technology after a sky-diving accident then becomes a government special agent.

Austin already had his bionics in place. 

The actress will the beloved series with Bionic 50, a virtual event offering never-before-released signed photos and signed printed copies of the final episode script, On The Run.

Wagner told People the virtual event is a celebration.

'[The fans] always want to ask me questions about, "How did you do this [in the show?]" but for me, I like to hear their stories. So I'm offering these video chats to have them call in and also talk to me about what it was like for them watching the show and [asl] "Who did you watch it with and what did you do and what did you think?"'

Wagner continued: 'Some of them are funny, some of them are very sweet, some of them are very kind of sad but but feel good in a way — that the show could bring somebody who was growing up in a very difficult family and they could escape into Bionic and think about Jamie and feel like somebody had their back.'

Though Bionic Woman was on-screen for only three seasons (from 1976 until 1978), it made a big impression on audiences.   

This series is based on the adventures of Sommers, who almost dies while sky diving. 

She is rebuilt bionically, just like her former fiancé Austin from the Six Million Dollar Man, played by Majors.
