off topic ... look-a-likes

[Phantom]

Just for some fun ... which famous person (or people) have you been told you resemble? Or who do YOU think you look like?

To start the ball rolling, I've been told - at various times in my life - that I look like ...

Gene Wilder (when he was Willy Wonka)
Mark Knopfler (singer for Dire Straits)
Jimmy Nail (thanks for that - really boosted my self confidence)
and
Tim Roth (Reservoir Dog)

Oh - and a girl in pub once started freaking out because she swore blind I was like an identical twin for her cousin.

So how about you guys ... who's your famous dopplegangers?

Just remembered another - when I had long straggily hair, I used to be a big Carter USM fan. I went to loads of their gigs, and often wangled my way backstage.

Once while I was sitting chatting to Fruitbat, someone came up and asked me if I'd sign my name on the back of their tour t-shirt, thinking I was Jimbob.

The poor guy was mortified when he realised his blunder (there were about 7 or 8 other people around the table and they all cracked up).

At that time, I was often told I looked like Jimbob. So that's Tim Roth, Willy Wonka, Jimmy Nail, Jimbob from Carter and Mark Knopfler ... Aye Caramba!!!

When at school, this is going back to 1979, a girlie at a local disco approched me and said "Here, you look just like Sting!"

Sadly as time as passed Sting took up Yoga and started to look younger. I took up beer and fags and started to look older.
