On another thread a poster said something that got me thinking-they said "Homer Simpson isnt real you know" so the question is what "characters" have you met in day to day life? In my street there is a Victor Meldrew who funnily enough is married to a Hyacinth Bouquet. I have met a Jodie Marsh "act a like" (not really uncommon though is it ;)) Oh and my ex was a Phil Mitchell lookalike and act alike :eek: Its just a bit of fun guys but its scary how many poeple you come across that are so like "characters" you sometimes wonder if the part was written after someone meeting them lol x

I know Steve Wright but he doesn't look or sound like the Radio 2 DJ, I'm afraid. Nice man - he's a professional photographer...

Was in inverness on monday. Had to wait around for a while(bloody wummin shoppin) so played "spot the celebrity". During the 1 hour i found:

Lee Evans
Jack Black
The Sloth out of Ice Age 3
Colonel Sanders

Not really that much, but impressive that there's quite a few lookalikes.

Every morning, I wake up with Eva Herzegova (http://images.google.co.uk/images?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&um=1&ei=VQGoSv-NL-C8jAezr8XSCA&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=Eva+Herzigova&spell=1).

It takes a wee while to rub the sleep out of my eyes right enough. ;)

There's a bloke two floors down looks like Milton from "Office Space". I hope they're treating him right so he doesn't burn down the building...

I once saw someone in Wick who was the spit of the character Steve McDonald from Coronation Street and my sister saw someone who looked just like Richard Fleishman.

Maybe someone should start a lookalike agency?:D

There's a very lovely bus driver right now, who's the spitting image of Paul O'Grady. He seems like a jolly nice fellow too! :)

I once met the double of Rick Parfitt in a motorway loo, (No, it's not what you think!). I tried not to laugh cos I had a vision of him doing the Status Quo 'dance' as he pee'd. [lol]

we were on the Med last year and on the same ship as we were, was Craig Brown, the ex-Scotland football manager...

That`s what my daughter called him about 4 months ago when I asked her who collected them from swimming.She said it was one of the new drivers,when I asked which one she said, "The one who looks like Paul O`Grady."
