One caused great misery when picked out of a box of golden nuggets from McDonalds, the other caused great misery when he handled in the box and gave a Golden Goal penalty to the Frogs in Euro 2000.
Two angry young men with immense presence in the box..........
One of them blew up bugs on the silver screen,
whilst the other just blows (big style) in a Silver Arrow.....only kidding : GO
COULTHARD! The other guy is Casper van Dien from Starship Troopers, if you didn't
know.
One is an accomplished jewel thief and the other is a
scouser. One's mentally challenged, the other is.......................
A SCOUSER!
One for the Hammers fans out there - Two up and coming
youngsters and two fat old has-beens. No comparison, really! (Carrick/Cole
vs Howard/Robbie from early Take That)
One man destined to bring home the Ashes (maybe....), the other trying to
raise his corruption-ravaged country from the ashes! (Nasser Hussain -
England cricket captain, and Vladimir Putin - Russian President)
For an alternative take on the Putin Lookalike involving Thom Yorke,
click here.
Two living legends, both adored by their many fans around
the world. Renowned for ruling with an Iron Fist and throwing their weight
around. But Arnie hasn't got 3 League Titles and 2 European Cups under
his belt......
One has been known to carve people up and rearrange their
bodily features. The other is a Croatian doctor......
ER star Goran Visjnic and egomaniac Roy Keane
When Sir Alex forked out £19m for Van the Man, did he
realise that, in previous lives, his new star striker was a cocaine manufacturer
and a bank robber?
Robert Davi from 'Licence to Kill' and 'The Goonies', and 2002's Premiership top
scorer, Ruud van Nistelroy
Well, they're both powered by Mercedes, but hopefully
Coulthard's face won't melt off when he gets his hands on the glittering prize....
Wolf Kalher as Col. Dietrich in 'Raiders of the Lost Ark' and that man
David Coulthard again!
One looked like a frog, the other is.......
Tragic comedy genius Marty Feldman
and Scouse folk-hero Gerard Houllier
(OK, you might have seen this on Football365 recently, but a) I thought of it
first and b) their picture of Gerard was crap!)
A topical one in anticipation of the Ashes series!
One of them will be sending smokin' deliveries down to the Aussies, whilst the
other will just be smokin' - a lot!!
'Keef' Richards who's still Rolling and Stoned at 60-odd, and England's Kiwi Andy Caddick
Well, these boys have something in common - they both
left their lucrative positions in surprise moves which sent shockwaves through the
establishments that they were part of.
Suede's former axeman, Bernard Butler, and Jordan's former F1 race ace Heinz-Harald 'Herr Boring' Frentzen
Perhaps a little unfair on the young star......
Isn't it great to see Owen Hargreaves in an England shirt? All those whingeing Canadians
and Taffs can get stuffed - he's all ours! Come on England! The other one's Noel
Gallagher just in case you've been living on Mars since 1994.....
Two Welsh Wizards........
United 'veteran' Ryan Giggs and Manics frontman James Dean Bradfield
One looks like Bubbles, the other just blows Bubbles....
Former 'English Rose' Helena Bonham Carter, and our old pal 'Wacko' Jacko. Has anyone even seen Bubbles recently?
(Thanks to Andy 'Cheeks' Hudson for this one)
Well, you don't see too much of them these days, and they were both renowned for their kicking ability.....
Ever youthful Ralph 'Karate Kid' Macchio and Everton's Gary Lineker (yes, he won that Player of the Year award he's holding there whilst wearing the famous royal blue!)
BIG, BIG Bank balances...
Cantankerous old git Monty Burns from the Simpsons, and who else?
Sorry, can't even think of a crap caption this week....
EastEnders casanova Beppe di Marco and Sunderland star Emerson Thome.
Two men with a questionable grasp of the English language....
Chelsea Supremo Claudio Ranieri and someone we know all about...
Thanks to Mr. Jojo Harper for the suggestion.
I know which one I'd rather get my teeth into! (and I certainly don't mean Dwight Yorke's sloppy seconds...)
Professional tart Jordan and a naan bread with an interesting illustration... Yes, that really is a naan bread. It wouldn't be remotely amusing otherwise!
If you are not a former student of Chemistry at Bristol, you probably won't get this either...
Principal Seymour Skinner of Simpsons fame, and Bristol's esteemed Head of Organic and Biological Chemistry, and Fellow of the Royal Society, Prof. Tom Simpson (no relation!).
If any of you bastards show this to Tom or even mention it to him, there will be serious trouble!! You can thank Paul Morgan for this fine suggestion!!
Two heroes of my youth......
Inspiral Carpets' charismatic (?!) frontman Tom Hingley and Everton's former striking stalwart Graeme Sharp.
Good men to have around in a crisis...
Legendary puppet-hero Captain Scarlet and the BBC's former Liverpool star Alan Hansen.
This was suggested to me by Mr. Paul Morgan, and in my perusal of the web, I found that it had in fact been used on someone else's lookalike site. Oh well, I'm sure you'll enjoy it anyway...
A real bunch of Nazis...
Cult hero, radio star and former Gamesmaster host, Dominic Diamond + Scotland's finest contributor to science, Paul Morgan + Gestapo big cheese, Herr Flick from 'Allo 'Allo.
This was suggested to me by Dr Jon Large Thanks must also go to the delightful Miss Cliona Long for pointing me in the direction of Morgano's mug shot. I hope you're not too offended Mr. Morgan! You can take it out on Long and Large if you are....
Two men you wouldn't trust with your grandmother...
Des 'bad career move' Lynam, and the Fast Show's Swiss Tony
Thanks to Dr Jon Large for another fine suggestion. Keep 'em coming!
Uncanny, isn't it?
Cuba's hardy perennial Fidel Castro, and runner-up to Time Magazine's 'Man of the Year 2001'(?!) Osama bin Laden
Both the suggestion and the pics came to me from Dr Mike Blake, although the idea was put into his head by some crazy American bus driver who insisted that these two gentleman were in fact one and the same! I can see her thinking....
One Plays in a Talented Rock Band....
Hmmm.... The drummer from Sum 41 (who?) and someone who plays in a talented rock band (well, used to/will do)
The suggestion, the pic and the caption came to me from Dr Neil Hunt. If I still had a suitably short hair-cut, then I would've struck a pose (e.g. last year's legendary Alan Smith lookalike) to show you the true genius of Neil's suggestion, but I couldn't have done it justice....
"Phil" 'er up, darlin'!
Phil Collins and EastEnders' Phil Mitchell aka. Steve McFadden
Edgar - the bastard offspring of Yoda and Samuel L. Jackson!
Jedi master Yoda and St.Louis Cardinal Edgar Renteria
Incidently, I got the Yoda picture from this Is Yoda Amish? webpage. Are these people freaks?!
Remarkably similar chaps, actually
Everyone's favourite Geordie, Jimmy Nail, and none other than Tony 'The Donk' Adams!
Thanks to 'Lookalike Guru' Dr Jon Large for the suggestion!
Actually, am I somewhat showing my age by remembering when Tony was a donkey? I mean, the last few seasons he was looking like quite an accomplished footballer. Now, Sol Campbell holds the title of 'The Donkey' in my book. The guy's about as subtle as Snooker cue up the japs! Four years ago in France, he looked like the new Beckenbauer, but he's seriously lost it now. I never thought I'd see the day when I was hoping to see Keown in the squad. He isn't much better, but hoofing the ball as far as the eye can see is better than seeing Sol run up a blind alley and put a goal on the plate for Crespo or someone!!!!
It's a close call, but I think I'd stoop to take Sam...
Bungle Bogs (that is what Zippy called him, isn't it?) and miss Page 3 extraordinaire, Sam Fox.
Thanks to Dr Michael Blake for the suggestion!
Hmmm - both popular in the '80s, but now sadly relegated to life's trash can! I wonder what the hell happened to Geoffrey, not to mention Rod, Jane and Freddy (Hey, Rod! I bet you're glad you didn't know anyone called Freddy back in the Churchill days - what with Jane being a good pal of yours!!).
A pair of legends!
The great white hope of English footy and the great white hope of English chemistry!
Personally, I'd team him up with Hargreaves in the middle of the park. I might make room for Joey Cole as well.....
Uncanny, you must surely agree
Ted Danson and Blackburn's former Evertonian, Craig Short
Ted Danson currently features in a dreadful American TV 'comedy' called 'Becker' (I think that's what it's called). Worth watching for as long as Boris Becker can last after penetration (about 5 seconds according the Russian bird who had Boris' daughter, who unfortunately takes after her father). Danson and Short were surely seperated at birth, don't you think?.
They both spell trouble...
Bolton's World Cup star Stig Tofting (who's heard of Djorkaeff, anyway?) and the Mekon Man
These are two fellas I'd certainly not want to meet in a dark alley... By the way, why the hell do people like Tofting, Graveson and Alexandersson suddenly look world class in the World Cup when they suck arse all year in the Premiership?
Safe pairs of hands?
Ireland's (and Newcastle's) top stopper Shay Given, and our very own Dr Tom Nicholson
This one came from Dr Jon Large. I'm not sure about the likeness, but it's an interesting concept. I hope you're not upset, Tom! You can mail Jon with any complaints!
Uncanny.... Why isn't Benny in the new generation of Crossroads (or has that been cancelled already?!)
Cheating cnut Maradona and Birmingham's finest, Benny from Crossroads...
Poor Tom - first of all I claim that he looks like Newcastle's dodgy 'keeper Shay Given, now Chris Winfield comes up with this stroke of genius! Nice one Dr.W - got any more of these up your sleeve?
To find out more about Carlos, click here.
A crazed, wizened old loon otherwise known as Alex Higgins and his twin brother Mr Frederick Krueger
Personally, I think Higgins looks more like his country man Dr Cormac Ahern (oh, sorry Macca - he's an Ulsterman, isn't he?). I didn't have any recent photos of the boy Ahern, though, so I substituted in Freddie Krueger.....
My fellow Evertonian, Mr John Parrot, and someone with considerably more brains altogether (well, he's a closet Gunners fan!), Prof Tim C. Gallagher of Bristol University.
Oh dear.... If my chemistry career wasn't over before this, then it certainly is now.... 3 Bristol chemistry Profs have now featured in 'LotW' and my neck is surely on the block!
Aerosmith's unique frontman, Steve Tyler, and Vonda Shepard (correct spelling, apparently) of Ally McBeal fame.
Thanks once more to resident lookalike guru Dr Jon Large for the suggestion. Sorry I couldn't find a more suitable pair of photos to do it justice, but I think these two get the point across!
John ' Two Jags' Prescott and his twin, Jabba the Hut
Thanks to Mr James Ansell for the suggestion. Personally I think I'd feel a lot happier if I knew that Jabba was going to be negotiating a new pay deal for the firefighters. At least he had a grip on what he wanted out of life!
Legendary striker Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Froda Baggins aka Elijah Wood
Thanks to Dr.Jon Large for the suggestion. Quite a good one, methinks! I guess Alex Ferguson would be Gandalf, then?!
Two wizards with a fantastic future!
Thanks to Mr.James Ansell for the suggestion. Moyes is an absolute genius. What a great appointment! And Rooney, well that boy is really something else. The fact that the whole country is talking about him proves the point! As for Ron Weasley, he is also blessed by the presence of a superior talent in his life...
Ah, the 80s...
Former Newcastle and Pompey legend Micky Quinn and ITV stalwart Bob Carolgees
Maybe it's just the tashes, but I think there's a distinct resemblance. They both had a Golden era in the late 80s and both kind of disappeared without trace as the 90s wore on. Just out of interest, this is what Bob's agent's website says about the great man:
'A most unassuming, professional Artiste, Bob is
well respected at
every level in thebusiness, in which he seems assured of a place
for many years to come.'
Hmmm..... Can't figure out if Mick's impersonating Al Capone or Saddam Hussein...
Maybe it's just the hair, but....
Fringe Liverpool squad member Patrick Berger and Brat-Pack star Johnny Depp
This one came to me as I watched Liverpool's abysmal performance at Chelsea which culminated in non-qualification for next year's Champions' League. Scant consolation for Everton finishing outside the UEFA positions. Still, I'd have taken 7th place if you'd offered it at the start of the season. And what a surprise that the boy Rooney picked up a knock against Man U that will keep him out of the squad for the South Africa game. Yes, Sven. Moyes IS the boss...
Hmmm....
Fringe Liverpool squad member Patrick Berger (again) and some geezer called Kristian (aka Max Brown) from Hollyoaks
After seeing my lookalike comparing Berger with Johnny Depp in the last update (sometime ago now!), Dr Craig Butts contacted me with the suggestion that this fella from Hollyoaks was a better likeness for Liverpool's forgotten man. I'm glad to see that one of the brightest minds in the SouthWest watches Hollyoaks (sadly, I don't stoop so low. EastEnders is low enough for me!), and I think that it is a fair comparison. Cheers, Craig.
