So Who Do You Look Like?

Years ago some people who worked for DH said I was like Delia Smith. I never saw it myself, however, more recently when I went (briefly) blonde I saw a picture of Grayson Perry. It was like looking in the mirror!

PS: Actually, with a mum who was blonde and blue eyed, and a dad who was dark and brown eyes, I look more like my dad but with hazel/green eyes (depends on the mood?) whereas my brother inherited the blonde and blue.

I was always told I looked like Helen Shapiro, even her hairdresser said so. Now? Back end of bus I spose

Jabba the Hutt.

I have developed my dad’s long, floppy silver hair since the hairdressers closed. He used Brylcreem to keep it in place!

I've even got a wizened little old man after me.

Ah well Gagajo, at least you've got her sense of humour!

The Dulux dog; oh, pleeeeease let the hairdressers open soon.

In my early 20s, Manfred Mann and Rolf Harris, whose autograph I had to forge, at a desperate mother's request, for a stroppy seven-year-old. More recently, Sean Connery; I'm working on the accent.

Gillian Anderson... I don't see it though.

My granny was the droopy stockinged Nora Batty, not your glamorous neighbour, Chewbacca.

.....and no, I didn’t wear a beret at that age.?

Have never been told that I look like anyone, what a disappointment to me.?
Just look like a mixture of my parents I suppose, although am now older than they ever got to.
When in my twenties I was sometimes told that I looked ‘French’ which flummoxed me somewhat, coming from Yorkshire.?

That's a wide range of doppelgangers Gagajo! And for what it's worth Kathy Staff, who played Nora Batty, was a very good looking woman. She lived not far from here and was always beautifully dressed and turned out.

When I was younger, I was compared to Elkie Brooks by several people. The 'Pearls a Singer' woman.

Then 10 years ago, there a lot of people thought I looked and was funny like Miranda Hart. It happened so much, I got a bit bored with it. When a Chinese teacher at my Shanghai school said to me one day 'You remind me of someone.' I thought to myself, at least it won't be Miranda bloody Hart. But it was! In sodding China!

At school I've been compared to Miss Trunchbull and Susan Boyle by pupils.

Personally, I think I look like my granny. Who looked a lot like Nora Batty.

With my hair being uncut and uncoloured for 4 months? Boris could be my doppelganger.

I've got a foul one that somebody told me I looked like, and she was exceptionally good at it, as well as (brutally, in my case) honest.

So many of you have been told that you look/looked like some real stunners - that's wonderful. I do wish someone had once told me that I looked like Wonder Wonder. (So does my DH probably).

DGS2 always insisted that the dancing pineapple in the Agadoo video was Nanna.....

Lulu when I was younger

She was beautiful.
I remember her being rolled out of a carpet in 'carry on Cleo'.

Well at the min I resemble tatty bogle the scarecrow

Back in the 60s I was told I looked like Amanda Barrie. Now not so much!

I actually saw her one day (in the sixties) on a trip to London and I don 't think we looked at all alike. She had huge eyes and looked very pretty. But some people obviously saw some kind of resemblance.

Meryl Streep is one of my more flattering comparisons.
