Lookalikes

I've wanted to write about this for ages but was lacking any photographic evidence so it wouldn't of made much sense.

For some time now Normanby has been crawling with fake celebrities or lookalikes. These include.

Roy Walker
Mickey Rourke
Gordon Brown
Tuncay Sanli
Gordon Ramsay
Martin O'Neill
Sven Goran Eriksson
A mix of Raymond Van Barnaveld and Sean Williamson (Barry off Eastenders)
The dead Bee Gee....... Robin Gibb?
Avram Grant
Fabio Capello

My friend often gets likened to Dr Who and for some reason people feel the need to point this out to him every time he goes out. Having witnessed first hand the grief it causes i have a bit more tact than to approach these lookalikes and ask for a photo. As a result we often try to take pictures on the sly which seem to always come out shit. Last night though Capello was lapping it up and openly encouraging people to have photos taken. Clearly revelling in his 15 minutes of fame.
