The Celebrity Doppelgänger Challenge

Brookster's picture

Forum members may be interested in this quiz I concocted for another messageboard. The challenge is simple – all the people in the picture are available for hire as celebrity doubles; all you, dear reader, have to do is work out who they're supposed to be.

All correct

Brookster | 26 January 2011 - 10:50am

Blimey

I was joking about Minnie Driver, and entirely unconvinced by the other two.

Can we hire all of these for a Massive meet-up?

Uncle Monty | 26 January 2011 - 4:02pm

6 Rhys Ifans

Dr Volume | 26 January 2011 - 10:50am

Rhys Ifans

is correct

0
Brookster | 26 January 2011 - 10:52am

no way

I posted that as a joke! Who hires a rhys ifans lookalike? Would it cost that much to hire the real thing?

0
Dr Volume | 26 January 2011 - 11:00am

Especially a Rhys Ifans lookalike...

0
Brookster | 26 January 2011 - 10:53am

Is it that

knob head who was in Two Pints of Lager?

0
Ahh_Bisto | 26 January 2011 - 10:57am

Looks...

... more like Pele.

0
Formbyman | 26 January 2011 - 10:59am

Does number 7

think he looks like The Hoff?

0
Vulpes Vulpes | 26 January 2011 - 10:57am

Surprisingly yes

That was the one that foxed most people. (Personally I think he looks more like a grumpy Colin Montgomery.)

0
Brookster | 26 January 2011 - 10:58am

foxed.

Very good.

Vulpes Vulpes | 26 January 2011 - 11:19am

confident with James McAvoy for number 9.

jimmyshoes01 | 26 January 2011 - 7:03pm

1 & 3

are the only ones remaining.

Brookster | 26 January 2011 - 11:04am

Is 1

Kevin from Corrie?

0
Leedsboy | 26 January 2011 - 11:14am

Exactly

What I thought. He'd get a lot of work too. Hen parties could hire him to hurl abuse at.

Spartacus Mills | 26 January 2011 - 11:29am

Is 3

Alison Krauss?

0
Ahh_Bisto | 26 January 2011 - 11:18am

Ooh ooh

is 3 supposed to be Cameron Diaz?

0
Ahh_Bisto | 26 January 2011 - 11:19am

Number 1

Is it possible that this man might just be deluded enough to think he bears a fleeting resemblance, reflected in a broken mirror seen from a speeding car, underwater, at night, to David Schwimmer?

(stretching reality to breaking point here)

Vulpes Vulpes | 26 January 2011 - 11:23am

None of the above are correct.

doubleyoubee | 26 January 2011 - 11:28am

No 3

Scarlett Johansson (even though I look more like SJ than no.3 and I'm bald with a goatee)?

0
Fraser M | 26 January 2011 - 11:29am

0
Brookster | 26 January 2011 - 11:30am

0
Brookster | 26 January 2011 - 11:51am

otherwise he looks like a German rapist

0
badger_king | 26 January 2011 - 11:53am

Does No 1

think he's de Niro?

0
Helena Handcart | 26 January 2011 - 11:52am

Surely

No.8 looks more like Ricky Gervais?

Darthfarter | 26 January 2011 - 3:27pm

Or

Phil Mitchell.
