    I always get told I look like my mum. So much so that I was approached out of the blue by a customer last year asking was I her daughter! This woman hadn't seen or talked to my mum in over 25 years. That was creepy.

    At a funeral once and one of my cousins in his mid thirties says to me "Jaysus you're the spit of Gerard Byrne."

    My response - "Eh Eddie, I am Gerard Byrne!"

    No :( Apparently I don't look like anyone, ever. Not once in my life have I been told I look like someone.

    Not sure if that's a good or bad thing.

    Nonsense. You've been told you look like Jane Fonda, Rebecca Mader from Lost, Jean Butler from Riverdance, Cillian Murphy, Vera Farmiga from the Departed, Sarah Chalke, Gemma Hayes, Holly White (Becks from Dan & Becks), Jane Birkin, Marianne Faithfull, Michael Pitt and Kathryn Thomas on the Know Your Lookalikes thread alone.

    Never told you look like someone. Tsk. :pac:

    looking at pictures of my mother when she's a teenager I'm the image of her.
    This is precisely why young men are advised to take a long hard look at the gf's mother if things are getting serious. It's like looking at the gf in 25 years.

    My Mam as an identical twin sister that lives in roughly the same area, anytime we used to go to the Supermarket,random people would come up to her and start having a big friendly conversation. She would then have to explain that she wasn't my auntie, she was her twin!

    I always get told I look a lot like my Mam and my sister. Apparently the three of us are one "side" of the family, while my other sister and my Dad are the other "side" of the family. I never get told I look like my Dad - I guess I don't particularly look like him.

    I just bumped that thread to see if anyone has any ideas for me. All I got the first time I tried it was "David O'Doherty - but better looking"
    I am both looking forward to and dreading the replies (if any)
