Also cartoonists Searle, Scarfe and Steadman, not helped by the fact that the last two (both born in mid-'36) are stylisticaly so similar!

And one replaced the other on the One Show. I'm convinced the BBC do this deliberately with presenters. They have a very narrow view of what an aesthetically pleasing presenter should look like and deliberately go for one who matches their predecessors much as possible. Happens with the blokes too.

There's a lot of dark haired youngish, well, thirty something, men who are often Welsh too.

Also tall fair haired youngish men, they've just replaced Dan Walker with someone who looks much the same.

I keep thinking the "where harry met sally" sign in katz's deli is in cafe lalo (because it's where meg ryan met tom hanks in 'you've got mail' and this is somehow commemorated- i think it's just noted on their menu).
