... but does Ed Milliband sound like Finknottle from the Fry & Laurie "Jeeves & Wooster" series.

Many thanks for bringing this up OGA, and everyone else who contributed. We looked into some of the suggestions and came up with a couple of our own to compile a piece entitled Born Dull celebrity lookalikes.

Hope you enjoy it - we couldn't have done it without you.
