Help me identify a celeb

I was in a cafe in Manchester today and both my son and I thought we recognised a man. We assumed he was famous - actor/celeb. He was white, pretty tall, very dark slicked back hair with almost italian features - reminded me of a tall Frankie Dettori/Adrian Brody. Could have been anywhere between 25 and 40. Any ideas?

Aneurin Barnard? His hair isn't normally slicked back but he could be trying a new look! Grin

Do you know the name of the cafe? You could type it into Twitter and see if anyone spotted him and mentioned it.

Ben Barnes?

@TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross

Giovanni Pernice from Strictly? White, tall, Italian, dark slicked back hair, 31, began his tour yesterday in Doncaster so he’s vaguely in the right area at least?
This was immediately who I thought of! He’s lovely 🥰

Aneurin Barnard has a similar look, but this chap was much thinner in the face.

Gino D’Acampo? He owns restaurants in Manchester.
He does but he'd never be described as tall

I've seen Gino in Manchester. Very stylish and smelt lovely (I was in a queue next to him pre covid distancing days) but he definitely wasn't tall!
