Every time I see a photo of him I always think he reminds me of someone and can't quite work out who it is and today it hit me - Ken Dodd! The likeness is uncanny.

YANBU :o

YANBU! Looks like he has timeshare on Cliff Richard's 'dinosaur scrotum' style neck too.

southeastastra · 10/02/2012 16:44

i like him and don't really get all the bashing

LOL!!! Grin

There was a picture of McCartneys son today, and he looks like the love child of Matt Lucas when he is doing his wheelchair character in Little Britain.. complete with combover hairdo

Squeakytoy - Spot on!!!!

Perriwinkle · 10/02/2012 16:58

Yes that's spot on!

The son looks like McCartney but has Linda's colouring.

Brilliant observation.

FreudianSlipper · 10/02/2012 17:17

he is you are right and so is squeakytoy :o

TreacleSoda · 10/02/2012 17:35

He is strangely waxy looking too. And his hair, dear goodness, no man of his age has hair that colour.

He is an odd man and no mistake. And I speak as someone who loves some of the Beetles music, but Paul McCartney himself? Urgggh

Kayoe · 10/02/2012 17:40

He's gone prematurely mahogany. Oh dear.

TreacleSoda · 10/02/2012 17:42

gah, I meant Beatles. And I'm so anal I had to post this correction, in case someone came on and said 'you say you love some of their music, but you can't even spell the name of the band' Blush

Clawdy · 10/02/2012 18:17

What's with the Paul-bashing?another thread on a similar theme. He is talented,kind,and used to be gorgeous.So he's not gorgeous now. He's in his late sixties. Happens,y'know.Shock

ModreB · 10/02/2012 19:55

Sorry Clawdy, McCartney is not talented at all. Lennon was the talented one, McCartney is the one hanging onto the coattails of Lennons genius.

TheMouseRanUpTheClock · 10/02/2012 19:58

Yanbu, made me laugh, he has grown rough over the years.

I hear he is tight fisted, so probably runs around the house with a duster like ken!

KenDoddsDadsDog · 10/02/2012 19:59

How dare you say he looks like my owner. He's no relation to tortoise face.

TheMouseRanUpTheClock · 10/02/2012 20:03

Where has Paul been putting his fingers they are all wrinked up in the dm link?

Mandy2003 · 10/02/2012 22:21

I've always wondered why our elderly older male rock stars have a tendency to look like your Aunties did in the 1970s (face and hairstyle) Confused

echt · 10/02/2012 23:23

He's nearly 70 FFS. How good do we think WE will look at that age?

I'm no fan, but his figure is remarkably good for a chap of his age.

ModreB try listening to "Blackbird"....not talented...hmm. Interested in your definition of the word. That hoary old chestnut about Lennon having all the talent was kicked into touch years ago. After the split,neither wrote to the same standard. The truth is,together they were magic,separately each wrote good and bad songs.("Only Women Bleed",anyone?) The difference now is that Paul is still living to take the flak that comes with fame.

Perriwinkle · 11/02/2012 16:59

echt I didn't say anything about him looking old - I just said he looks like Ken Dodd!
