To have just realised Hugh Bonneville and Colin Firth are not the same person?

[Fieldofgreycorn]

Mind just blown. I know this must sound crazy but I’ve always thought they’re the same person.

Not been a fan of the programmes/ films, but in my head I’ve always thought Hugh Bonneville/ Colin Firth/ Downton Abbey/ Mr Darcy we’re all the same actor for years.

I’ve done this sort of thing before. Does anyone else?

James Nesbitt and John Hannah

All the Hollywood Chris’s - entirely interchangeable to me

@TabbyStar

James Nesbitt and John Hannah

Me too

Although i kept picturing Tim Mcinnerny who is bald in place of Hugh Bonneville and thinking hes bsld doesnt look anything like Colin Firth

XFPW - yes that Wimbledon photo - they are the same person

Michael Fassbender and Tom Hiddleston here. It always takes me ages to work out which one I'm watching!

Samuel L Jackson and Morgan Freeman. Not as themselves, but I can never remember/work out which was in which film.

Bill Murray and Bill Pullman - again, in their film roles.

My guilty trash TV viewing: Say Yes to the Dress.

It was years before I realise Randy Fenoli and Monte Durham were different people! They don't even look alike, but I just didn't twig, and wondered why he sometimes worked in Atlanta and sometimes in New York!

@Theromanempire

Here is mine...see, totally unrecognisable

I honestly thought you'd gone mad and put up a photo of Jonny Vaughan - then I googled 😱

Kitty you've just reminded me of another one - Bill Pullman and Jeff Daniels!

Chris Hemsworth and Liam Hemsworth.

Although, in my defence, they are actually brothers, so they're genetically quite similar.

I couldn't tell you which was one Thor and which one married Miley Cyrus, or if it was even two separate brothers. Every time I learn, I forget immediately.

They're both equally beautiful. Good genes, that family.

@XFPW

Oh my goodness - I would never have recognised Hugh Bonneville in that second photo!

I constantly get confused by Bradley Cooper. For a long time I confused him with High Jackman.

Then there’s him and Gerard Butler - I think it all stems from them going to Wimbledon together and wearing almost matching outfits.

Then there’s Ryan Reynolds and Ryan Gosling - I still don’t know which one is which.

That's not Hugh Bonneville in the second photo, it's Paul Burrell. Making the point of how similar they look

@WhatICallMyUsername that wasn’t the photo I meant! I meant the one which shows how much weight Hugh Bonneville has lost recently. He looks a completely different person!

Oh gosh I do apologise, I didn't even see that one, I thought it was an advert when I was scrolling

Ha! It really does prove the point though - the picture of Paul Burrell looks more like Hugh Bonneville than the newly slimmed down version of himself does!

Lee Mack and Bradley Walsh are the two I confuse. How anyone can confuse Colin Firth and Hugh Bonneville is beyond me!!

Its Isla Fisher and Amy Adams for me.

I’ve always mixed Bill Pullman and Bill Paxton.

I’ve always had a soft spot for Hugh Bonneville, ever since he was in Nottinghill

In the weight loss pic I thought it was the money saving guy, whatshisname!

I win with jessica chastain and Bryce Dallas Howard

Katy Perry, Emily Blunt & Zooey Deschanel.
Have no idea who is who.

Now he just looks like Stephen Tomkinson!

Paul Rudd and Not Paul Rudd! Confused me for YEARS until I googled something and realised...

Russell Crowe and Gerard Bulter confuse me.

For those of you confusing woody Harrelson and Matthew McConaughey watch the first true dective while drinking a bottle of wine!

@ThankyouPeter please don't insult the lovely Mr Bonneville by comparing him to that person!

Rachel Bilson and Leighton Messiter also confuse me. Especially as RB was going out in The OC with LM's real life husband.

I have this with
Isla Fisher and Amy Adams
