Irish/British look closer to Scandinavians, Frisians/Flemish, NW French, Central or Eastern Euros?

[Curtis24]

Depends on what parts of the British Isles. Eastern England looks like Frisians/Flemish/Dutch more than anything else; Western Britain and Eastern Ireland look Spanish; and Western Ireland has its own look IMO.

[Pallantides]

Most British and Irish people I have seen could pass as Norwegians.

[Nglund]

I can pass as both a norskie and a pashtun goat farmer .

[Aviane]

But what about the British and Irish who do not look particularly like any of those? Emma Watson, Colin Farrell, George Clooney, Orlando Bloom, Andrea Corr types?

Your probably right actually not all British will fit into those zones I picked.

I would expect the Eastern part of England to look Dutch/Belgian but for the Western part I wouldn't of thought about it plus I'm not really familiar with Spanish looks.

Still very good information Curtis24.

Yes indeed.

I bet you could pull it off for true.

Just grow a beard and dye your hair Black.

I think there is a minority that look Iberian as I've said numerous times.. and the ones I said fit into that grouping as opposed to the others, and I personally think Brits and Irish as a whole look closer to French than to Scandinavians.

I have seen a couple of Kalash, Burusho and Pashtun's who wouldn't look out of place on a Norwegian farm too.

well prsonally i saw people from Wales and Irish who look as Spaniards, celtic influence?

The British Isles have influences mediterranean, celtic and viking, so it will be normal find people who look as spaniards, scandinavian and French

[Wyn]

When I'm in Spain the locals come up to me and talk to me in Spanish, assuming I'm one o' them.

I'll take from that the assumption that I don't look particularly Frisian/Dutch. I can live with that.

I can't really say about a minority that looks Iberian because for one I'm not familiar with the looks of Iberians and two a minority as you are saying won't really cover enough.

I would not be surprised on the idea that Irish/Brits closely look like the French.

I have seen a couple of Kalash, Burusho and Pashtun's who wouldn't look out of place on a Norwegian farm too.

Those Kalash, Pashtun etc, can fit into Europe so that's not really a shock.

Well I think in Wales and parts of western Britain (Cornwall, Devon) you'd probably find more people who looked Iberian than you would Scandinavian.. Scotland would be the reverse though as would East Anglia.
