In my opinion this time the differences are not immediately obvious but I may be wrong. :lol:

I disagree with Body.

#1 looks like a western Sicilian with Norman influence moreso than an Italian to me.
#2 Portuguese
#3 Northern Italian (could definitely pass in Central Europe.)
#4 Spaniard (although, you're right that he could also be Sicilian, he even resembles me a bit)
#5 Greek (or maybe Italian... but she's the most Greek looking so I'll go with that.)

You got all of them.

They were all kinda easy, but 2 was the most obvious of all of them.

#2 couldn't have been Spanish to you?

What I noticed is this -- #1 and #3 look Germanic, #2 looks British, #4 is almost pan-European and #5 looks Balkan.

#2 is the only one who could pass for what I consider Atlantid/Portuguese, while #4 is Berid-looking, to me.

I think all of them would pass as Sicilian except #2. Agree?

#3 would have a hard time in most parts as well, but I guess she could pass in a few areas (like Palermo).

#2, like most Portuguese, would not pass, no.

I thought so to. The only one who would look completely alien and mistaken for a British tourist is #2.

Give the agenda a rest, it's boring.

And I've seen that light-haired Sicilian girl spammed around, alfieb probably has to. I really doubt he guessed her on his magic ability to always discern Sicilians from mainland Italians.

Never seen her before.

I've just seen people like her in and around Palermo, where half of my family live.

Is she Palermitana?

Nope, from Messina.

Anyway it's not an agenda to state #2 would be mistaken for a British tourist.

The Sicilian girl can pass more for British than I can, a half Brit who lives here.

She could pass for British, but not all Brits could pass in Sicily. Girl #2 resembles a British type that doesn't. In fact I am surprised her look even occurs in Portugal, she looks so Keltic-Nordid.

She can pass and the Northern Italian woman.

In Britain you mean? I'm not doubting that.

I was referring to the Portuguese woman in that sentence, sorry about that Sikky - I should be more clear. Yeah I know Brits can't pass in Sicily. For the most part.

No 2 doesn't look British to me. Of all of them No 1 looks possibly British all of the rest no.

I still think that the first girl has very north italian features, and not really germanic. You find thousands of girls like that in north-east Italy, for exemple, very common. Not sure about NW Italy.
