Mostly good examples, although I'm still suspicious about Alastair Cook's ancestry, while Benjamin Francis Leftwich is actually quite light.

I see, but he is brown-eyed, that's the "main" point of my thread.

A lot of these guys are more Atlantomediterranid than Atlantid which is supposed to be between Atlantomediterranid and Nordid. Many have Cromagnid influences as well. Also, this type is not associated with the Celts, Atlantomediterranids in Britain came before the mainly Nordoid Celts.
