I know, yeah. And there is no agenda. We had French member from Lyon with Provencal and some Swiss-French ancestry and he was genetically west-central Euro.
But he would never describe himself or his region as central Europe.

Not only genetically but also geographically.
And I agree for your explanation that's what I've said, many Italian people came here in the two last centuries.
And for Val d'Aosta, there are Aostans that plot with Northern French, like this one :

I think that most Southern shifted samples would come from areas that are close to Piedmonte. People close from the border are probably very similar to French from the other part.

I should say, more accurately, he is as dark as the darkest Europeans I have seen. Interestingly he has green eyes, dark brown hair (not black or brown/black), but very olive, dark skin. Female friends always asks me, 'Who is that!?', very striking looking guy.
Ironically, I've known two strawberry blonds of Portuguese descent. Not that Portugal does not have strawberry blondes, but I've only known 4 people of Portuguese ancestry, so 50% were semi- redheads.

Foreigners on here also have this weird perception of Anglo-Celtic Australians as being blonder/fairer than they are (more so than Brits), but I'd never heard that stereotype in real life and never observed anything like that. The main difference that's also a real life stereotype is that Anglo-Celtic Australians are generally less pasty and anaemic looking than people back home, which is to be expected.

If you go by that line (Bobby Moore or Paul Bettany or Will Hughes) then that would not make the majority of any European population. This is why it’s an exaggeration. Then it would be approximately:
27.9% - Norway
23% - Sweden
19.5% - The Netherlands
13.6% - The United Kingdom
9% - Belgium
8% - France
