    Default Post examples of Brits who can not easily pass as American or Australian Whites

    Most White British people can easily pass in the US and Australia by default, but strangely enough, I've always had the impression that there are some British people who have a distinct 'Old World vibe'.

    For example, I can't really imagine Rowan Atkinson being an Anglo-American or Australian although he is apparently of fully British ancestry:



    Do you have any other examples?

    I have studied over in America. Atkinson passes as fully White there. He just doesn't have the American smile.

    Even for me this thread is silly. Of course, some faces would be more typical for those countries than others, but I am sure that it would be very unusual to find a Briton who could barely pass in them at all.

    Will Hughes looks very British to me. He doesn’t have the American demeanor.

    I don't think such a thing exists.

    British Islanders supplied the majority of Euro ancestry of white Americans and even more of white Australians, all their faces can be found in the US and Australia, if they have a hard time passing among Anglo-Americans/Anglo-Aussies it's because, I suppose, they are already atypical in the British Isles.

    I don't agree, there seem to be very specific looks, i suppose when you mix people from different parts of the UK together you can tend towards a more American look, heck even in some regions of the UK you get people who don't really pass in other regions, looks can often be very localised.
