    Post Classify English bassist Nigel John Taylor (Does he look like a "textbook" English?)

    Nigel John Taylor (born 20 June 1960 in Solihull, England) is a British musician who is best known as the bass guitarist for new wave band Duran Duran, of which he was a founding member.

    In my opinion, this is the guy who best represents the image which comes to my mind when I think of "English people". He looks even more stereotypical/"average" English than the guy I posted here yesterday (who has some slightly more Germanic input than the average English). Of course John Taylor can pass in other European countries, but in my opinion, this guy would be considered "extremely typical" only in England. He looks like he could easily score 100% British in 23andme.

    Whatever you may look like, no, John Taylor looks absolutely English and 0% Turkish.

    Don't think so. That's what a Bavarian looks like in my opinion.

    He looks quite English or British in general

    No he doesn't, not at all.

    John Taylor isn't an average look at all, maybe a good example of one type, there is no average look for any country. He also doesn't fit in working class areas either very well. Sean Bean would be more typical overall.

    He looks like a Beatle, certainly one of the more British looking Germans surely?
