Lookalikes in finance

A while ago, I remember seeing some folks who said that UK Chancellor Alastair Darling looked like Sam the Eagle:

Darling

and Mervyn King, the Governor of the Bank of England, was a bit like Lance Corporal Jones from Dad's Army ("don't panic, Captain Darling"):

Now I think that's really mean as it would be a bit like comparing US Secretary of the Treasury Tim Geithner with Potsie from Happy Days:

or former Chairman of the US Federal Reserve Alan Greenspan with Mister Magoo:

Greenspan

I just can't see it myself ...
