They all look the same!

Amusing moment just now on BBC News 24.

Reporter is at Lord's for the Ashes presentation etc, milling around in the crowd while the players are inside. "We're just going to talk now to Clive Lloyd, the former West Indian captain..."

Camera reveals a tall middle-aged black guy who says, in a Caribbean accent, "Wonderful moment for English cricket, blah blah etc..."

Reporter emits a small shriek. "Ah, it's actually Bill Morris, the trade unionist. Hallo Bill!"

Morris continues to chat, with admirable calmness and dignity...

It's OK, I managed to mis-identify Trevor MacDonald as Clive Lloyd during the coverage of the fifth test. I think everyone just looks like Clive Lloyd...

And I mistook Hugh Grant for Paul Michael Glaser. (He was wearing immense aviator shades... but even so.)
