Ever been cutting shapes in Switch when someone runs over and grabs you, insistent that you’re their favourite celeb? The Soton Tab  has a sneaking suspicion that these people have…

Ryan Todd2

Ryan, second year, or Todd from Breaking Bad?

Angel, second year, AKA actress Candice Patton.

Patrick Matt SmithPatrick Donnelly, dead ringer for recent ‘Dr Who’, Matt Smith.

ed1
Soton Tab lookalike, Ed Bannister AKA Brendan Gleeson.

amy pond3

First year Psychology student Megan Waterman, or Karen Gillan (Amy Pond from Dr Who)?

james will

The Soton Tab’s James Slonina, looking distinctly like the Chronicles of Narnia actor, Will Poulter.

Joe Fonz2

Joe Rosi, doing his best to impersonate The Fonz from Happy Days.

Ok, maybe it’s just the pose.

seyed bruno

Seyed, second year, with the chiseled jawline and hair of Bruno Mars.

sammy1

Sammy Brichard and Ollie Locke from Made in Chelsea, both known to adopt a ‘long hair, don’t care’ attitude to life.

binky2

Continuing the MIC theme, here’s Kiera Keane and her toff counterpart Binky Felstead.

And finally, there’s me, Harry Majin, otherwise known as Zach from School of Rock.

harry Ed3

Or if you’re feeling topical, ex-Labour leader Ed Miliband. I guess I just have one of those faces.

    I think this now takes the title as the worst entry ever written on this website, not only is it a poor excuse for an article but none of these look even remotely similar to their supposed-doppelgangers….

    The Tab really has gone down the toilet over the last couple of months, culminating in this waste of facebook news feed space. I’m not much for journalism, I watch the news and have a vested interest in current affairs but little beyond this and even I could could produce better articles than this utter tosh. That’s all the tab is good for these days is the once a semester post about exam timetabling.

    Seems like some people have forgotten to take their daily chill pill today. Some are definitely better than others but not a bad effort

    Does anyone else remember the days when the Tab was genuinely funny? When it published articles about things that actually fucking mattered and it wasn’t just a platform for the editorial team to pat their friends and each other on the back?

    Remember when it was better than the Wessex Scene?

    The Tab isn’t THAT bad. Admittedly this is an embarrassing article but they do have the occasional gem. They’ve never really been better than the Scene at actual good journalism (I’ve been here a while) in terms of decent feature ideas and stuff readers actually respond to. They did use to beat the scene to news stories a lot which they’ve been a shambles with over the last two years, they tend to copy from the Echo and the Scene a few hours after they publish. But alas, it is a Tabloid at the end of the day, and it’s aim isn’t to produce hard-hitting, thought-provoking journalism in the same way the Scene does. A tabloid, by it’s very nature is sensationalist bile – it aims to get as many hits and be as controversial as possible. Wessex Scene however, actually do good investigative journalism and aim for journalistic quality, something they’ve done incredibly well this year, and will hopefully continue to do. I know the Tab and Scene are ‘rivals’ but their aims and objectives are so different we shouldn’t really compare them – although if we are, I agree, The Tab has nothing on Wessex Scene this year.

    Came to the tab to see if there was anything re “shock of the century” election results and found this to be the top article.. Wouldn’t even have known an election took place from the front page? For a ‘tabloid’ you guys really have really missed a trick
