Punter spots man bearing uncanny resemblance to Winston Churchill's five-pound note picture

We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, and it seems like we shall fight in the pub too.

Winston Churchill never referenced Britain’s love of a boozer in his famous Dunkirk speech – but this man is an uncanny lookalike of the political icon, and it’s been proven without a doubt after his face was compared to Churchill’s appearance on a £5 note.

The hilarious resemblance was spotted by Roy Thomas from Wallasey, Merseyside, who held a fiver up to compare the similarities between the two.

Captioning the snap, he wrote: ‘Not everyday you meet the fella over the fivers.’

It’s since received almost 1,500 retweets – and a few ringing endorsements of the lookalikes.

‘Twins! Separated at birth’, one user said.

Another sensed the opportunity for some historical lookalike work, and predicted that the man was ‘sitting on a fortune.’

And if there was any doubt over his resemblance, this face swap has unequivocally settled it.

See what we mean? It’s a strong look that Winston himself would personally approve.
