Can YOU spot the stars in our teen photo casebook?

As BBC star Amol Rajan reveals his embarrassing past as a magazine model… Can YOU spot the stars in our teen photo casebook?

We see them on our TV screens or hear them regularly on radio — but some of Britain’s famous names have also moonlighted as comic-strip characters.

One well-known former BBC media editor recently revealed that he featured as an ‘inadequate man’ in a 2018 comic strip on Channel 5’s The Wright Stuff.

Now a radio host, he told BBC TV’s Would I Lie To You?: ‘It was really to bring alive scenarios that people could relate to. I would be pictured, often with someone out of my league, then there would be a little thought bubble that said “I just can’t make it happen”.’

And plenty of other celebrities have also graced the pages of the nation’s photo comic strips in their time. 

Here, we look at some household names in unfamiliar comic guise. But who are they? (See answers below).
