Is footballer Stephen Darby a Ken Barlow look-a-like?

This just in today from T'Telegraph journalist with the wonderful Corrie surname of Ogden:

"According to Valley Parade captain Gary Jones, full-back Stephen Darby bears such a resemblance to a younger version of the Coronation Street character that the former Liverpool defender is known as Ken Barlow among his team-mates.

“That’s true,” Darby said. “I played with Gary at Rochdale and that’s where it started, so he brought it up again when I signed last summer. Unfortunately it has stuck. I think it’s a facial thing rather than my dress sense! I can’t believe it has stuck. Even my mates call me that now.”

Well, here he that Ken Barlow look-a-like Stephen Darby. Do you think he looks much like Ken? I can't see it, myself.


But here he is bearing a resemblance to Gary Windass.

 And to Kirkeh.
