Tony Blair’s new hairstyle is causing a stir on social media, not least among Doctor Who fans, who spotted the former prime minister’s resemblance to a beloved actor.
“Tony Blair announced as next Doctor Who, reprising the role of William Hartnell,” one joked, while another asked: “Why is Tony Blair cosplaying as William Hartnell?”
“Doctor Who” began trending on Twitter soon after Blair’s hairstyle was revealed, with many fans sharing side-by-side comparisons of him and Hartnell.
They noticed Blair’s grey mullet makes him look a lot like late actor William Hartnell, who starred as the first Doctor in the first series of the BBC sci-fi show.
