Classify Ciarán Hinds

[Northern Paladin]

A good example of "Black Irish"

[trojanerikson]

He has a long head like a Nordic but has dark hair and greeny grey eyes
I don't know what he is.

The only dark Irish is Pierce brosnan

I think the link is all about dark haired irish

[Fyrgenholt]

Atlantid (or Atlanto-Mediterranean?) and Bruenn, maybe. He looks quite exotic in the bearded one - none the less, typically British Isles, I'd say.

I see people who look like him all of the time (they're the sort of people who go to the pub with my grandmother - I swear, there's tons of them who look like that!), but that could be down to my geographic position within England, being near to Liverpool and so forth there is quite a large Irish contribution and perhaps you would see people who look like him less in, I don't know, Sussex. Just an observation!

He doesn't look too dissimilar to myself, either, ignoring the 30 year age gap! He has a larger and more pronounced chin than I have. I'd post a picture, but this subforum isn't private
