‘Close your eyes and Rishi Sunak sounds just like Will from The Inbetweeners ‘

We’re grateful to author and Times columnist Ryan Bourne – @MrRBourne over on Twitter – for sharing his friend’s observation just how much PM wannabe Rishi Sunak sounds like Will from The Inbetweeners.

Because it really is uncanny.

Someone told me that if you close your eyes, Rishi sounds like Will from The Inbetweeners and now I can't unhear it. https://t.co/J9qCZcF57J

In the unlikely event you needed a side by side comparison, here’s Will (not Rishi) from the beloved sitcom.

And here are just a few of the things people were saying about the soundalikes.
