Girl replaces dad’s photos with pictures of Pat Phelan and the resemblance is uncanny

Pat Phelan is just about everywhere these days.

Wrecking havoc in Weatherfield (and slightly beyond), plotting, scheming, hanging on someone's wall... Yes, you read that right. A social media user has gone viral for the fact that her dad bears a striking similarity to none other than Pat Phelan himself. Bobbie, who goes by @BobsHallworth on Twitter, explained on March 18 that she had often been told her dad looks like the Corrie villain. So, she decided to replace all of the photos of him in the house with pictures of Pat. And three weeks later, he still hasn't noticed. https://twitter.com/BobsHallworth/status/975368009299750913 She wrote:

People soon began to question if Bobbie's dad really looked like Phelan or not and...well, he really does. Bobbie soon added a video of her dad and a side-by-side comparison of him and Phelan in the comments - and people couldn't cope. https://twitter.com/BobsHallworth/status/975452014179168256 https://twitter.com/BobsHallworth/status/975462028734271495 One person said:

"I love this! Need to see a pic of your dad now though....."

Someone else wrote:

"Hang on Bobbie, Pat is actually your dad, no story, nothing to see, move on."

A different social media user joked:

"So does this mean that @connor9mcintyre Pat Phelan isn't to blame for the murders in corrie? Perhaps your dad."

Even Conor McIntyre, aka Pat Phelan himself, weighed in on the similarities - calling the gag "brilliant". https://twitter.com/connor9mcintyre/status/975867517045563392
