I thought this would be helpful! A thread where we can help one another find actors to play characters, fill in spare family members for photo albums, etc. JUST FOR FUN, I'LL THROW ONE OF MINE IN: I've been working at picking siblings for the Beck-Wickham family, and could use another brother or two. So far it's Jon Hamm, Steve Carell, Jennifer Conelly and Cobie Smulders.

Just saying... that Beck-Wickham family? Gosh it's full of cool people! I am no help on the 'another brother or two' front but I just wanted to say that. *thumbs up* Anyone know of a lovely looking woman who could pass for the Carlyles' mum? Doesn't matter if she looks young because I'll just say it was a photo of her when she was young (yes I am S-M-R-T). If it helps, for the dad I have one of your fab suggestions- Andrew Bird- and the Carlyle 'kids' are Richard Hammond, Bret McKenzie, Sarah Parish, Talulah Riley & Gemma Arterton. ETA: Just saying, Andrew Bird, in certain pics, strikes me as a cross between Milo Ventimiglia and sort-of Steve Coogan. Please say someone else can see that resemblance, even slightly, and I'm not just going crazy? ETA2: For now, I'm thinking Ronni Ancona for Kelly Carlyle, when she was younger obviously. Do you think it's plausible?

Those are great choices for family members! And I agree with what Emma said, the Beck-Wickham's are awesome! Any ideas for brothers for the McAvoy family? I am definitely going to post some pics of Ned in Heather’s photo album, hehe. And anyone can add to it by the way, collectively random pictures of any of them are most welcome.

For Simon (Mmm, Jon Hamm *drools*) brother...how about Chris Meloni? I swear he looks like an older Jon Hamm (I typed Jon Jamm the first time...how tasty!). Handily linked picture for referenceAnyone know of anyone who'd fit for Daddy B siblings? I havent really decided on how many but Im thinking he'll h ave at least 2 sisters and maybe 1 brother? Or 2? I thought maybe the girl who was in Made of Honour with PDemp, Michelle Monaghan. Also looking for parents for Timmeh (I was thinking John Cleese for his dad, just because I love the man and want him for at least one charries family!). And Jason needs a mum and little brother...like 13 years old little. I dont know any celebs that young because I feel a bit pervy looking for them lol Definitely going to make Cian's dad Jeffrey Dean Morgan and his mum has always been Catherine Keener. I'll shut up...look at me going on and on, lol

lol Jon Jamm. Is it any good with Jon Hamm's John Ham? (I really wanted to link to that sketch along with Hamm & Bublé, but I can't find them on youtube anywhere. I shall keep an eye out!) ANYWAY Chris Meloni is absolutely perfect, thank you!

Thanks Lia, Sufjan Stevens would make a fantastic McAvoy brother, what do you think Emma? Anyone know of any parents for the McAvoy clan? The only person I can think of for their mum is Camille Coduri who played Jackie Tyler in Doctor Who, but I dunno really? That picture of Jon Hamm is really amusing, and I agree Chris Meloni fits perfectly as his brother.

Taking a break from studying to say that I demand more photo albums! They're so much fun to look through. For Geoff's two brothers: Jason Sudeikis/ Ed Helms or Paul Schneider/ Paul Rudd? I was going to ask if Stephen Colbert could be related to Norah, but in all honesty I like Stephen so much that I'd probably just do it anyway, haha.

I am going to make a photo album for the Graham family... someday... if anyone finds dorky picture of Daniel Radcliffe (Caleb), or Amanda Seyfried (Hilary) for that matter, you are always welcome to add them to the photo album when I post it. I need some people for their parents though, any ideas? Also they're cousin will be possibly Eve Myles who I might just have to create, but I'm babbling now so I'll shut up about them. Both ideas for each brother sound good to me, I love Paul Rudd so I would automatically vote for him, but I like all four choices! Stephan Colbert could be related to Norah!

Haha that's convenient because, to be honest, I'm exactly the same, I absolutely love looking through the photo albums. That and writing/reading owl letters is so much fun. Oh and I'm with Cara, Paul Rudd=awesome, enough said? And you know I love him from the old CatS, haha, I loved the little Clueless reunion we had going on with him and Amanda. haha I think Jason Sudeikis in particular looks like a bit like John Krasinski, I mean I see the resemblance but hey... I'm crap with this, haha. Anyways Stephan Colbert related to Norah... I say yes.

Can I just say, I love the photo album, Telle, it's fab! And I am enjoying the use of the Mighty Boosh reference of the whole "you're a French duke if I ever saw one" to apply to Alex. I'm in need of younger actors to be the appearance of Alistair and Amy's kids. Rhys is supposed to be 17/18 and Natasha 16/17, I've been using (only cos I couldn't be arsed looking for age-appropriate pics), JRM and Miranda Raison who are obviously way too old, so I could do with younger actors that look vaguely like Armitages. Any ideas?

Sorry Emma, I stole your kid from you, hehe. And Telle I love the Binns photo album!! Emma, as for children, although yes I am absolutely rubbish when it comes to seeing resemblances, perhaps Aaron Johnson could fit as the son, and maybe Lyndsy Fonseca as the daughter, I dunno who she is but she was another actress in a film Aaron was in when I looked up his imdb because I remembered his name from somewhere, but she isn’t blonde so honestly I have no idea. Aaron has dark hair and kind of bluey-green eyes maybe he could look somewhat like Alistair, I have no idea obviously. Right, I'm really bad at trying to find relatives for people so I'm going to shut up right now and go off to find my 'pair of scissors made out of glitter,' a little less posh then Telle's exit but it still involves glitter! Yes, I'm a wee bit hyper right now and apparently very random, can you tell?

For a blonde, maybe Dianna Agron? (I just think she's pretty and want someone to use her somewhere, sue me. And yeah, the Binns family is pretty much bursting at the seams with pure awesome!
