db Lookalikes: Lewis / Dale

It’s very difficult when reporting Tesco’s results not to be reminded of a certain character from Ramsey Street from many, many years ago…

New Zealand-born actor Alan Dale (below) has popped up in a host of different places since leaving Neighbours in 1993, including a stint as NCIS’s Homeland Security Director Tom Morrow, as erstwhile publisher Bradford Meade in Ugly Betty and the well-named Lost. But the closest he may have come to his doppleganger Dave Lewis, group chief executive of Tesco, was a brief cameo as Secretary of Commerce in the brilliant NBC series, The West Wing.
