Look-a-likes
Perhaps not the most flattering look-a-like of Enid but it made me laugh nonetheless .....
Any others ?

I think it's that hair style. It's very much of a certain social class, age and era
I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion.
I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate.
All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.
Time to die.

The Wizard of Oz was on tv today and made me think again of this post
Re: Look-a-likes
No doubt about it, Margaret Hamilton who played The Wicked Witch of the West in The Wizard of Oz bears a very uncanny resemblance to Enid Blyton. Here is a picture of Margaret taken later in her career, judge for yourselves.

Maybe Stephen's book, The Famous Five: A Personal Anecdotage will have something to say about this!

I have actually re-checked the source of this picture to make sure that I had not made a mistake. It really is Margaret Hamilton, here is the webpage where the picture appears.
Now, where is my Wizard of Oz DVD?

Re: Look-a-likes
A quite amazing similarity. Perhaps its Enid's evil twin.

Here at thestudentguide.com our emails are down so we were wondering, does Harry Styles look like Enid Blyton?
Is it the vivacious curly hair? Is it the pouting lips?
Both have entertained children the world over and have brought joy to many.

Re: Look-a-likes
The picture of Margaret Hamilton is amazingly like Enid. Somehow I couldn't quite see it in the original post, when a photo of Margaret with green witch face was shown!!!
