Warning: This articles contains spoilers for The Traitors

The third season of The Traitors has meant that new faces have been introduced to the Scottish Manor, and one in particular is a little too familiar for some to handle.

We’re so close to the end of the season for this hit BBC series, and we’ll all final learn tonight whether the remaining Faithfuls or the Traitors - AKA, Charlotte - will take home the prize money.

So, we all know by now that we’ve got Leanne, Francesca, Alexander and Jake still in the ranks, with final Traitor Charlotte having found herself backed into a corner after Francesca was awarded the position of The Seer - but Alexander is the talk of the nation right now.

And eagle-eyed fans can't help but think that his looks are that of a very familiar face.

Of course, this also comes off the back of Francesca being recognised on the reality TV programme too, with social media users knowing exactly where they’ve seen her face before.

One X user theorised: "I can't explain it, but Francesca is giving major Natasha Richardson in The Parent Trap energy."

"I’ve never read something so accurate in my life!" exclaimed a second, while a third beamed: "She’s lovely really and yea you are right. That’s who she reminds me of..."

Now that Francesca has been clocked, Alexander has been given his own celebrity look-alikes too.

Online, users have sworn that they’ve seen his face from somewhere, and it’s giving 'Mark Darcy' vibes.

One person wrote: “Alexander has such bumbling british love interest in a romcom energy," as another said: "Oh I love Alexander, he’s been the absolute star of #TheTraitors with his 90s romcom lead energy!"

Someone else penned: “Alexander really is like a Hugh Grant-Richard Curtis romcom character come to life.”

Over on Reddit, most people were saying that he’s got the look of a young Collin Firth, specifically his Richard Curtis, Bridget Jones aesthetic.

We couldn’t agree more.

Someone said: “Yes, I think it’s because he looks like he’s walked straight out of a 200s Richard Curtis film. He’s very charming and charismatic but also soft and a little fragile which seems to drive a lot of us absolutely crazy.”

"It’s Patrick Dempsey. That’s who Alexander reminds me of. Finally!!!!," said another.

Crazy indeed.

In other news, former Traitor Minah revealed she was lying to viewers about one key detail throughout her time on the series.

Speaking to BBC News, she said: "I say I'm from Liverpool because my friends say I'm an adopted Scouser.

"But I'm actually not from Liverpool. But I'm not having anyone say I'm not!"

The final of The Traitors airs tonight at 08.30pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
