Disagreed! The original beard puts me in mind of one of the teachers at school, not a bad or even a mildly creepy bloke, but the sort of man of the older generation, who'd put leather patches on the elbows of his jackets, you know what I mean. The clean-shaven end picture is how I generally picture Reynolds as a thirty-something guy I would happily go for a drink with. The ones in between... I would not want to be alone in a room with them.
