Martin Freeman
John Simm
think I can tell them apart but do momentarily think one is the other on seeing them.

In that vein, I tend to confuse Martin Clunes (from Men Behaving Badly) and the guy who plays the main characters' teacher in The Inbetweeners. Though I guess I wouldn't confuse them if I saw them in real life, because the Inbetweeners guy appears to be a giant.

Toby Jones
Toby Young

I genuinely have a mental block on Toby Young's name and keep thinking he's called Toby Jones. I totally know who Toby Jones is, and that he's not Toby Young. I know who Toby Young is but I can never remember that he's not called Jones.

but weirdly, never pallet and either of the other two.
