Alsop and Ramsay: Separated at Birth?


Private Eye has just given us some "food for thought" thanks to an observant reader. As if the beleagered maestra didn't already have enough troubles, now this:

"Sir,

"The resemblance between TV chef Gordon Ramsay and Marin Alsop, the controversially appointed musical director of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra (right), is striking. Chef d’orchestre, indeed.

ADAM WARD,
London SE1."

Memo to copy editor: Despite your captions, Alsop's photo is at left and Ramsay's is at right!
