1. I'd guess that that's the Metropolitan Police rather than the Beeb.

But it is rather concerning as a picture.

3. True.. I thought police stations hired real artists

..guess the real one's on vacation.. :)

4. At least he is easy to identify

Honestly, I'll instantly recognize anybody looking like this

9. A guy like that's gotta be a FReeper

Can't you just picture him living in a cave and dragging his wife around by the hair?

6. They call that a strong jaw line? That's the understatement of the year!

7. The police don't use sketch artists ...

they have a "picture book" with the faces divided into sections, like a flip book.

When they get a description of a person, white male, short red hair, small nose, cleft chin, etc., they open each book section to those features and use that to make a composite.
