French contestants of the famous cooking show "Masterchef", from the three available seasons. I couldn't find the surname of all, so I guess maybe two or three arn't ethnic French. Last one hails from Wallonia but lives in France.
Where would they fit the best?

Globally they don't overlap with anyone but themselves. They have a distinct French look. If anything, as a whole, they would pretty much overlap with québécois. Individually, I could place some of them in Flanders, Walonia, SW Germany and Switzerland.

Yes, I agree. But the few who would fit outside France(Wallonia, Québec and Romandie too ofc), where do you think they fit better?

Out of the options I would pick Great Britain as well.

Even if they look closer to Brits, they still don't look like Brits, if you know what I mean. Can only judge from where I am, maybe could lap in South England?

Yes, I agree the overlap is restricted to an individual level. Luc mentioned this too.

Good idea for a thread, i'm gonna start one with contestants from here.
Slightly leaning into Great Britain but collectively in Europe they have distinct look.

Certainly a good example of Nordics?

As a group they won't pass in Italy or Spain, the look is bit too northern for those 2 countries but I can see a few individuals passing.
As a group probably closer to Britain and Germany, perhaps even a cross between those 2.

You can find those types on the French border areas with Germany, Italy and Spain. Probably overall Britain. Technically now there is a "land" border with France and Britain now with the Channel Tunnel.

Looking at those pictures, I have similar faces from pictures of northern Italians.

I agree french look is too northern for Spain.
Frenchs pass best as Brits or Germans.

I voted for Germany because overall I think they have a more continental look although individually some can easily pass as british. Just a bit too northern looking overall for Spain and italy.

I voted Britain but Germany comes in a close second. (As a group of course, individually we could spread them around)
When I posted photos of family members (and myself) people said we would fit in the UK or Germany but we never got Spain.
I guess we resemble our northern neighbors more than we resemble our southern ones.

Britain.
I think French can be similar to different countries depending of its region. Southern French overlap more with Northern Iberian and Northern Italian and the rest more to countries like Swiss/Belgium/Germany and few times Brits. French don't overlap that much with British (except in these pictures), they have both distinct looks, easy to recognize although similarities can happen and are not rare but to a lesser extent than our "land" neighbors.
However, I think French have a specific look in Europe in general, easy to recognize (but thats normal I said that because I meet them everyday lol)
