Inconsistencies or plot holes in films

Why does Keira Knightley play herself in the Waitrose ad but Joe Wilkinson play someone else?

Maybe I've misremembered it, but Joe did look like his usual, shambolic self-deprecating character.

But assuming you're right .. maybe because Ikea is much better known? So the joke will still work for viewers who have never seen Joe before?

Joe Wilkinson is on TV a lot more than Keira Knightley, his face is a lot more familiar.

Joe who?

Edit:- I did Google him and yes I have seen him. That I had to Google him sums it up though.

How often is Kiera on TV?

Monthly? Weekly?
...
Every night?

He's a good argument for the re-introduction of national service!

He’s acting a character on TV. He isn’t really a drunken lazy slob.
He’s now T-total and quite a normal guy who plays football with his friends and runs marathons.

I was thinking of his unkempt appearance rather than how many time he helps old ladies adross rhe road each week.

He plays a postman in Afterlife who delivers to Ricky Gervis who fixes him with the local sex worker.

Really?

I recognised Kiera Knightly immediately, I had no idea who the guy was.

Just looked him up, and it looks like he is one of those people who is famous for being famous. There is quite a long list of panel show type programs he has been on, none of which I have watched recently (Used to watch Have I got News For You, and Never Mind the Buzzcocks, but haven't for at least 15 years), and a few comedy series that I have also never watched.

Why?

I have heard of the program. Never seen it, or seen anything about it which would tend to make me want to watch.

what I’m alluding to is that he doesn’t just appear on game shows which is what you are alluding to.
Its almost like like your trying post your like lack of awareness of what’s current popular comedy.

Perhaps you should have read all of my post then, since I did say "and a few comedy series".

But yes, I have very little awareness of current popular comedy.

I have zero awareness of current popular "comedy" other than Sarah Milican, who is as funny as a dose of the squits but who Mrs D finds amusing.
