Kevin Bridges and his wife Kerry have delighted fans after they dressed up as John Lennon and Yoko Ono for Halloween . Sharing a picture on social media , the Scots comedian could be seen wearing a wig paired with the late Beetles star's iconic round glasses. He raised his hand to give the peace sign, while Kerry - wearing a white dress, hat and sunglasses - held up a placard with the words 'give peace a chance' written across the front. Fans were left in stitches as they headed to the comments section to react to the costumes. One person wrote: "Absolutely nailed it kids!" While another added: "This is a winner!!" Others were quick to highlight another resemblance, though, with one commenter saying: "Yoko Ono and Ozzy Osbourne?" A second added: "You look more like Ozzy", while a third quipped: "Shaaaaaaron". Bridges , who is currently on tour in the US, once made a joke about Halloween in Glasgow as he described it as a "hallucinogenic experience". Speaking on stage during his 'The Story Continues' tour in 2012, he said: "We don't really have a laidback festival, carnival culture. Everybody gets dressed up, but there's still violence on the streets. "I've walked down Sauchiehall Street on Halloween and I thought I was on something. "Everybody is dressed up but emotions still run high.... There's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles kicking f*** out of SpongeBob SquarePants. "Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz, she's eating chips and cheese shouting 'Barry f***ing leave him!'" It comes after Still Game creator Ford Kiernan told of his delight at seeing children dressed as characters from the show at Halloween . The actor and writer, who penned the hit BBC sitcom with Greg Hemphill, said he is bombarded with hundreds of pictures every year of youngsters guising as pensioners Jack and Victor and busybody Isa. Kiernan , 63, said the costumes were a tribute to the much-loved comedy’s impact on Scottish culture. The series, which ended in 2019, is still being watched by millions after being made available on streaming service Netflix and many viewers weren’t born when the original episodes aired. Kiernan , who played Jack Jarvis, said he has even had children come to his house on Halloween while dressed as his character. Speaking on The Ford and Shelby Show podcast, Kiernan , said: “I get, without exaggeration, a couple of hundred photographs every year, so does Greg, of people done up as us or done up as Isa. “That’s what happens now at Halloween and it’s completely weird. I get loads of lovely photos and I have had weans at the door dressed up as me. “The mums and dads like them getting dressed up as me. They don’t want them done up as scary things from Chucky or Saw. You feel as if, ‘Well, for that couple of decades I was in the culture enough for people to want to dress up as our characters’. “So there’s a bit of a buzz to be had out of that. It’s a difficult concept to understand but it’s quite charming, I can assure you.”
