Is the beard on its way out? @antsrantz and beardie @malodoherty disagree #BBCNolan

The beard is on its way out! The facial fuzz, which has enjoyed a comeback in recent years amongst hipsters, is declining in popularity.

What do you think - will you miss the streets being full of Brian Blessed lookalikes or do you prefer the clean shaven look?
