Tl;Dr: using facial recognition software, the BBC is able to prove that a bunch of people that showed up in Putin's Christmas video were actors playing different roles in prior videos with an almost 100% match.

Social media is awash with claims, repeated on news websites, that Russian President Vladimir Putin surrounded himself with actors for his New Year's address and at previous events. But what's the evidence?

The guy who has been obvious assassination bait for twenty years is not going to do photo ops with randos.
Russia has been Potemkin Village: the Country since the tzar was still alive and maybe before. This is not a secret.

I mean, I don't think anybody is shocked to hear that he uses actors to protect himself. I just found it particularly interesting that technology is at a point where facial recognition software can be used to explicitly prove what up until now was just a commonly held... I don't want to call it a conspiracy theory, but I'm not sure what else would be a better thing to call it.
