From Victoria:
You buy the soundtrack for 'Mama Mia' just because Leah Sue Morland & James Baron are in the choir. (Honestly, its got their names in the little booklet)
You see an add for Pall Mall cigarettes and you think, "Bustopher Jones?"

You watch British movies just to see if any of the British CATS cast are in them.
