I learned from this that British people think Morgan Freeman and Samuel L Jackson are the same person

I extracted the 200 most famous actors from YouGov's API, cleaned up the data using an IDE to produce a single JSON file, then imported and creating the scatter graph with Excel. I refined the image using Adobe Fireworks.

Note: In order to declutter the chart and reduce overlapping of certain plot points, I deliberately removed a number of actors from the list - mostly choosing to remove those who are not as famous outside of Britain. See the source for the comprehensive list, extended to beyond 700 actors.

Seeing Jack Black on the bottom-left corner is a bit sad

She made Natasha Richardson move to California and made McFly move to New York.

I feel like Jeff Bridges' location explains a lot about why things are difficult in Britain right now.
