These are the characters chosen to represent average British teenagers

Here's a picture of the actor and actress that England chose to demonstrate their Anglo-Saxon heritage to the world, in the Olympics. This clearly demonstrates why Obama is unable to fully appreciate the US and the UK's special relationship and shared history:



Here are the actors, who bear the traditional Anglo-Saxon names of Henrique Costa and Jasmine Breinburg.

Eee, thank you for this picture of those two gorgeous young people.

(And for this post, which has me giggling in delight.)

Did you watch the ceremony? They were the characters of Frankie and June in the segment called "Frankie and June say Thanks, Tim."

It's about how teenagers love texting, social media, music, flirting, and parties. The "Tim" in question is Tim Berners-Lee -- who was actually on stage for the end of the dance number.

Oh I did, and I loved that segment -- I watched it twice -- even though, to my entertainment, my reaction to the kiss was "Are they old enough?!" (I'm getting oooooold.) I want to ask Jasmine about her hair care regimen. I had meant to find a picture of them for my Lovely Images file, and here it is in your journal.

Lis found it. And it was NOT EASY! And it's nowhere near the best image of them. It OUGHT to be that every single frame that has the two of them in it ought to be a jpeg somewhere online, and this was the only one that Lis could find.

*waves gratefully to Lis*

If I come across anything better I'll let you know, though I doubt I will find anything not found by one with Librarian Superpowers.

There was so much to love about this particular segment. Not the least of which is that Henrique has Charisma 18:00.
