Storyline
Every man's dream comes true for William Thacker, an unsuccessful Notting Hill bookstore owner, when Anna Scott, the world's most beautiful woman and best-liked actress, enters his shop. A little later, he still can't believe it himself, William runs into her again - this time spilling orange juice over her. Anna accepts his offer to change in his nearby apartment, and thanks him with a kiss, which seems to surprise her even more than him. Eventually, Anna and William get to know each other better over the months, but being together with the world's most wanted woman is not easy - neither around your closest friends, nor in front of the all-devouring press. Written by Julian Reischl <julianreischl@mac.com>

Trivia
Omid Djalili plays the Cashier at the Coffee Shop (uncredited) - he was filming The Mummy at the same time at the same studios so was conscripted to fill in the part, very conveniently. (Blink and you could miss him serving Hugh Grant the orange juice that he soon spills on 'Julia Roberts'.) See more »Goofs
Continuity: When Anna first comes into William's house and William tells her the way to the bathroom, the blackboard beside William says in big letters "SPIKE CLEAN UP". In the next shot from behind William the letters on the blackboard are much smaller. See more »Quotes
William: [about Anna's new film project] Any horses in that one? Or hounds for that matter; our readers are intrigued by both species.Anna Scott: [seriously] It takes place on a submarine.
