Celebrites have Lost it

Recently I ranted about why we care about celebrities.

A great case in point has been made over in the UK. Recently, Sky One aired to specials on Lost, Lost Uncovered and Get Lost, which look at the Lost phenomenon and consider theories about it, etc., etc. Lots of 'talking head' interviews.

Any who were those talking heads? UK actors and singers and the like.

Why? Is there some special reason to expect that they've got a better hook into the series than the man on the street? Or the Lost fan fanatic who's followed every episode and even read the books? Just why are these people so special??

Admittedly, the Get Lost special features the more non-celebrity fans, but this just really highlights the point about Lost Uncovered...
