Curtisland

  1. A quasi-mythologised version of England as depicted in the films of Richard Curtis.
    • 2009 March 22, Tim Adams, The Observer:
      Curtisland was among the least "cool" products of Cool Britannia, but it was always perfect for export; Britain was suddenly a sunny, witty, self-deprecating, charming kind of place, a Doris Day film by the Thames in which it was forever Christmas.
    • 2015, Dominic Sandbrook, The Great British Dream Factory, Penguin, published 2016, page 74:
      Both Avengerland and Curtisland are firmly rooted in an idealized, romanticized version of contemporary Britain.
