   Me: I think what it means is that the characters who are British 
in the book should be portrayed by actors from the same region as 
their counterpart. And as for the various charactors that are foreign 
in either looks or actuality...Fleur in my opinion should be French, 
Victor should be Bulgarian and Cho, well, I agree with whoever said 
in an earlier post..that she should be asian in appearance but live 
in Brittain. Something about her makes me think that she was raised 
in England.
