Primrose Hill set

The Primrose Hill set is a name often applied to a group of British film and television actors who achieved celebrity in the mid-1990s. The term grew in use in the British media to identify the group as socially homogeneous and also as a convenient label similar to the Young British Artists and Britpop labels of the same period. Many of the groups members appeared with each other in film and television productions in the mid-nineties and later cast each other in their own productions.
