They'll just have to suck it up, same as we do with references to steam tunnels, obscure American shows that never appear over here, and odd spelling.

No, there will be loud complaints about the show being "inaccessible" to an international audience.

Such things can be mysterious to those of us this side of the pond.

I remember I was reading this journal when I had the moment where I went "So that's why one of the cardinals in Monty Python's Spanish Inquisition sketch was wearing aviator goggles!"

Oh yes... also referenced many other times in Python canon.
