They also partake in British pop culture, including riding on a double-decker bus, visiting a vintage UK fashion boutique, and dancing away at an authentic '60s discotheque! Betty and Veronica even become chic fashion models and the group gets to perform live on the BBC! It's a "Hard Déjà vu's Night" for bubblegum's premiere popsters! It's all brought to you by no less a pop music authority than Hal Lifson, author of the swingin' sixties coffee table tome, "Hal Lifson's 1966!"
