Hmmm... Even given the topicality, some of blue is obscure and it's only because I am interested in it that it made sense.

Only got blue because for some reason my brain said "American version" as I was staring forlornly at the screen.

My immediate thought on seeing the Americanism was 'Is this the obvious connection but with the American version?'
