Kristin Scott Thomas was given an OBE in the 2003 Queen's Birthday Honours list and was also awarded the Legion d'Honneur by the French government in 2005. She has also played in many TV movies and as an actress in the theatre.
In the British motoring program Top Gear she is used as a point of reference of "good taste". During the Cool Wall segment of the program, presenter Jeremy Clarkson rates a car's coolness based mostly on what he thinks Kristin Scott Thomas's level of distaste for it would be. Generally, cars that are flashy or obscene are considered Uncool or Seriously Uncool (e.g. supercars), while cars that are innovative or unusual are considered Cool or Sub-Zero (e.g. most super-minis). The only real exceptions to the Kristin Scott Thomas rule are Aston Martins and cars that the presenters themselves own, which are usually automatically placed in the Sub-Zero (or better) and Seriously Uncool sections respectively.
