Giant's Causeway
Interlocking basalt columns in Northern Ireland
Summary
The Giant's Causeway is an area of approximately 40,000 interlocking basalt columns, the result of an ancient volcanic fissure eruption, part of the North Atlantic Igneous Province active in the region during the Paleogene period. It is located in County Antrim on the north coast of Northern Ireland, about three miles (4.8 km) northeast of the town of Bushmills.

IMDB is not a reliable source. Per [[WP:IMDB]]. And, even if it were, doesn't support this discursive and promotional editorial ("popular"? "icons"? "notably shown"?). And, even if we removed that, a fleeting appearance at this site (by Jedward or anyone else) is reflective of the notability of the site. Not the other way around. (Any more than a film shot at the Eifel Tower makes it "more" notable.) See Talk for previous trivia/popculture discussions.
