2003 yili Buyuk Britaniyaning BBC korporatsiyasi barcha zamonlarning eng yaxshi romanlarini aniqlash uchun so‘rovnoma o‘tkazgan. Bir yil davomida Buyuk Britaniyaliklarning eng yaxshi ko‘rgan kitoblarini aniqlash uchun 1 millionga yaqin ovoz yig‘ilgan. Ovozlar sayt, SMS va qo‘ng‘iroqlar orqali to‘plangan.

Dastlabki bosqichda britaniyaliklar ovoz bergan eng yaxshi kitoblar natijasiga ko‘ra, kuchli 200 talik ro‘yxat tuzilgan. Eng katta natijani qo‘lga kiritgan 21 roman (bir muallifning faqatgina bitta asari olingan) keyingi bosqichda baholangan.
Kuchli 200 talikdan asarlari eng ko‘p o‘rin olgan angliyalik yozuvchilar Terri Pratchett (15 ta romani o‘rin olgan), Jaklin Uilson (14), Roald Dal (9), Charlz Dikkens (7), Tomas Xardi (4), Joan Roulingdir (4).
