I've heard that's why all phone numbers in USA start with 555.

Whoever your new avatar is, it still is much better than the last one Jat. Such a relief that you switched. My aesthetic sense no longer revolts when I look at your avatar.

No, you can't. I've been told that the cake is a lie. Have a cheeseburger.

In American movies and TV, I obviously meant. No real numbers start with 555. I'll apologise for the grammar (and I already have), but I believe the content was clear enough.

You mean American movies and TV are lying to me. Why has no-one told me this before?

Here in the UK we have a much more sensible approach. There is a whole department in British Telecom devoted to creating realistic fake numbers for TV and film.

I think all phone numbers used in TV shows should go directly to premium rate lines. Anyone idiotic enough to phone them deserves to be parted from their money.
