I read that and thought, 'Some of us are British without being English!' :lol:

Seriously, not much of that applies to life over here :oops:

You’re awkward. You’re easily embarrassed. You’re sickeningly polite. You’re as British as they come!

Harsh but fair.

There aren’t many more British (or awkward) than you. The Empire is lucky to have you.

Perhaps this would be a better indicator than ancestry? Do you think the BNP would pass or fail?

I got Stephen Fry

I got 'As British as Stephen Fry walking a corgi outside Buckingham Palace'. That's pretty British.

I got: As British as Kevin Costner’s Robin Hood

Which is to say, not very British at all. But you’re probably a much happier, more well-adjusted person for it.

I'm horrified to admit, mine came out as "Probably American".

Or David Beckham’s left foot, come to think of it. Though at heart you’re British, you’ve seen enough of the world to make you realise there’s more to life than emotional repression.
