I scored a whooping 9/24 (38%) and by the Goverment Guidelines should be deported.

Full Version: How British Are You
I got 45% which would of got rejected.
I'm not British anyway, I'm English, so fuck it.

same here but the questions are ridiculous, its all guess work, I didnt answer one question with any kind of confidence
11/24
Yeah, we had this test before on here, had you been allowed to study the literature for some time, like all exams, you'd be reet.
29%. I'm out.
58% but some of the answers are wrong.
E.g. How many bank holidays are there per year in the UK?
They say 4
One, the bank holidays aren't uniform across the whole UK. England and Wales have a different number to Scotland. Two, it's more than 4 either way.
Fuck you Channel 4, I'm staying.

There are different bank and public holidays in different parts of the UK. There are currently six permanent bank holidays in England and Wales and an additional one in 2012. Christmas Day and Good Friday are public holidays...
There are seven permanent bank holidays across the whole of Scotland...
In Northern Ireland, there are eight permanent bank holidays - the same six as in England and Wales, plus St Patrick's Day and the Anniversary of the Battle of the Boyne in 1690. Christmas Day and Good Friday are public holidays.

9/24, fuck the union jack.
I scored 10 out of 24, with 42%. Oh well I guess!
Sure we've done simliar before. 20/24
71%, failed, almost all guesses.
33%.
See you in Australia...
See you in Australia...
54%. meh.
54%
Guessed most.
Guessed most.
That's an incredibly silly, ill-thought out test.
How on earth is anyone, British or otherwise, supposed to know most of that shit? The only way you could know it is if it's like the driving theory test where they're part of a set bank of questions from a handbook to memorise. Virtually no-one will just happen to know most of that through normal means or having an interest in the country.

I got 10/24. The bank holiday one can't be right though.
Oh say can you see? I got 54%, and my American wife, who knows nothing about the UK, got 50%. I am shame.
8/24. No questions about Ireland. Racists.

I'd wager that's because Ireland isn't part of the UK.
I was hoping this was judged on things like:
How do you keep the sun off your head?
a) hankie with knots in the corners
b) baseball cap
c) fedora

What the f....oh bums, omitted the rather important N. at the beginning. Must learn to re-read before posting.
Edit: Due to not re-reading.
I got 15/24. Some I knew, some I guessed. It'd be fairly easy to revise for though.
38% which is fine by me because I consider myself Scottish and in no way British. I got the ones about votes for women and the NHS correct because I studied them back in school.
I don't even care enough to take the test, so on the strength of that I'd say "not very British".

Sounds pretty British to me.
Are we an apathetic people, by nature?
eh.

God damn. Might as well pack bags and go home.

Joking aside, yes. We don't have the optimism that permeates the yanks, thank fuck. Even in the most cynical American cities, they are frequently stuck on the RAH-RAH-RAH setting.

So did David and look what happened to him
I got 58%, most were guesses, only knew a few for definite (NHS, Bank Holidays)
Does it ask if you support Andy Murray when he's winning, then revert back to English when he loses?
Ahh.. you're back Duane! I saw this post yesterday and thought of you.

Cool! How did you know I was a V fan? Used to love watching V. Not seen the new series, but liked the original.
Do you want to get me one for my birthday mate?
Hang on, Duane, you're on Team Cena? But that's going with the masses. You're not even allowed to be on Team Rock. You should be on Team Referee or Team Timekeeper.
