Oh, it's sooo British!

I just read that the majority of Americans still believe in stereotypes about the British. Why them? It is obvious that every nation and every man may still believe in stereotypes, but the British and Americans, are sometimes really nasty!

What can we find? Well things like:
- they are reserved, 
- they have an obsession about the class system,
- they drink a lot!
- they are still obesed about second world war, 
- they still have old - fashioned customs: tea time!
Everyone in Britain has a plummy accent and talks like the Queen
All Britons have bad teeth
Britons love to queue .... 

Ouf! it's a lot! I recommend you 2 articles to confirm this opinion. And you? Did you know about that?

  2. It's great to see TARDIS (the blue box) as a symbol of Britishness. Do you know what it is?
