As for the Spice Girls though.....that's not ok.

Absolutely, I agree, and I think the majority of people would consider themselves to be from the country they were born and raised in rather than where their ancestry originated.

I brought it up mainly to annoy the Brits (), but also because I think it's an interesting and little known fact, and it means that all of the beatles could (had they wanted to) claim to be Irish as all of them have at least one Irish parent or grandparent. This would also enable them to play for the Irish football team, which quite frankly might be a good idea at the moment, considering they could only manage a draw last night against possibly the worst Swiss team to ever take to the field).

Interestingly, I have never met anyone from Liverpool who considers themselves to be English - they either consider themselves Irish or Liverpudlian, but refuse to be classed as English! I guess their is a level of perceived autonomy in Liverpool that doesn't exist anywhere else in England.

Yes, I'm a major Red Dwarf fan, but I had no idea they were planning a movie. I just looked up the official site ( http://www.reddwarf.co.uk/ ) for some info and I guess I'm not a as big a fan as I thought I was - they started work on it 4 years ago!

Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast.

I'm going start a Spice Girls thread

Natisse said:

You should. There's a Marky Mark thread over there.

And the usual 50 Cent and Chingy crap.

Oh! But the Spice Girls are brilliant!

HA! They don't get any better than these people!

Have I mentioned I have a bit of a thing for this woman?:

Kate Bush alone make sme wanna become a citizen.
















New Order, English Beat...someone's already mentioned PJ All I can think of for now as far as music. I'm not a huge Who and Pink Floyd fan, but they deserve a mention.

It's so many,but if I posted every pic of everything associated with the British that I like....this thread would be cluttered.

Ace said:

As should everyone.



(Love her! )

I know I said I wasn't gonna post another pic. But I gotta post Jamie Oliver. I watch his show a lot. Emeril just doesn't do it for me anymore.

WHAT? How could you forget these five sexy, talented men? Britain, bless you for...



I also bow down to you for...



And...



And...



And...



And finally...



I love the British!

Damn. I really use to love the Young Ones. I have fond memories of watching the show when it aired on MTV in the eighties. This show kicked Monty Python's ass in my opinion b/c it combined comedy with live musical performances.

I'm glad you took the time to post my boy. I love the Naked Chef. His show has a cool vibe and kickass recipes. He is on the Food Channel in the US.

Absolutely-it's a classic! I have all the episodes on DVD but it's still cool knowing it comes on PBS during the big British comedy marathons they have every Saturday and Sunday.

subhuman09 said:

I found out that it also comes on BBC America Channel.

As long as there's an antidote to network crap.

Sorry to be a pedant but according to VH1:

"The stepdaughter of jazz trailblazer Don Cherry, vocalist Neneh Cherry forged her own groundbreaking blend of pop, dance, and hip-hop which presaged the emergence of both alternative rap and trip-hop. She was born Neneh Mariann Karlssson on March 10, 1964, in Stockholm, Sweden , the daughter of West African percussionist Amadu Jah and artist Moki Cherry. Raised by her mother and her trumpeter stepfather in both Stockholm and New York City, Cherry dropped out of school at age 14, and in 1980 she relocated to London to sing with the punk group the Cherries."


Oh well, if it's any concerlation, I used to think she was from Bristol when I was younger because of her appearance on the first Massive Attack album.
