I got some F&C outside Upton Park in 2006 and the newspaper was there in full glory...maybe they knew i was a tourist looking for the "authentic" British experience
I have on occasion still got fish & chips wrapped in newspaper. Bloody lovely stuff, with mushy peas & a nice pickled onion or two! & the shop round the corner from me used to give away free bags of batter bits, basically the left over bits from the fish. They bloody charge for 'em now!!
Back in the day we were so t'poor that we kept the newspaper & used it for t'bog roll.

That may have been imitation. There are someplaces that do paper with fake newsprint for the traditional look but i think mainly in largely tourist areas.
I love this sketch, can't believe they said "nothing" though instead of "nowt" and the occassional pronunciation of "h"s. Good to hear a Yorkshire accent on TV though, especially in comedy
YORKSHIRE RULES!!!The new one's not as good though, the accents're terrible lol
As the last two years have shown, there are some fans over here. Wembley was sold out both times so I guess it would be the same.
Although I'm sure if that did happen a lot of Americans would be pissed off?
It's worse than that mate, the biscuit in question is something like a scone but without all the things that make a scone interesting (dried fruit, sugar) and the gravy rather than being the brown nectar we are used to (that turn of phrase was more elegant in my head) is a nondescript white goo.Awright geeezzaa! American "biscuits an' gravy" sounds right disgustin' yeah?
Whadd you fink mate?
(aaahr biscuits are da sweet ones . Know what I mean?)
I'd rarfer eat me some 'ard tack
Innit!
The only thing that could possibly make that meal worse is to add chipped beef.
How come English people don't have any teeth?
Does England have a Space Program and if so, have you gone to the moon yet?
Do you have any more colonies?
Are you allowed to vote and if so, is it only for a king or queen or can you vote for the best singer?
How tall is the tallest British person and do they play basketball and if so, is basketball called something else over there?

What has Eddie the Eagle been up to lately?
He went back to being a plasterer (installing sheet rock), opened a few supermarkets, went bankrupt (at least once) and now gets by as a building contractor, local celebrity and presenter/DJ on a local radio station (BBC Gloucester).
I hear that he donated his glasses to NASA... they are going to use them as focussing lenses, in their new space telescope.
We get all our nourishment from beer, teeth are unnecessary
Yes, it's documented in this TV series http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0468431/
Also, the fanzine for the football team I support is called Fly Me to The Moon
We still have a scattering of colonies (though they're now called Overseas Territories")

We get to vote a lot these days. Not only do we get to make important votes such as who gets to be in the latest West End musical produced by Andrew Lloyd Webber and which incredibly talentless person gets to represent the UK in Eurovision but we also have trivial elections like
- National elections
- Local elections
- European elections
to foster the illusion of democracy
Depending on who's tallest:
Chris Greener 7' 6" used to play basketball (or as we call it in the UK, basketball) in the UK
Neil Fingleton (7' 7", unratified) has played basketball (or as we call it in the UK, basketball) in the US

We have very sharp gums.
We colonised the Moon in Queen Victoria's time.We don't send people there as it's pointless because there aren't any pubs there.
We can vote.Unfortunately too many people vote for the wrong person.
Since we abolished the rack we haven't got so many tall people any more.
