In this episode of A Really British Podcast, we're breaking down 10 unmistakable signs that Britain has quietly rewired the way you think, talk, and behave...whether you noticed it happening or not.

From your sudden love of a proper cup of tea, to your new-found respect for a well-formed queue, these are the quirks that separate a tourist from someone who's genuinely gone native. Some of these will make you laugh, some might surprise you and hopefully you'll finish the video with smile on your face. This is just a bit of fun and not meant to be serious in any way.

Count how many of the 10 signs describe you, and drop your score in the comments👇

Season two of our podcast begins with a look at British weddings.

Annie and I talk about the traditions and customs of a really British wedding from the proposal through to saying 'I do'. There is so much to discuss so we'll have a part two coming out very soon.

We'd love to know how a wedding in your country differs from one in the UK.

Please share your observations in the comments.

In today's episode of A Really British Podcast, Annie and I are back with the second part of How to be British. We discuss British people's love of dogs, saying sorry and tea amongst other things. Sorry again for the blurry video quality, it's my bad. I didn't press the right button on my camera. We filmed this with the first part hence the same mistake. As you can see from the opening, I have learned how to press the right button...finally!🤦‍♂️

This is the last episode in season 1 of the podcast. We'll be back with season 2 but we need you to tell us what subjects you'd like us to cover.

Make sure you follow our main YouTube channel @AReallyBritishPodcast It's where season 2 will be and you can also get bonus content there too.
