Her Majesty would need some dragons. Or a plan as cunning as a fox what used to be Professor of Cunning at Oxford University but has moved on, and is now working for the UN at the High Commission of International Cunning Planning.

I met Tony Robinson on the Tube when I was abroad for a class on WWII. He was shooting for a show on how the underground had been used as shelter during the Battle of Britain. I was so dumbfounded (first time I'd met a celebrity, even a cunning one) that all I could stammer out was that I had seen him as Baldrick on what I eloquently called "the show." Why I could remember Baldrick and not Blackadder at that moment is beyond me.

Me trying to to think of things the yanks are better at than the Brits. I can't think of anything. The Brits are awesome.

Guitars

 

My fender strat is better than any uk guitar i've ever had :)

Let me commit some heresy here: I think Japan does the best guitars. I love my Gibson Flying V and it does sound great, but the production quality pales in comparsion to my (a lot cheaper and still great sounding) Ibanez bass.

 

Would love to visit the UK one day, especially for the food however odd that may sound!

On the topic of things the Brits do better than the Yanks: my wife and I are watching the American version of The Office (she's seen most of it before; I dropped out around season 2/3), and while I enjoy bits of it, the British original is waaaaay better - and I've only seen ≈3 episodes of it.
