I often think the British loose sight or take it for granted of all the things we do really well here in the UK

It's so nice, and refreshing to hear someone talk so warmly about the UK. There is so much negativity online so this was lovely to watch

We moved to Canada in 2019, and we still complain about the price/quality of the cheese. As a mouse, this was difficult to come to terms with.

I declare you an honorary Brit. Your observations of everything British is spot on and very genuine.

Lots of respect for talking about how "fast food" fish and chips is WAY better. To all foreigners: get fish and chips from a chippy (chip shop) by the seaside, NOT from a pub.

Fish and chips straight out of newspaper walking home, hot crispy and delicious. Much nicer than using knife, fork and plate.

One of my personal favourite insults is " he's about as useful as a chocolate fire guard ".

Just saw this and loved it! I'm Irish but have lived here for 39 years (just came for a change for a couple of years!) There is a lot to like about the UK and I will never take it forgranted!

Just when I feel like I'm completely done with this country, you come along with one of these videos and put everything into perspective and make me appreciate what we've got!

Once again Alanna nailed it as a british person we take all the things she's mention in her video for granted and we should appreciate it more Thanks for that Alanna we need more people like you x

In my country of Yorkshire ,we use the greeting " Eyup" which goes back two thousand years.

Been in Australia for 50 years and still miss a Ploughman's Lunch

'... finish at the pub' ... one of the best lines in the English language! Great list!

Thanks for this. It's become popular in recent years for British people to profess their hate for this country, its culture and all it stands for, so it's nice to hear somebody talk about the good parts of our land and culture. As far as public transport goes, we all complain pretty much constantly about the trains and the Tube, but let a foreigner badmouth them and we'll rally around like nobody's business. Actually they're pretty reliable, if not cheap; personally I only recently got round to getting my driving licence (at the age of 48!) since I've spent most of my working life in and around London and never really needed a car. As for history, well, my house is older than your country, so we'll leave it there :)

Looking after our buildings and bridges and giving them a 'Listed' status, so they can't be pulled down or changed, without local council's approval, should be on your list. Developer's who pulled down an old pub recently, were taken to Court, and were made to rebuild it. It means that we still have some nice old buildings next to the horrible modern office tower blocks.

I think I must be depressed. You've made me want to cry, listening to this. UK here.

Being a born and bred Brit I love your video’s they remind me that actually we have it pretty good for the most part and we tend to forget that sometimes. 😀👍💜

A full-English is the most amazing thing I’ve ever had in my life as an American who’s making the move to the Uk I have a lot of love for the UK 🇬🇧 ❤ I love black pudding and the culture is beautiful. I cannot wait to get shoes on ground and the dialects are really cool.

Thank you Alanna for this video. As a retired Brit now living alone in New England for 30+ years, I miss everything on your list plus starchy puddings with Birds custard, tarts, Boddingtons cream ale, Christmas foods, crumpets and toad in the hole. As a keen cyclist and hiker I miss the UK countryside and very walk-able towns and cities. I 'm fully aware of the gloomy news about the bad economy and terrible housing situation yet I am still driven to move back in a few years for the many positive things there. The U.S. has been really good to me career wise but its time to reconnect with my family, my culture, my history and my country.
