Yeah but Mr Bean was a stroke of genius - that tv show has been sold to nearly every country in the world so I think other nations watching have some idea about British eccentricity. Also I would think many countries would know the industrial revolution started in this country and many of them understand that if it wasn't for this great country of ours many of them would still be riding donkeys and living in mud huts.
We are pioneers in medicine, free healthcare, engineering, communications and technology and gave the world a glimpse of what we have achieved and the British spirit. Made me proud even though I felt there were many points in history that were missed like the invention of the steam engine for one and there were no national costumes. People keep referencing how it represented English country life - I thought it was about Great Britain.
British and proud - Rule Britannia!!
