I've heard them all except "as keen as mustard". I've also never heard "a tempest in a teacup" in the USA (have lived here for over 40 years). You should have mentioned "don't get your knickers in a twist".

A little birdie told me that this channel is one of the most quintessential British.....❤❤ Subsequently, when I told this thing to my friends they replied no we have a lot of channels already. The thoughts flashed through my mind that I am flogging the dead horse. Frankly, I'm just bearing the burnt of my actions because I also said these things to my friends at that time they recommended me something... Well, the pot calling the kettle black😲👍 LOADS OF LOVE FROM MY SIDE. I PONDERED THIS IS ENOUGH BECAUSE I DEEPLY ND ACUTELY NEED TO SPEND A PENNY.....🙈

Homework: 1. He keeps trying to get it published but I think he's flogging a dead horse 2. She feels like a fish out of water among celebrities. 3. I like that house. But there's a fly in the ointment: I have to commute so far to work. 4. A little bird told me that it is your job promotion party 5. I think there's some hanky-panky between Mr. Ben and his secretary. 6. Are not you the pot calling the kettle black? You are usually the last person to show up! 7. Anson was forced to eat humble pie and publicly apologise to her. Thank you.

Great British accent ! I live in Austria where the children are taught to pronounce every “a” (or “A”) as “e” (or “E”), for example “en epple” or “e men”. It was really refreshing for me to hear an “a” pronounced as such ! I think this anomaly originates from American English, as the Americans often pronounce an “a” as in “ha-emmer” and not just like “hammer”, however the Austrians and Germans are taught to pronounce it like “e hemmer”. My wife was often laughed at in the UK for example when she talked about a person having “e sore beck”, and a friend of mine quipped “Sore Beck? Is he by any chance related to Jeff Beck..???”. The level of English spoken by Austrian and German people is also considerably lower than that spoken e.g. in the Scandinavian countries or in the Benelux countries, but the local authorities just don’t care, as they are doing nothing to remedy or to improve on the situation..🤦
