Quite a lot of it is stuff that's covered in school here. Most of the questions about monarchs, the Romans etc are things we learn at school. The dates for Saints days are just common knowledge. The Canterbury Tales and other poets are really commonly studied at school. Hogmanay is a Scottish New Year's Eve celebration and it gets covered every year on the news. My favourite question was when it asked what was invented by Turing despite the answer literally having his name in it... Just tried to take one of the other quizzes and got 22/24, so I think for a British person who has decent general knowledge and has grown up here they're pretty easy, but tough if you didn't grow up learning our history

[@lwaves]

Whilst a lot of this is definitely covered in schools (generally speaking), it's fair to say that exactly what you were taught depends on the school and the time period you attended. For example, I was never taught Canterbury Tales and only a little Shakespeare. For my years, it was Dickens, Hardy, Tolkien (yippee!), Wilfred Owen and others I can't recall. I don't recall being taught the Saint's day's, or the background to them either, beyond a quick kid's story about George and the dragon.

The rules of Cricket: You have two sides, one out in the field and one in. Each man that's in the side that's in goes out, and when he's out he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out. When they are all out, the side that's out comes in and the side that's been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. Sometimes you get men still in and not out. When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in. There are two men called umpires who stay out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out. When both sides have been in and all the men have been out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game

I passed the test...eventually! I had to buy the Life in the UK book and basically memorise the whole thing. When I actually got to the test I found the questions so much easier than the ones in these practice tests...whether it was because of all my studying or if they were actually easier. I have since forgotten everything I memorised from the book :/

You failed all 3 tests you will be deported back to the colonies. I also failed and I am British, so I will be joining you.

I'm in Australia. There's a belief here that the English got it wrong in 1787 when they sent off the first fleet to Botany Bay in order to clear Blighty of all those excess convicts. We think what they should have said to the convicts was "We're off to Botany Bay but you can't come." Then they'd have got the best of the deal.- more land than all of Europe, and a climate far better than Spain, and more beaches than you'd have known what to do with.

@@afpwebworks my husband wanted to emigrate to Australia in the 80s. I wouldn't go because of the heat there. We nearly divorced over it, we separated for 9 months. No way could I endure the climate there, I'd rather freeze to death here in England.

It would be fun for you to do the Canadian Test to see if they'll let you back eh... In the meantime I'll allow you to stay, just tell them I've given you permission ….

Thank you for watching!!

[@ronuss]

lived in uk my entire life, would of failed all of them lol

[@SuperFIFTHGEAR]

I'm British and you're getting more right than I would have done. Thanks for the laugh :) (Good luck for the actual test). Some of the questions I just knew...I think it's picked up from quizzes, older family members, etc. Some is taught in schools and some just, dare I say general knowledge. Useless knowledge, nonetheless.

[@thatlonewolfguy2878]

That's an impossibly difficult test, like 85% of the general UK population would fail that without googling all the questions beforehand and memorising all the answers

[@UkeofCarl]

ThatLoneWolfGuy I totally disagree! A lot of it is common knowledge and things taught in schools. For someone who is not from this country it will be a challenge. People from the UK will fail, yes, but nowhere near 85%.

[@geoffpoole483]

I knew most of the answers but that's due to being a middle aged old fart who acquired this knowledge through my life. I wonder how us Brits would fare if Canada requires citizenship applicants to sit a test. Perhaps Allanna could present a video on this, and maybe perform worse than she did on the UK tests.

[@anthonyburton9091]

Speak for yourself

[@jackieunderwood9133]

We learnt a lot at school regarding the questions you had, but some were hard. I had a go at the last one you did and I got 3 wrong... so I can stay here. Which is good as I was born here! 😂
