The UK is a European country. The European union is a political gathering (and not all countries in Europe are members), Europe is the continent. We left the union, not the continent lol. As for the record heat, I had to google it for the exact number - 40.3 °C (104.5 °F)

Old football used to be contested between two towns with the town gates being the goals, it could last for days and sometimes weeks and was usually a massive brawl as there was no rules back then

[@24magiccarrot]

Old football had a variety of rules as the term originally applied to several games played on foot as opposed to horseback, so could be in reference to a game that the hands are used or kicking, it was essentially just a generic term for ball sport. Some games would have rules that would vary from town to town or playground to playground and other games would just be outright brawls.

The NHS is not underfunded, it is badly managed and incredibly wasteful. It is far from the best health service. The UK has some of the worst health outcomes in Western Europe.

[@Nutrient-Gold]

@@archiebald4717 not quite right. It is well underfunded. I agree that funds are mismanaged with these middle managers etc also. It’s not one of the worst - infact it’s average compared to other European counties. Get your head out of your tory backside and see the reality.

[@archiebald4717]

@@Nutrient-Gold It has more funding than ever before. Proof that there is an excess is the millions spent on diversity officers and sustainability officers, whose salary is double that of the average nurse's income.

Originally, Welsh meant "foreigner" in English (well, Old English). Edit: Correction on the curry thing; India does have native curries. Lots of them, in fact. It's specifically tikka masala that's a UK creation. Tikka itself comes from India, but the non-dry version was invented by an Indian chef working in the UK. There are some other dishes that are British-Indian rather than Indian - an example of this would be vindaloo. Vindaloo **is** a Goan dish, but the British vindaloo is massively spicier, and makes use of some ingredients that wouldn't be considered for the dish in Goa.

Tea, we love it. Tea was made fashionable in England by king Charles the second's wife, Catherine of Braganza, she was Portuguese.

Mistake at 4:32 You have a city with a bigger population than England??? With more than 56 million? You do not even have a state with a bigger pop than this.

You should do a video on the Atherstone ball game in England. It's crazy

Hi guys, if you are in the UK and are injured or ill for any reason, the NHS will look after you at no cost, of course it´s sensible to take out travel insurance, that go´s for all of us, and for life threatening illness´s, everyone one gets priority, sure there are problems within the NHS, why? because they have over decades allowed Managers and Accountants a leading role in decision making, Cheers Guys.

The Monarch doesn't own all swans. Just on some parts of the River Thames.

My favourite pub is the Crooked House in Dudley. The pub looks like it's been on the p**s due to been on the boarder between 2 coal seams. One was dug out. the other wasn't. You really should go there when you come over.

[@spiritofnature91]

it's so unfortunate that it has now been burnt down by idiots!

[@Oddballkane]

The reason for the long name in Wales is that most people want to go to the place with the biggest bottle or rubber band ball, etc, so they think that naming it such a long name would be a good way to increase tourists.

Back in the day, archery practice was mandatory every Sunday, so we were always ready to go to war, and those kings wanted to ban football because players would skip archery to play, given that Sunday was their only day off in the working week..

[@VisionalHD]

Every pub in the uk has coke and weed in it lol I can also see France from our beach in the south east :)

[@neezduts69420]

UK is European 😝 EU is not Europe

[@Billy.Nomates]

You need to visit the crooked house pub in the west Midlands...you feel pissed just walking in the place..

[@happyhedgehog6450]

In Wales everyone is constantly forced to produce loads of Welsh copies of everything that no-one reads.

[@annienewton3999]

English but love Haggis !! I did go out with a Scotsman for 4 years ❤

[@supernovaleftover1812]

I'm also English but think the Scotsman would probably taste better than the Haggis.

[@deanmarkramsey9737]

The uk does have a constitution but we call it the MagnaCarta which the Americans used to write their constitution

[@shaneord7527]

[@SalfordSoldier]

For 36, Shetland (group of remote islands in most northern part of Scotland) also get gifted a separate Christmas tree from Norway specifically for the little islands' important assistance in the war, most notably the Shetland Bus

Go to the underground lost property office and say you left an umbrella on the tube, say 'it was long and black with a wooden handle...' and you will get a choice !

The EU wasn't actually formed until 1993 and had a lot less powers over Member States than it does now. The treaty of Lisbon in 2007 is the only reason they are allowed to enforce as much on Member States as they can and is the reason so many countries ( Britain included) want out.

[@paulguise698]

Hiya Spencer and Daniel, My favorite pub is called The Sun Inn, in Hensingham, Whitehaven I think you'll be the first Americans to go in there, if you's do, if you come to UK you's will find everyone is nationalistic to their own country, nobody will call themselves British, if you come from England your English, Scotland,Scottish, Wales, Welsh and Ireland would be Irish, I only have 1 mug of Tea per day, sometimes 2, I like mine quite strong with 1 and half sugars and just a little milk in last, I Use Yorkshire Tea Bags, this is Choppy in Whitehaven, Cumberland, England

[@johngault22]

Probably the most random fact to take issue with but there is a flag associated with Northern Ireland (Ulster[not making any inference here just giving the other name]) it is like the English flag just with a red hand in the middle and is used mostly on TV when a sports team representing Northern Ireland is taking part in some kind of competition. Also I am a Scottish Aberdeen FC supporter, but support the other footballing rival of Aberdeen FC rivals(if yer ken yer ken) as well: I always assumed that the Saltire's design was to do with the martyrdom of Saint Andrew with the shape if the cross he was crucified on but could be wrong there though never heard the video's explanation before.

[@gyuunyuuishere]

we left a trade union not a bloody continent. the UK is still in Europe

[@TheJthom9]

Wales is included in the Union flag. The Principality of Wales was part of the Kingdom of England, so is represented in the St. George's Cross
