I really don't understand how or why they left Shitterton off the list: It became somewhat famous (or maybe infamous) because the sign denoting entry to it kept getting stolen, a problem the local council eventually solved by having the sign replaced by a huge chunk of rock with the name chiseled into it, weighing several tons on its own and mounted in a concrete foundation. It hasn't been stolen since - not much of a surprise since you would need a combination of excavator, crane and flatbed truck to even have a sporting chance of doing so. As a side-note, another one they really should have included is the village of "Wilsford cum lake" - and yes, that really is how it is spelled on the sign.

Pratt's Bottom is a village in Greater London, England, within the London Borough of Bromley and, prior to 1965, within the historic county of Kent. It is south of its parent parish of Orpington, lies about 100 metres above sea level. The name Kent is believed to be of Celtic origin. Following the withdrawal of the Romans, large numbers of Germanic speakers from mainland Europe settled in Kent, bringing their language, which came to be Old English. Wikipedia.
