GUEST,DB Icons of Englishness? (210* d) RE: Icons of Englishness? 12 Mar 06


I've always been fascinated by Hollywood's portrayal of English people - the classic example being Dick Van Dyke as a Cockney chimney sweep in 'Mary Poppins'.

Have any English Mudcatters ever heard an English person use the expression 'donch'ya know?' Americans (at least those connected with films and TV) seem to believe that English people use this expression all the time - and they don't, donch'ya know?!!
