Millsy ……but give those characters a posho accent saying the same drivel and the UKs perception of them is a bumbling toff rather than a pleb.
The UKs class system fascinates me, probably because i’ve experienced the full spectrum when I lived in England then compared that to the US since i’ve lived here. I went to prep school, then passed the 11plus to go to Grammar school. Then went to Uni where there were some of the poshest people known to mankind, then lived in London, Essex, worked in the City blah blah. The stealth class wars and putting people in boxes in the UK is crazy. The US has some pretty shocking traits but its very nice to not get segmented within 5mins of meeting people like you get in the UK.
Christ, I even watched that garbage “5 dates in a week” last night with the Mrs. Thats a microcosm of the UK class system in one series. One episode for the northerners, one for the arty types, one for the poshos in Surrey, one for black people, …..never the two shall mix……dear oh dear.
