Product Description Get to know the UK by learning abouttheir favorite things. This book attempts to answer a simple question: What areGreat Britain'sfavorite things? Using surveys, polls, market research, and bestseller lists it looks at everything from computer games to crisps, diets to dog names, poems to playground games. The picture of Britain that emerges is sometimes familiar, often surprising, and always fascinating. As a nationthey currently drink more Buckfast Tonic Wine than Harvey's Bristol Cream,they enjoytheir first snack of the day at 10:37am, andtheir preferred biscuit to dunk intheir tea is McVitie's Chocolate Digestive. And whilethey are now more likely to readtheir newspaper online than on paper,their nation is still baffled by some aspects of the twentyfirst century. The most asked question last year on one internet search engine was "What is Twitter?"only slightly ahead of "Is Lady GaGa a man?" About the Author Mathew Clayton is a writer and editor. He has worked for the Guardian, Channel 4, and Random House. He runs a literary tent at the Glastonbury Festival called the Free University of Glastonbury.
