The tasty bacon butty is what we love most about Britain, a survey revealed today.
A humble bacon sandwich topped the poll of the 50 things we most adore about the nation, with a traditional roast dinner taking second place.
Nothing washes down a meal better than a lovely cup of tea - which came in at number three in the survey of 60,000 Brits.
For an example of style, class and British engineering, the Aston Martin roared into 17th.
It is clear that Brits love bagging a bargain, which comes in at 30th on the list.39th on the list of all time favourites was
James Bond triumphed over Harry Potter as the nation’s best-loved fictional character.
And proving the quirkiness us Brits are known for is alive and well, that most alternative of British ‘sports’ - cheese rolling - made the last spot.
