Don't be shy, send me a message!A huge thank you to 'Novice_Artisan' on Instagram for suggesting the headline topic of this episode; a good half of this episode is me explaining the debt we owe to Edward the First, the English Civil War and the Victorians for giving us the parliamentary democracy we have today (plus a little mention of the Anglo-Saxons and the Normans).Other topics include Dickens, David Beckham, the Duke of Edinburgh, the Dorchester, and 101 Dalmatians (which I know very little about). This is the fourth episode of 'The Alphabet of Britishness'. Thank you everyone who messaged me on Instagram or Facebook to hep me with ideas. These episodes are released every two weeks, with bonus episodes in between.
