From gov.uk: You were born outside the UK British citizenship is normally automatically passed down one generation to children born outside the UK. For example, you might automatically become a citizen if you’re born outside the UK to a British parent. But your children will not automatically be citizens if they’re born outside the UK. **** Her mother is Scottish, so all she had to do was apply.
Not exactly. If you were born before 1983, you could get British citizenship by descent from your father, but not from your mother. If your mother were British, it was necessary to apply for British citizen by registration. I am pretty sure Juliane Moore was born before 1983.
The only thing that irks me about her obtaining British citizenship is that she has never lived here and can vote in elections, and even stand as an MP.
@@aishariel9924 The US citizenship test is a piece of cake, you know going in they will ask ten questions from a set list of 100. The Life in the UK test (which I have taken) is more of a pub quiz, asking anything from names of famous athletes and scientists going back decades to something about how the amount of money involved in a court case changes which court tries the case in Scotland (a question I got and got wrong), as well as expected questions on history and civics. Fortunately, I cram well.
I might be out of date but the 1981 Act allowed for anyone to claim British citizenship as of right on a hereditary basis for one generation, through either parent but only if born after that. For older people, the former standard applied- hereditary one generation but through father only. If you met the age-appropriate standard, it was more a matter of them recognizing you already were a British citizen and recording you as such, rather than making you a new one. You had to provide all sorts of documentation- birth certificate, British-born parent's birth record, parents' marriage certificate, and perhaps others. But no test. But she's too old for mother to count. Born 1960. She'd have had to have a British born father. Unless that has been changed since- but the goal of British nationality law had long been to reduce the scope for people claiming freebies, not expand it.
You're actually misunderstanding the rules a little bit. You are correct that since she was born in 1960, she was not automatically a British citizen as it was her mother who was British and not her father. However...her mother being British still made her ELIGIBLE to apply for citizenship. And the process really is as simple as she describes. As the daughter of a British mother, she merely had to fill out an application with documentation of her ancestry, get it approved, and attend/pay for a citizenship ceremony. If her father had been British, she wouldn't have even had to do any of that! In that situation, since you're already a citizen, you can just go ahead and apply for a UK passport! But, in either situation, no test is required.
This is an older clip indeed, cause Graham says "Oscar nominee", but she's an Oscar winner for many years now. Funny part is, Matthew presented her the Oscar.
Thanks, guys , my mistake for thinking it was a recent clip - I stand corrected 😊 Consulting good ol' Google once again, it says that she claimed British citizenship in 2011, so I'm guessing the clip is from round about there ...Update : this episode of Graham Norton was broadcast on 31st January 2014, making her round about 53 here --- she's so fine 😊

You can get sworn in as a UK citizen while you aren't even in the country? That seems a bit weird, I very much doubt you could get sworn in as a US citizen from somewhere in the UK.
She did, she says she always wanted to be because her mother is Scottish making her half British but without the citizenship because she wasn't born here.
I think it's hilarious that Graham actually thought that a celebrity with money would have to take the same path to citizenship that we would have to take. They just give someone a sum of money and raise their hand and it's done.

Very British to let famous people become citizens without having to do the test, and presumably fill out all the other intrusive forms. Did she have to live in the UK for 5 years as well? I bet not.
