Every person in Yorkshire is now frothing at the mouth that you said, "Yorkshire pudding," comes from Manchester. This used to be part of their traditional enemy, Lancashire. We are talking, they went to war! (not over Yorkshire Pudding obviously, Google War of the Roses to find out more). It is also more like a pancake than bread as it has egg in it.
I was staying at a Hilton hotel in Southampton, Hampshire, England, every Wednesday a different party of American tourists stayed that night, on route to other destinations, on a European tour, one morning, I was in a line at the buffet breakfast, all the breakfast dishes were clearly marked, fried eggs, toast, scrambled eggs, cornflakes etc. an American woman turned and asked me what fried bread was, I informed her, it was bread that had been fried, she seemed surprised.
We have detached, sim detached and terraced houses. Our gardens can be very small a courtyard really to very big gardens. So some may not need a lawn mower to needing a sit on mower. In our last house we needed a lawn mower but not in our new house. We getting older so don't need a big garden.
The UK is so diverse because we once had an empire that included many other places all over the world. We have a large Indian community who naturally brought their cuisine with them so hence all the curry houses and the British liking for Indian foods We also have migrants from all over Europe thanks to our membership of the EU.

Yorkshire pudding is a batter, when I was young you just had it with beef but now it is so popular we have it with everything. Manchester is in Lancashire
The English are the world’s greatest gardeners so not sure where he lived that we don’t have yards? The great cities have suburbs and gardening is rife, even in London.
Yorkshire pudding is a batter. It's found all over the country. Seen loads of videos like this and they all say its made from bread. It looks nothing like bread. Duh!!!!!
I don’t know anyone without a lawnmower as I don’t know anyone without a garden here in my part of the UK. Remember city centres are different from the suburbs.
I’m glad you enjoyed yourself in England, you can find lots of different things in various areas. Derbyshire has a national park, and Northumberland is full of castles. Devon and Cornwall and Somerset have amazing beaches and rocky shores. And of course there are the cities. Don’t ever restrict yourself to London or Manchester.
I agree, and at the same time I think there are lots of terraced houses. I thought it was a good description, about differentiating one house from another by paintwork. For me, it’s normal to see individual houses when I look at a terrace, but this description made me think about how they might not be easy to distinguish if you’re not used to them.
Perhaps you visited young people living in starter homes? The majority of houses have gardens and larger family homes generally have large gardens and mowing the lawn is a regular pastime.
Yorkshire puddings are made with milk, flour & eggs spooned into warm oil & baked for about 20 minutes, typically they expand leaving a small bowl like shape ✌🏻❤️
With respect, modern British food in all its variety and glory is a darn sight better than most food you get in the USA. This video seems to based on what you would get in a pub, hotel or restaurant (no, we do not eat fried breakfast every day!) rather than what people eat every day in their homes. And black pudding is pig's blood, not sheep, and yorkshire pudding is eaten al ve the UK.

We have smaller cars to be more Green. Our Government have encouraged greener fuel usage, lower CC capacity. After all we were the country that brought the Mini to the world in the 60’s
Nothing to do with being green. European roads have always been tighter and twistier than in the US, so European cars were always smaller than in America. This is not a new thing - just look at the Austin 7 of the 1920s or the FIAT Topolino of the 1940s/50s. Fuel has also been more heavilly taxed in Europe compared to the US, so smaller more economical engines were always favoured by European manufacturers. Smaller cars in Europe are a result of economics, practicallity and, only in more recent years, environmental considerations.
What ??? Where do you live in Yorkshire hairwood house never in my life have I seen a Yorkshire pud with fruit and sugar never, doesn't mean I'm not going to try though had one filed with curry

Amazing that you could spend two years in our country and not know that Yorkshire Puddings are native to.....Yorkshire ! The clues in the name for goodness sake. !!!!!!!!
I’m just outside London and we always have Yorkshire puds with our roast. Thank you Yorkshire for inventing them though so this whole Country can enjoy, and make toad in the hole too.
Yorkshire puddings are enjoyed all over the UK but are unique to us yorkshire folk of which I am one! Let’s be clear it is not a bread of any description, god knows where he’s been eating! It’s hard to describe really. U Americans eat pancakes right? Well it’s oven baked version. The only thing I don’t know is how u make your pancakes and what ingredients you use. Yorkshire’s do not contain any sugar! I say this because I know u guys live all things sweet. Us English make pancakes using the same ingredients as Yorkshire puddings. Hope this clears any confusion 👍
I've watched a couple of these and to be honest, coming from an Englishman, these videos seem to be entirely made up of people who don't seemed to have ventured out of cities. To any American watching this. Get out of London and the big cities, they are NOT representative of this country at all.
The only thing that the British share with the US of A, is the language….other than that…nothing, we have about as much in common with you, as we do with the Chinese..
Bad food? Hash browns, Chilli, hamburgers (yes!). Junk? Bad food? How? Meat is meat whether it's ground for a "1" burger or left alone for "2" roast beef. It isn't possible that "1" is bad and "2" (the same thing) is good.
Yorkshire Puddings (or 'Yorkies' or 'Puds') are ingredient-identical to a pancake; eg. flour, egg, salt, milk. Also, Yorkies are eaten all over the UK. Great vid though! :o)

Small terraced houses were originally built for mill workers in the industrial revolution. we are a relatively tiny country with a very big impact on history!
The flashing of the lights is done all over Europe, not only in the UK. It's a code drivers have. Depending on the flashes, it's "Go ahead", "Beware, radar ahead"...We do it in Canada too...maybe because we're more European, hehe
You've got to be careful with "flashing" though for three reasons: 1. If you flash your lights to allow someone to make a turn and it's *not* safe to go, you may cause the driver to have an accident - easily done. 2. If someone flashes to let you out, you've got to have the willpower to decline and just sit and wait: The *onus* is on you to judge whether it is safe to go or not, so don't be bullied into it. 3. "Flash for cash" scams: This is a scam where a driver flashes his lights several times and honks his horn to get you to pull out, and then deliberately drives into you; he can claim that you caused the accident by pulling out on him.
In Canada do people use hand gestures when driving to say things like "thanks for letting me drive in front of you on the road"? We do that all the time in England. I know they don't do it in the United States.
I'm glad you enjoyed our beautiful Lake District but this area is associated with the English poet, Wordsworth, and not the American poet, Longfellow, who only ever visited England briefly, and then he went to London.

The food in England is extremely good with a lot of fresh ingredients. It is far better than the United States.
totally agree with you - same in ROI good fresh meat veg eggs etc., not injected with hormones like the US

You can just buy organic food in the US, it's pretty good and not that expensive
