I've just finished watching an episode of Desperate Housewives, and it the one where Ian who is English has his English parents come and visit him and Susan.
They have a barbeque and Ian's father says -
"So one puts one meat on top of the burning coal? How wonderfully primal"
.... erm ... we may not have hot weather all year round but I'm sure most of us in the UK know what a barbeque is.
Also Ian won a poker games with a hand of "sevens and knaves" to which Carlos replies "we call them JACKS!"
- I've never known Jacks as Knaves.
Don't even get me started on Emily from Friends.
(I know it's just fiction but still )
