Again, Adrian is correct. It's all explained in this link. No it's not me narrating it, I'd have been a bit more patronising.

I bet you Google the Pitcairn Islands after watching it.

  No Britain is an island which does not include N.Ireland. That's why "Team GB" is a fatuous name for our Olympic team

    I always took a logical approach, England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales are countries and combined they are the nation of Great Britain. 
    So I always say my nationality is British

    Not entirely the case; Scottish father, Irish mother, born in Wales. I think that makes me British? Ok I support Wales when it comes to rugby and England when it comes to Football. 


    I quite like the idea of being British. It will be interesting to see how the debate in Scotland pans out.

      No one born and bred in Britain would call themselves British if they were asked where they are from, they would reply "English" (or "Scots" or "Welsh").  We accept it from foreigners, but only because we are polite and tolerate their ignorance. We are not as tolerant and polite as the Dutch, so be warned.

        Indeed, being Dutch myself and having been brought up and schooled (if that's a word) in Germany most of my life, I can confirm that on the continent the whole island referred to correctly as Britain, is simply called England :-).

          Yes it should Richard, that was the title of the original e-mail before I found out the itinerary.
          Perhaps they don't know the difference, you could enlighten them :-)

            Looking at the itinerary shouldn't the subject be '928 in Scotland'?
