Great Brit icons are Fab Four, tea & chippies WE LOVE BREW YEAH YEAH YEAH!
THE Beatles, a cup of tea and fish and chips are among the biggest British icons.
The Fab Four, the traditional brew and the takeaway favourite are all in the Top 10.
But the Britishness poll was topped by a Sunday roast.
Researchers also found that Brits wear summer clothes at the first glimpse of sun, apologise too often, discuss the weather and make tea in response to a crisis.
The 2016 Britishness Audit, commissioned by Tetley, involved an analysis of the British Social Attitudes survey by NatCen Social Research and a poll of 2,000 people by OnePoll.
When asked what the country’s national emblem should be, most Brits said a cup of tea (32%), followed by Big Ben (31%), with the Queen’s face coming third.
The NatCen report found Brits (82%) were proud of their nationality and 62% of people who live in Britain said they would rather be citizens here than anywhere else.
Ian Simpson, from NatCen, said: “The notion that the people who inhabit this particular set of islands have strong emotional attachments to our nation is an enduring one.
“The report reveals feelings of national pride still run high, with eight in 10 people saying they feel proud to be British.”
