What does it mean to be British? By Mollie Skiffington

WHAT IS MY IDEA? My idea is based around the view of what modern day society believe British means. The Recent Great British bake off inspired my idea. My idea is to go out and interview the public on what they believe it is to be British. e. g. Roast Dinners, politeness and cakes Varied sample: Student (15 -21 yrs) Adult (25 -45 yrs) OAP (60 -80 yrs) Game: To ask people on what they believe the top ten things are that we appreciate the most as a nation.

LET’S TRY IT Name the top five things we appreciate the most as a nation… (as according to a daily mail poll taken earlier this year) A) BBC Q) Fifth Q) Fourth A) Bacon Sandwiches Q) Third A) Scones Q) Second A) Cup of tea Q) First A) Roast Dinner BBC Bulldogs Cup of tea Bacon Sandwiches Roast Dinner Mini Coopers British History

RE-CAP The Great British Bake-off inspired the idea It will be entertaining due to the relatable aspects of the video as well as the viewers being able to take part. It will be informative as the younger viewers will become aware of what we, as a nation are ‘known for’ e. g. tea, roast dinners etc. as well as humouring the older viewers My aim for this video is to not make a political statement it’s to celebrate the light hearted elements of our personalities as we grew up here and it’s what we know as home.
