Me and Catherine Brooks (aka The Tudor Tracker) wish you a Happy Christmas 2020, wonder what the Queen would say in her speech if she could say what she really thought, how you do social distancing in a palace and ponder on whether watching day time TV would be an education the Queen could do without?

𝑅𝑒𝑐𝑜𝑟𝑑𝑒𝑑 as a Facebook 𝐿𝐼𝑉𝐸 with Catherine (The Tudor Tracker)

On the 3rd December 2020 on the Facebook page, I asked what British words and phrases did other people find odd or funny.

The response was “Brilliant!” (the word that first prompted the question 😀) so I decided to go through them live and get my good friend Catherine to join me.

It was fun and only a tad offensive with some of our amusing words turning out to be ones "one would not use in polite conversation" 😂and all in the name of exploring the English language and the odd and hilarious ways we Brits use it
