The English - stereotypes or reality?



It is very interesting to check how English people picture themselves, sometimes sterotypes are based in reality! Take a look at this funny advertisement. Below you will find the script of what you hear. Enjoy!


In England we have lousy weather but the girls are always half naked.
We live on an island, but you get there by train.
We have a Queen, but her husband is only a prince.
We built the EC, but in the end we kept the pound.
We have dominated the world, but also we liked to be dominated.
We invented football, but our national team is run by an Italian.
We have the most ridiculous police uniforms, but somehow it seems to work.
We love a well-tailored suit, but we also love a well-tailored dress.
We don’t know how to cook, but we make good biscuits. 

Movies to borrow

In this link you will find all the movies available for you to borrow from the Casa de las Lenguas. If you have any question on the borrowing procedure, just ask! :-)

Remember what Coppola said - "I think cinema, movies, and magic have always been closely associated. The very earliest people who made films were magicians". Have fun watching! :-D
