Answer 1

no

Answer 2

You mean like when I see Dubya, yeah, I do get embarrassed.

Answer 3

I have to admit I do a bit, especially when I've seen how some British holidaymakers behave when they've had more drink than they can handle. Mind you, you can find records dating back to Elizabeth 1 from foreign ambassadors criticising English drunkenness, so I guess by now we should be used to it.

Answer 4

I can imagine why some people would. I, personally, am not. Living in England, most of the shows are about people from my country!

Do you?
