How odd, I can't think of much beyond a few fine minds. Stephen Hawkin, Roger Penrose, Richard Dawkins, Martin Amis, that sort of thing. My overall impression of the UK these days though, is its total absence of moral courage, crushing mediocrity and seemingly boundless stupidity.

Maybe it's old age.

we beat them in the olympics too magic.

films, well I hate nearly every film i've ever seen that will be the hollywood influence.

Steven Hawking a decent shout. When the republicans were moaning about Obama's proposed changes to the health service and using uk as an example. Hawking came out and said he'd have been dead by now if it wasn't for the NHS. top lad, and another thing we can be proud of - the NHS.

Don't think the french hav better looking women than us. Scandinavians, Eastern Europeans, Brazilians and at a push Italians and Spanish. but not the french.

A true English rose, as opposed to a chav, would knock spots off the average frenchie

a true ebglish rose is harder and harder to find, while feminine and classy french are plentiful

Health Service
Parliament (copied the world over eg NZ etc)
The English language (Especially British English, but not forgetting International English, American English etc)

(I also think it's great that our other British languages are preserving themselves, but you said three so that obviously doesn't count...)
