I am sure the glamour is too, as well as the general flavour and colourful production. But I won't apologise for the defence of our labour- I recognise some of their good work but prefer our own catalogue of dialogue. No offense to our neighbours across the pond.
None taken. We get a lot of US shows over here and a great many US channels such as Discovery channels, National Geographic channels, PBS America, Fox, Paramount, CNN, CNBC, etc. In addition, some 70% of the films (movies) in our Cinemas are from the USA.
Quite apart from the 4 country versions of the BBC (England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland), each region in the UK has it's own local news (BBC and the commercial channels) which is usually shown before or after the national/international news.
I use grey/gray interchangeably. My spell checker tells me that gray is incorrect w.r.t. the colour, but Gray is fine, since with the uppercase G it is a measure of radiation dose.
Here we get the "like" and also "yeah?" overused in conversation.
The "Yeah" is normally used by people to try and make sure that you're still listening and is very irritating.
