ARGH. (I'm just the sort of person to be swung by that sort of thing, though I don't have a vote to swing). I was once at a pub quiz (in Scotland, though the quizsetter was English) where that gaffe was made and the wrath was mighty. But really, where have all the fact-checkers gone? In a programme about Richard III you shouldn't be talking about Britain in any sense but the purely geographical.
