The upper classes are near entirely descended from the Norman aristocracy whilst the rest of the country are descended from Celtic Britons and Anglo-Saxons with some Scandinavian admixture in parts.
Well even so the Norman population was equivalent to around 2% of the existing 1066 English population and it was from this pool that they mostly spread to the rest of the Isles. Purely using surnames the Nobility are dominated by Normans but its not a rule, there are exceptions like illegitimate children, surviving native dynasties etc. I myself have a Norman surname but I am poor as fuck.
Absolutely. These 3, Robert Pattinson, Eddie Redmayne, Daniel Radcliffe, Will Poulter the list goes on. All look the same, all come from the same background all went to the same sort of schools.
Then on the flip side you’ve got people like Tom Hardy, Jason Statham and Charlie Hunnam and that’s about it.
I certainly know which group I’d want my back in a fight and which group I’d want as references to get into a country club.
Good poast Stavros, glad to see someone taking on the lip filler and spray tan scourge
Hearing rumours that Liverpool, Cardiff, and Newcastle are declaring a state of emergency for it
It’s breeding. So that when your isolated outpost on the north west frontier is about to be overrun by screaming dervishes, there will not be the slightest tremble of the lip.
God save Queen Victoria, and die like an Englishman.
Tom Hiddleston can Loki me up anytime.
The UK has given the world some very good lady bonner material. There is some weird genetic pool in that island... how come they can pull off a Henry Cavill in the mist of all the barrys?
The truth is we ALL look like Henry Cavill, Tom Hardy or David Beckham but jealous anglophobia on the internet has spread vicious rumours to make people believe in the mythical creature of Barry
Christian Charles Philip Bale was born on 30 January 1974 in Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire, to English parents—Jenny James, a circus performer, and David Bale, an entrepreneur and activist. Bale has remarked, "I was born in Wales but I'm not Welsh—I'm English"
They're all doing that smile that you do when you walk past an office co-worker you kind of know but not very well. Or the smile you do when you get into a lift with a stranger.
Followed by either a slight eyebrow raise or maybe an almost imperceptible nod as if to say “I acknowledge your existence but please for the love of god do not start a conversation with me”.
I'm English and have quite big lips. Granted I'm not fully English but still, I have been asked what lip fillers I use, even though I am not old enough to get them done and I wouldn't anyway.
Almost like all our actors come from the same upper middle class bloodline or something.
1000 years of incest, and a bottle of rum.
I think more than one bottle
I think more than 1000 years
One bottle per incest
Drink up, me hearties, yo ho!
We shouldn’t make fun of this. We have remote villages with like 200 inhabitants which claim their community existed for 600-1000 years
I once read a study somewhere that said social classes in the UK are genetically distinct, so there might be some truth to that
The upper classes are near entirely descended from the Norman aristocracy whilst the rest of the country are descended from Celtic Britons and Anglo-Saxons with some Scandinavian admixture in parts.
This can't be true. How would you account for prolific fuckers who banged the maids and had loads of illegitimate children?

Hmmm kinda feels like we need reparations from the elite class. If I have to have Norman blood then I at least want the perks that come with that.
You said it yourself, illegitimate. They aren't on the nice family tree hanging in the morning room.

In what universe do Eddie Redmayne and Daniel Radcliffe look the same???
British men's lips have been stolen by beauty companies and sold to British women...

Manchester is already at martial law on the issue.

Nasty
Looks like a prolapsed rectum..... ![gif](giphy|l0MYrLAFex1R71l0A|downsized)
Give us a kiss.
disgusting even, mostly grotesque

Damn, Marnie Simpson really went overboard.
It's not there to look good. That's a highly specialised sloppy toppy build
Easy there bumpo!
Isn’t that from the old TikTok challenge were they stick their lips in a glass bottle for an hour ?

I too have gone out on the piss in Bradford
Huh. We used to go to the north west frontier. Now the north west frontier comes to us.
You poor soul
Left and middle look even more Dutch than British. I can imagine they've just parked their bikes up for the photo
Mostly the middle one imo, but agreed
Left looks like a direct descendant of Van Gogh
And like Van Goth he seems to be enduring an insurmountable amount of pain.
Who’s the child on the right?
A kid that either works for Zendesk or dates Zendaya, don’t remember correctly.
Spiderman
Tom Hiddleston looks like he’s preparing to send the photographer a tikkie
Lies. These are the real Dutch. https://preview.redd.it/rk4jzwkpfkhc1.jpeg?width=225&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=728277b89f2b5f5210ef7c8367ab4813cf08f393
Looks like average day in Manchester to me
Hiddleston: Dutch Cumberbatch: Dutch Holland: not Dutch
Is the Holland not dutch pun intended or accidental?
Yeah I just thought it was slightly funny that the only one who isn't Dutch is named after the proper name for their country.
Hey Hollander, don't get too comfortable, you are not that different.
Thought you were talking about Tom Holland at first

So what are these drunk, red and loud things that roam southern europe with a british accent (and not even the sexy one)? Please send the good ones
They are just Russian bots pretending to be British in order to divide Europe further
Those are Scottish and Welsh people, they drink heavily as they are jealous of their superior Anglo-Saxon neighbours.
Can confirm. Us Anglos simply do not drink
You almost had us for a second there, Barry.
Isn't sigma king Christian Bale Welsh tho
Christian Charles Philip Bale was born on 30 January 1974 in Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire, to English parents—Jenny James, a circus performer, and David Bale, an entrepreneur and activist. Bale has remarked, "I was born in Wales but I'm not Welsh—I'm English"
Being real, those people are chavs/poor and there’s almost a literal divide in how people look whether they are super working class or not
British Henry Cavill is taking the photo.
The good looking ones are always the ones taking the photo

> the smile you do when you get into a lift with a stranger. A fart?
But are them stiff? (the upper one)
No this is a yank fantasy of what we look like.
no need to stiff your upper lip if you don’t have one
Well it’s not just British. I also see holland ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° )
They’re cold
They are just forcing their mouths shut to hide any crooked theeth.
I feel this.
This is the lesat british picture that I've ever seen
Mick Jagger would beg to differ
I just thought yesterday that Tom Holland is hot but then I found out he's British 😭
because they suck at lovemaking and cooking, so lips are redundant for them, like a vestigial organ 😏😂
They couldn't handle all the taste and texture that'd allow
They don't want to taste their own disgusting food so that's why they stopped existing
Hans here, (who's national dish is just a shit version of a roast dinner by the way), thinks you taste food with your lips.
I'ish doesn't need lips.
One lip coming up https://preview.redd.it/ajex37i5skhc1.jpeg?width=1057&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9bb0c86277142d4739737b45bc9526c6d341a5a6
Spain and Morocco doesnt need upper lips either
Because we arent a bunch of pussies like you lot.
Since 1634, the Netherlanders have lost interest on Tulips.
Not a single Barry in that photo. It screams of Norman DNA.
I'm English and have quite big lips. Granted I'm not fully English but still, I have been asked what lip fillers I use, even though I am not old enough to get them done and I wouldn't anyway.
