i always find it funnys that if the news talk about someone who is english they say english, if they are scottish they just call them british
the worst thing for it is formula 1

I think in F1 they are very even handed, Jenson, Lewis, and Paul are nearly always British, (probably down to the English Irish and Scots commentators)
Now Tennis........ Andy Murray is British, right up to the point he gets knocked out. But they have lots of foreign commentators and he gets occasionally accused of being shhhh English lol

However the British press are terrible for it, especially the tabloids. Even the Scottish versions of national papers do it (Sun, Star, Mail, Express etc. do it, the Record and Herald less so)

oooh, what documentary? If it was for US TV they would say British, Americans seem to think that Scotland Wales and Ireland are just states of England. They don't get the concept we are a union of 4 countries
