Cover of Mathew Clayton: Nation's Favourite (ePUB)

In the last 100 years mankind has split the atom, walked on the moon and broken the sound barrier but… we haven’t got any better at making biscuits. The nation’s favourite biscuit, Mc Vitie’s Chocolate Digestive, was first baked in 1892. This is just one of the fascinating facts you will find in The Nation’s Favourite. What is the UK’s favourite karaoke song, or wedding first dance song? What is our favourite cereal, painkiller, pet or garden tool? The Nation’s Favourite brings together 220 lists which provide the answers to these questions and many more. The result is amusing, surprising and reveals a fascinating picture of the tastes and habits of the UK population.
