I've just got back from seeing 'King Kong'. There was a brilliant moment when just after a very emotional scene (if you've seen it, it's that bit where Kong makes the gesture you've been waiting approximately one and a half hours for) the biplanes suddenly turn up, ruining everything, and the whole cinema went 'Tch', which I thought was the most British response imaginable, and left me welling with pride at my nation's marvellous capacity for understatement.
Reminds me of that Victoria Wood speil where she's complaining about how incredibly dull her town is, but she can't mention it by name because there'd be an outcry.
