Anglophiles are fascinated by wealth, title, and privilege. They eagerly consume British television, film, and books; and also dream of owning an English country estate and being part of the aristocracy.
I really had no idea there was a definition for someone like me. I've seen this word lately and looked into it. I'm just now coming to terms with the truth about myself. Lately I am obsessed with this BBC series, The House Of Eliott.

Wow Nicole, I'm glad someone has seen T.H.O.E. besides me. You told me about Forsyte Saga before and I watched it and really enjoyed that one as well!! :) |

The House of Elliot is great. I love Foyle's War (a series), To Serve Them all My Days (mini-series), House of Cards (3 discs). We just watched The Hunting Party which was good, too. We lived in York, England for a year, and I am obsessed with anything English. I did a ton of research through all my Scandinavian grandparents and finally found some true English blood running through my veins. I am SO proud! |
