A light-hearted, whistlestop tour of today's Britain, done entirely through statistics and survey results
How long does the average British male spend in the shower?
What is the worst-paid job?
Where are the keenest DIYers in the UK to be found?
Which profession least favours the wearing of ties?
Why are 63% of us too embarrassed to complain about bad food in a restaurant?
Covering everything from food to travel, via gardening and fashion, 8 out of 10 Brits tells you everything you need to know, and much that you don't, about who we are, where we're going, and why - on statistical grounds - we should all consider living in Southend-on-Sea.
