Apparently, we don't wash, and we are morose and miserable even on holiday. On the other hand, we are polite, and kind to animals. Each week, Derek Jameson looks at the way foreign TV reports this country. Tonight, he looks at new revelations from Australia about the Sloane Rangers, and discovers an Iranian fascination for the Albert Memorial.
