Made In Britain

Dom's quest

If you were to throw out everything in your home that wasn’t made in Britain, what would be left? Here at Blighty we decided to try the theory out… on Dom Joly. Out with his German fridge, the French pots and pans, the made in China knives and the Japanese TV. Even his M&S undies are made in Sri Lanka, so our little experiment leaves Dom with virtually nothing...
