Are you too embarassed to celebrate being English?

The One Show Team | 14:30 UK time, Thursday, 23 April 2009

It's St George's Day today, April 23, and it is not a public holiday in England.
It's also a day that the English don't seem to celebrate too much, at least compared to the way the Welsh, Scots and Irish celebrate their patron saint days.

For The One Show Arthur Smith tried to find out why the English "are embarassed to celebrate their Englishness".

So, are the English too embarassed to celebrate being English? Why don't the English celebrate St George's Day with enthusiasm? Or maybe you are celebrating St George's Day?
