British Culture: Albion Never Dies
What is 'British-ness'? This podcast explores all aspects of British culture from the perspective of an Englishman previously based in China and Turkey. Perhaps you know Thomas Felix Creighton already from Instagram's @FlemingNeverDies centered on Ian Fleming's classic creation, James Bond, 007. Here, we can see a wider background of where our British hero sits.

Have you ever wondered what it's like to live overseas?
In this episode, I share a selection of clips from my audio diary, recorded on cassette tape in 2006. At that time, I had been living in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus for 5 years, the first experience of 'expat living' that I remember. I had lived in West Berlin in the 1980s, but my memories of the West and visiting the East are hazy at best! In the audio diary, I documented my day-to-day life, not intending then to share it with anyone at any point. I doubt I could have imagined using it for a podcast 18 years in the future! I add in my current recollections and reflections to give further information and context. I hope this episode offers some insight into the oddity of growing up in another culture.
