I took this test, results came back 3 days ago.. Turns out I'm not as British as I thought. (which probably explains why I'm not short and podgy)..
I also got my Maternal Grandmother tested... She's 93. I've never seen anybody (in looking at results here and there) as anything as my grandmother is Brtish... 85% ! - That's the highest I've seen anyone be anything.
The average Briton is only 37 per cent British because their genes came from Ireland, Scandinavia, Spain and Greece. A specific haplogroup which is considered British is R1b but this Y-DNA haplogroup is prevalent throughout Western Europe, especially in Spain and Ireland. R1b-S21 is considered Germanic, introduced to Britain by the Anglo-Saxons, and R1b-L21 ("Celtic") dominates Ireland.
