No American should ever say “bollocks”, “wanker” or “cheeky”.

Dan you are such a wanker, you telling me what i can and can't say is bollocks, just look at that whole freedom of speech thing we have in the constitution you watch yourself sir you are skating on thin ice you cheeky bastard.

Jolly good, Rusty. Sometimes you’re a bloody brilliant bloke.

I happen to love using "cheeky." But I can pull it off because I'm English on the inside. If you doubt me, just ask me to do my accent for you. "Ello, I'm Naughtily from Essex." It's spot on, according to my friends in Essex. :)

i do like bloody 'ell though.

and schedule is much more fun when you pronounce the 'ch'

My middle brother attempts to use "bloody" as an adverb in his speech. Epic, epic fail, every time.

My personal favorite is "Fer f***k's sake!" Sure, it's not as purely English Isles-talk as "bollocks" or "wanker." But people who speak in brogues can pull it so much more convincingly than those who don't.
