The Beatles have been voted Britain's most iconic image.
The Fab Four - Paul McCartney, John Lennon, George Harrison and Ringo Starr - beat the Queen, Harry Potter and the BBC in the online poll.
Nick Morley, from internet search engine Seekport - who commissioned the survey, said: 'With this survey we've taken a snapshot of what it means to be British today.''Through the internet, films and TV people all over the world are exposed to the same cultural influences but deep down there are still big national differences.' The survey put the local pub in second place, followed by the British countryside, and Shakespeare. Former Spice Girl and Victoria 'Posh' Beckham and her footballer husband David got the thumbs down from the public after being chosen as Britain's most embarrassing celebs. They proved even less popular than a rainy day.
