On the outside Britannia Village looks like a quaint British village. The river, the boat, the pub. However beneath the surface, and above the surface actually, there’s something else lurking.
Britannia Village is also gearing up for this week’s UK General Election, and there’s a distinct Vote Labour feeling to their political persuasion.
Whilst wandering around I discussed the forthcoming election with a protest Gnome. Holding a Vote Labour placard he told me to beware Tory supporters who may be lurking in the strangest of guises.
Outside a polling station, one of the leaders of Britannia Village, Lardeo Lowtide, looked calm and relaxed. When I asked him about Tory campaigners in strange guises he merely told me that he had no idea what I was talking about and that Britannia Village was a fun location.
However on my visit I did stumble across a Dalek. Was the Dalek a Tory supporter? I didn’t hang around to find out, but as I made good my escape I did see a worrying sight.
One of the other leaders of Britannia Village, Kat Kassner soon appeared and as I stood in a safe hiding place, I noticed a Dalek approaching her outside The Guy Fawkes Inn. However I’m pleased to say that Kat wasn’t exterminated.
In many ways it may seem odd that a region with The Guy Fawkes Inn at its heart is taking such an active role in democracy. However Britannia Village is a friendly place, where Timelords as well as Daleks roam the streets. There are also no shortage of Police Boxes, which double as a Tardis around.
One word of warning though, this is an Adult Region and there are adult themes in some places.
The Guy Fawkes Inn
The Guy Fawkes Inn is a British-inspired pub and nightclub, built by British Residents for an authentic experience. Set in the Britannia sim, the Guy Fawkes Inn is inspired by the London historical icon Guy Fawkes. Enjoy a beer at the bar, a dance in the club, or a beer in the sun out by the pond!
