BBC Dialect

I've been watching on TV (Dr.Who) and listening on the radio (Phoenix KJZZ NPR) to a great deal of BBC lately.  I started a running list of vocabulary, that is common on the BBC, but rare (or non-existent) in typical US dialects.  Initial observations include:

Rogering / Buggering / Toss Off
Blimey   (as an exclamation)

Bullocks
Car Park (instead of a parking lot)
Champion!  (as an exclamation)
Clever

Daft

Fancy    (instead of being 'interested')

Garden     (for a yard)
Jolly!      (as an exclamation)

Lift        (instead of an elevator)
Lorrie     (instead of a truck)

Mad     (as in 'crazy' or 'insane')

Poppycock

Queue     (instead of a line)

Smashing!  (as an exclamation)
Swimmingly

Torch     (instead of a flash light)

 

There's many online translators, for British English to American English.  A funny one is here (link).
