Mainly only English teachers would say something like that. :lol:

And even the English teachers wouldn't say those things if they were drunk or you scared them awake in the middle of the night. :D

That's right! :lol:

And even the Queen wouldn't say "It was I who did it" since she would most likely use the "royal we". :lol:

A Canadian disk jockey who could do an amazingly good imitation of Jean Cretien's accent (Cretien was then the prime minister of Canada) was able to get through to Queen Elizabeth one time and put the conversation on the air. When the conversation was more informal and personal, even she didn't seem to have that super-aristocratic form of RP and just sounded more or less like a regular old lady. (Of course, when she figured out what was going on, she found a diplomatic way to get him off the phone.)
