Regionally, Bristol was the most patriotic city in the UK, where 94 per cent of people admit their emotion for their country, followed by Manchester (93 per cent) and then Sheffield.

The survey was commissioned by online polling firm Perspectus Global and ran from March 31 to April 1.

Head of research at Perspectus Global, David Arnold, said: 'We were delighted, but not surprised to see the heroes of the NHS being recognised for the incredible work they do and are doing at the moment.

'It was also interesting to see how many of our favourite foods came high on the list, perhaps showing how our favourite meals are getting us through the current lockdown.

'Overall, our poll shows as many as 87 per cent of Brits are proud to be British, which is testament to the resilience of the nation.'
