You're not really selling Britain as a concept here. Look, every year, the start of the Wimbledon tennis tournament is marked by an almighty queue for tickets.
This is the true spirit of Wimbledon. They queue in the sun. People queue in the rain. The woman. It’s a chance for people to indulge in the most British thing that any British person could ever do. But people have been queueing since Friday. In 2017, there were thought to be 7,000 people in the queue.
As Wimbledon organisers say: “For many, the Queue at The Championships is as much a part of the Wimbledon experience as the tennis itself.”.
Tickets are sold on a best available, one per person queuing basis. “People really want to go and have a queue experience. When people arrive in the queue, they will be given a queue card that states the date and their position in line. Many people will camp overnight ahead of the queue opening in order to secure a spot at the Championships. The famous Wimbledon queue is the only opportunity many tennis fans get to buy a ticket.

But fear not, Barker WILL be at this summer's Wimbledon... she'll even be on our screens on day one as she leads the afternoon and evening coverage. And Barker left fans worried after she failed to kick-off the Beeb's coverage of the 2022 Wimbledon Championships - with ex-cricketer Isa Guha taking the lead. Barker was reduced to tears at last week's Queen's tournament as she waved goodbye to the Wimbledon warm-up tournament.
Tennis fans have been camping out over the weekend in anticipation for Wimbledon operating under full capacity this year.
It is a great part of the experience. The worst thing about the queue is finding somewhere to shower, and the best part is everything else.’ The weather for the two-week period will be predominantly dry, but there is the potential for some showers and wind in between the sunny weather. Marco Petagna, a spokesperson for the Met Office, said: ‘The first half of the week, the impression is a lot of bright dry weather with a small chance of showers coming in. Keen tennis fans pitched their tents in a park opposite the courts over the weekend, to be at the front of the line and the first to get tickets for the opening day. The championships were cancelled completely in 2020 and the number of spectators was reduced to 50% in 2021.
