Found on reddit; Someone used a free trial of Google consumer surveys to ask 1000 Americans to name a British city other than London.
Top results were Liverpool and Manchester. A few people knew Westminster was a city. Curiously Wales was in there, and bizarrely Paris. Two people even put Amsterdam!
Some of the entries in the Raw Data are much better. Aside from a few "I don't know"/"I don't care" answers ("111", "asdfasdfasdf" and so on), we have those quant cities of:
Dog
Do Scottish or Welsh ones count?
Faggotsville (thanks for spotting that
