I love tea

[Minty]

What they have as teapots are the old fashioned pitcher pots which proved unpopular in the 19th century as anything but ornamentation. A tea pot needs to be short & fat to allow you to stir the pot or squeeze the bags (if you are not using loose leaf).

A tall tea pot not only makes this more difficult, but produces watery weak tea, the sort of slop seaside cafes have the cheek to charge a £1 for. When coffee became more popular, the abandoned pitcher pots found their role, providing room for the coffee grit to settle at the bottom (rather than in your cup) in those pre-instant days.

Typical of EA to get it wrong again. Who does their research for them, the Sun?
