What universities are good for English in the UK then? I'm thinking UCL, don't really fancy Oxbridge. I want to avoid as much literary theory as I possibly can. Thanks

I think there's going to be a lot of theory regardless of where you go. I would advise you to brush up on your grammar, though. Comma splice here: "I'm thinking UCL, don't really fancy Oxbridge".
If you can get into an Oxbridge uni, it would be pretty cool.

Look champ, Oxbridge is going to be better than any other university in the UK. You will probably end up living most of your life in London anyway, so why force yourself to do that for anymore years than you must? You must be some kind of idiot.

This is true, I'm also an American who did time in Cambridge, and I gotta say it was the best years of my life.

Hey, we aren't talking about Cambridge State Penitentiary. Mind your word selection!

His grammar's right there. If you want to rag on anything, go for the contraction that made you fuck it up and think he spliced. Or rag on prescriptivist idiots like Strunk and White.
