The Mandela Effect impacts British perceptions, leading many to misremember iconic scenes. YouGov surveyed 2,240 British adults about eight common Mandela Effects, revealing that 49 percent recall Colin Firth’s Mr Darcy emerging from a lake wet-shirted, though he only walks around after swimming. Additionally, 59 percent believe Mr Monopoly wears a monocle, while 50 percent think Shaggy from Scooby-Doo has a visible Adam's apple. These misconceptions highlight how collective memories can be misleading, affecting well-known characters and scenes from popular culture.
