British actor Gary Oldman has shown where his true loyalties lie after he let rip in a joke rant against America on a popular television show.

The London-born star, who now lives with his family in Los Angeles, berated Americans for celebrating their separation from England with an annual Thanksgiving meal, which the country will mark tomorrow.

In the two-minute clip, he says: "This year when you consume your Thanksgiving meal consider this; you're hurting our feelings.

"Not only did you flee our homeland to avoid paying taxes you now pay so willingly, you rub our faces in it with a big fat food orgy."

Speaking in an exaggerated posh English accent he goes on to tell Americans to "f*** off" and calls them "a bunch of honey poo poos".

He then decimates a table of food laid out for a Thanksgiving feast in the skit for the Jimmy Kimmel show.

Oldman, 55, who started out on the London theatre scene, is best known in the USA for his portrayal of Commissioner James Gordon in Christopher Nolan's Batman films.
