Mine is Dr. Strangelove, or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb.
I guess you have to question whether it qualifies as British. It's an adaptation of a British novel, Peter Sellers is it's star, it was filmed in England where Kubrick was also living.

From the station at Colchester
To the cells of Warrington
From the services at Leicester
To the slums of Northampton
We travel over England
And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

Yes trainspotting is possibly the best. The Wicker Man definitely deserves a mention.
Also, being a horror fan, for me 28 Days Later is definitely up there. 28 Weeks Later is pretty much as good too.

Pretty much every film mentioned in this thread is a cracker to be fair.
