So, apart from the bread......
what have the French ever done for us??!!
Perfected the short back and sides?
They taught us how to stick two fingers up to everyone (a l'Agincourt)
Do you mean Azincourt? Can't find an Agincourt on a French map, only Azincourt.

See? I told you about the French letters... in this case it's the z :P

But there is no place called Agincourt Steve
Someone who wrote British history mis-spelled the place name. From that day to this we celebrate the battle of Agincourt, but there is no such place. However, there is an Azincourt and this fits the area where the battle was fought.

There is a place called Agincourt in France; it's near Nancy in Department 54 (North Eastern France - out towards the area of Moselle) but is not the historical place of the battle between the Henry V and the French.
Dave seems to be quite right. is further reference to it incorrectly spelt but the real place is Azincourt (still there today) near the mouth of the Somme.
The reference to sticking two fingers in the air as an offensive gesture comes from this battle. As the English bowmen were too far from the French, in order to taunt them nearer in to bowshot, they stuck two fingers up in the air and waved them about. The index and second fingers are the ones used for pulling the bow and if captured by the French, the bowmen would have these fingers removed to render them incapable of drawing the bow so they did this to show the French that they still were "complete" and ready to do battle. This was seemingly enough to tempt the French in closer to charge. The rest, they say, is history!
