Yeah, it's common in England and Australia. XD
It's like blimey, whoa, or oh gosh. Like, it's something you'd say if you're surprised.

Hm, in the U.S. we say whoa!, oh my gosh, or sometimes AAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!

Crikey mate, that cod is a whopper!

I know a few Americans who are very fond of saying "Oh (my) gosh". XD
Here you'll get blimey and crikey. But, because I study language, I usually just babble a mix of French, German, Spanish, English, and sometimes Japanese.

What else to the British say the Americans don't?

Did you know that if the British won the Revolutionary War that the colonies would have been called the British Domain? And the only reason we won was because of the help we got from the Frech, Dutch, Germans and I think a little help from the Spanish too since they were allied with the French

Depends really, Scotland, England, Wales, & Northern Ireland all differ in language (in certain aspects.) But a lot of people seem to use 'Britain' and 'England' interchangeably, for instance saying 'The Queen of England' rather than 'The Queen of Britain'.
