British territory without distinctive characteristics (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bland

'without distinctive characteristics' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'british territory' is the wordplay.
'british' becomes 'b' (abbreviation e.g. in 'BBC').
'territory' becomes 'land' (land is a kind of territory).
'b'+'land'='BLAND'

(Other definitions for bland that I've seen before include "Insipid, vapid" , "Without flavour" , "Flavourless" , "Mild; dull" , "without distinctive characteristics" .)
