I'm very glad it went well for you in the end - maybe you just need an audience before your leet speaker skillz kick in!
And no, if they stayed over especially to ask questions, that was NOT British politeness. Being polite would be, say, throwing in a question during a Q&A session held *within the allotted lecture time*, usually done after an embarrassingly long silence. Staying on after the allotted time to ask questions, however, shows keen enthusiasm. A whole mob of them staying on to ask questions? The Force is strong in you.
