Innit?

Does any one know where the peculiar practice in some parts of London of adding a rhetorical question to the end of a statement originates? For example, "I went down the pub, didn't I?"

As an aside, I have a friend from New Zealand who spent her first months in London politely asking "Did you?", every time!

• Didn't I, revs per minute and so I was like... The Fallen 01/09/02
  • I was like "Yeah!" and he went "Really?" R. Berg 01/09/02
    • I was like "Yeah!" and he went "Really?" Jim 01/10/02
