Doggerland 7000 years ago was a great land-bridge that connected Britain to the Continent, and it was through this land-bridge that the first humans came to Britain. But, starting 6,500 years ago, with the end of the most recent Ice Age, Doggerland started to sink, and by the rise of advanced civilizations 6000 years ago, Doggerland had disappeared.
But what if it hadn't? What if Doggerland was, on average, ~50 meters higher, had it not sank into the North Sea? What if Britain was still connected to the mainland through what we would call Belgium and the Netherlands?

Britain would be much more susceptible to invasion for one, and would be a lot more continental in its nature, perhaps speaking a language that's a lot more like whatever is spoken across the Channel.
But this alters all of human history, including the first migrations of the Neanderthals, so I can't really answer in precise terms.
