hi, I used to work as a SA in Burberry for a year in London, so from my short experience and training I can tell you that Burberry makes no secret from the fact that most of the items are in fact made in China, but in authorized Burberry factories under strict quality control, at Burberry standards and with the required materials.
nevertheless you have to be careful and make a clear difference between a burberry made in China and a fake made in China.
The only items still made in the UK( WITH SOME PARTS LIKE THE COLLAR STILL Stitched by hand) are the trench coats.
one more thing. Normally the SA would ask you to leave your details when you buy something, and introduce them in the Burberry system. this allows you to track basically any item bought anywhere in the world if needed( based on the name of the customer, if the customer registered his name). Hope this helps.
