Monster, it's not normally a plain white sauce. There's normally chicken or sausage in the gravy.

Granted, it's a pretty heavy breakfast. It was originally intended to be a cheap and hearty breakfast for farm workers.

I'm also not sure that scones == (American) biscuit. The scones I've had were pretty dry. A good biscuit is moist.

Speaking of biscuits. I had a drama minor in college and got to see a lot of small amateur productions. One I attended was an English parlor thing complete with the best English accent the students could come up with. The hostess asks the group if they would like a biscuit and hands around a tray of Pillsbury poppin fresh.
