If those areas you've mentioned have at least an average distribution of theists then Doncaster would be quite the opposite (in the youths at least). Just the other day I was walking out my biolgoy lesson when I heard a kid scream "OH MY GOD!" and another taunted him by saying "haha! you believe in god Tongue" to which the first fiercely replied "No I don't!!". That sort of attitude is widespread here.

And I have no experience of Doncaster (or would even want to) but the point I am making is that your point about Doncaster versus the US is (here in this forum) self-evident crap because other Brits agree with Demonaura and all Brits are the same (or at least not so very different).
