Strongbow is basically the cider equivalent of mass-produced horse piss
lager. Not all of it is even made from apples. Magners is much the same but
marketed with an Irish angle.

Thatchers, Biddendens and Stowford Press are the ones I usually come across,
and it's all quite drinkable. Thatchers would be the most knife-and-fork of
the lot, but they do some sweet ciders as well.
