Are England exchange rates and import prices based on the Bank of England base/interest rate?

Basically, I just wanted to know how and if import prices and/or exchange rates in England have the Bank of England's base rate anywhere in the calculations?

Exchange rates are not calculated from anything. They are based on the price that someone is willing to pay to buy that currency. It's a purely market-driven thing.

Interest rates do have an effect on exchange rates, since high interest rates make a currency more desirable, but it's not based on any kind of formula.
