Although our countries share a language, entertainment, history and many cultural connections, the realities of living on opposite sides of the Atlantic can be vastly different.Together, they explore how British and American people view one another, the assumptions we make and the differences hidden beneath our similarities. They also consider how each country could look across the Atlantic for examples of a different—and perhaps better—way of living.This is a conversation about comedy, culture, national identity and the importance of remaining curious about people whose everyday experiences may be very different from our own.What do you think the United Kingdom gets right? What could Britain learn from America—and what could America learn from Britain?
