Comparisons and contrasts between the U.S. and the U.K. were made using excerpts from interviews done by Brian Lamb in London during November 2010 with Stephanie Flanders of the BBC, Lord John Wakeham of the House of Lords, Diane Abbot of the House of Commons, and Matthew Parris of The Times of London. Other video clips were also shown.
