| book description |

All ten episodes of BBC Radio 4â€™s ambitious global series, presented by Neil MacGregor â€˜Insightful, provocative, satisfyingâ€™ Telegraph With the United Kingdom on the brink of potentially momentous change, historian and broadcaster Neil MacGregor embarks on a worldwide voyage to discover how Britain is perceived from abroad. Visiting Germany, Egypt, Nigeria, Canada, India, Singapore, the United States, Spain, Australia and Poland â€“ all countries with significant historical links to the UK â€“ he talks to leading opinion formers to find out how they, as individuals and members of their wider communities, see Britain. His interviewees reveal what they learnt about Britain at school, and how key events and cultural influences, as well as their own personal experiences, have shaped their impressions of the country now. Each has a defining image that symbolises the UK to them: from Shakespeare to Monty Python, the 1966 World Cup, the Suez Crisis, the Financial Times, â€˜99â€™ ice cream and The Crown. Throughout his travels, MacGregor uncovers tensions and frustrations, admiration and affection â€“ along with an underlying sense of hope and a desire to retain close links with Britain as it prepares to reevaluate its relationship with Europe and the world.
