Britain In A Day Teaser #1: The Day Begins

Britain In A Day airs in the UK on Monday 11th June at 9pm on BBC2.

On Saturday 12 November 2011 an eclectic range of British people turned the camera on themselves, capturing the entertaining and mundane, the exciting and unusual, the poignant and the everyday. The result, Britain in a Day tells the fascinating story of the British public in their own words.

Following on from the feature film Life in a Day, this 90-minute film directed by BAFTA winner Morgan Matthews offers an extraordinarily candid look at 21st century life across the UK, crafted from over 750 hours of footage, including 11,526 clips submitted to YouTube. The documentary offers remarkable insight into the lives, loves, fears and hopes of people living in Britain today.

The BBC already made a "britain in a day" after "Life in a Day" turned out to be such a melting pot of depression. Also, why did most of the locations seem to be in London? People tend to forget that Britain is more than just our capital city.

[KrazyZebraz]

Most of this is London when there are 3 other countries to think of ,

Couldn't agree more, this trailer by no means makes it seem like it's a 'deep insight into British culture'. I hope this movie isn't exported for other countries to see, it's better to lie to the world thinking the UK really has James Bond and Harry Potter than letting them know how hostile and shallow British culture really is...

[SamJamRic]

You're either not British, or too sheltered to ever leave your home in London...

Everyone knows outside London is only fields and stonehenge or summing.

If I'm being honest, Life In A Day was a fucking let down and I doubt this will make up for it.
