Feel Britannia: Sir Trevor McDonald
SERIES: we ask newsreader Trevor McDonald "What makes you feel emotional about Britain?"
With all the rhetoric and Big Ideas surrounding the general election, Culture Whisper wanted to collect some of the little things that spark emotions about Britain.
In anticipation of May 7, we asked our favourite figures in the arts to tell us what makes Britain feel like home.
Journalist and broadcaster Trevor MacDonald:
"Look no further than the unrivalled London Theatre scene! On any given week London displays the finest in theatrical brilliance and in abundance. It used to be said that for any aspiring actor getting to Hollywood was just about as good as it gets. Now Hollywood's best aspire to appear on the London stage. Add to that the fact that our city is now one of the most cosmopolitan in the world and London glows in its unrivalled mix of modernity and traditional charm."
