Common Ground is a new YouTube series about finding connection through the lens of culture. Featuring rapper/chef/TV personality Big Zuu, musician and mental health advocate Professor Green, BAFTA-winning comedian Daisy May Cooper and more, we go behind the veil and discover just how similar a lot of people are.
Filmed across London’s creative heart in Shoreditch, the three-part offering—created by Tripadvisor—brings together familiar British names from vastly different worlds for unscripted encounters that are as thought-provoking as they are entertaining. From Michelin-starred kitchens to pottery studios and music hubs, each pairing explores culture through empathy, humour and shared experience, proving that the simplest connections often spark the most meaningful conversations.
Whether it’s a chef and a comedian bonding over humble beginnings, a rapper and a farmer finding common ground in mental health and sustainability, or a motivational speaker and a TV personality celebrating gratitude and difference, the series captures the beauty of understanding across divides.
