In my own limited experience with brits I've found that culturally they love creativity but only within conventional constraints. If you try to do something that is really subversive I've gotten this "who do you think you are?!" kind of attitude. They just generally don't share this American sense of "you can be anything you want to be!" Just a contributing factor.

From what I can tell the creative industries here in the UK are not as few and far between nor as obsequious as it might seem. I think it's harder to access and with less momentum, but then that's in comparison to a trundling behemoth shouting "Follow me!!!" at the top of it's voice....
