Pittsburgh. Everyone in the USA thinks that Pittsburgh is 'the pits'. Named after British Prime Minister Pitt, the city is desperate to change its image and is in fact a very nice place. Recently voted
America's most liveable city, it is on the crest of a new wave. There is a state body building championship on and JK meets some of the muscly contestants; goes buggy racing; checks out a truck that can drive itself, and talks to Mr Rogers, the host of a kids' television show for the last 20 years.
JK also meets Def Leppard, one of the most successful British bands in the USA. Film cameraman MIKE RADFORD Film sound SIMON WILSON Film editor NINA TIMPERI
