American/Canadian scientists?

Has anyone else in the UK noticed, when watching scientific documentaries made in the UK, there seems to be a disproportionate number of American/Canadian scientists in the UK? Sorry I can't always tell the difference in accents.

    Well there's about five times as many Americans as Britons so the pool of potential sicentists is much larger.  Since Americans and Britons speak the same language there's going to be a lot of easy opportunity for crossover.
