House of Lords
House of Lords: What's it all about?When you find one thing on YouTube, it's very easy to find other related videos. Here's one I found while looking at the interview that Karmin Tomlinson recommended. It looks good. There are a lot of assumptions that American students will challenge.
It is a 4-minute video, produced the UK Parliament; brief interviews with Lords and person-on-the-street answers to questions about Lords.

Here's another Parliamentary video. It's a 2-minute video titled The Role of an MP. For some reason, it cannot be embedded, but if you click on the title above, you'll get to it.
This video is probably more useful. It's titled, Making Laws: How a law is made. Students familiar with the US version of legislation will be able to note significant differences.
Of course, a good comparative study should provide information about both systems being compared. Here's a link to the classic Schoolhouse Rock video, How a bill becomes a law.
