taymoore, I think he was talking about when he himself moved to China, not before any Western influence. Also, he was saying that the architecture (when he got there, not before Western influence) was devoid of international influence, not just Western influence.

Not all girls are attentionwhores. There are some great female reporters who don't want to be in the spotlight like Sophie. She's even kinda ignorant and annoying sometimes. Like in the names episode. There's more chemisty between Jeremy and the persons he interviews.
