European Religious Figures

I like to listen to religious speakers on YouTube to help me understand religions; but the problem is 90% or more are from the US or Canada. So when I go looking especially for Christian perspectives, it doesn't even matter if it's Catholic, Orthodox, Anglican, it's almost always a US or Canada based Priest, Bishop etc. These people don't speak to me as a European and they're not covering European issues, but I can't find any European ones with such large followings etc.

Do you know any prominent British Christian etc. speakers? Any that are dubbed in English or have subtitles? Mostly looking for Christian stuff but also open to Jewish etc.

Yes I know about Rowan Williams.

Who are the European version of Bishop Barron, Trent Horn, Father Mark Goring, Father Josiah Trenham, William Lane Craig, Matt Fradd, Michael Knowles etc.

Yes but Friar Andrew looks like he is genealogically descended from Ramses II or maybe Red Beard. That's got to have some value.

Given Ramesses had about 400 kids it's kind of hard not to be one of his offspring :D

I have a favorite. He moved to the US, but grew up in Germany.

Fr. Rowan Williams is a well-respected theologian, former Archbishop of Canterbury and sometimes gives academic speeches on philosophers and theologians. If possible, try finding his 2016 Hulsean Lectures at Cambridge. I especially like his lecture on Calvin's Christology as mirroring that of the Greek Fathers.
