What are UK summer analyst IB technical interviews like?

Can someone give me a snapshot on what technical interviews are like in the UK for IB Summer analysts positions from a BB and EB perspective. 

Is it true that the interviews are not very technical compared to American IB interviews

Are just the basics asked, and does the difficulty in technical questions vary from candidate to candidate? Also, what is the split of questions like in 1st and 2nd round interviews from firm to firm?
