People in Class Houses

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

Presented by Gerald Priestland People, jobs and activities are still classified as being working:, middle-, or upper-class and recent evidence suggests that the English are as preoccupied with class distinctions as they ever were. But if the miner and the headmaster both earn the same money, dress in the same way and enjoy the same interests, what are the differences between them? Are we all middle-class now?
Tonight's programme examines the way the class structure is changing and considers the importance of class in our social and political life. Producer MICHAEL GREEN (Manchester)
