The Shadow of the Gentleman

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

The gentleman is an iconic figure whose values many would like to revive. And now you can pay to be taught gentlemanly habits as a way to get on in life. Chris Bowlby looks at what the gentleman really stood for, and whether we can reinvent him for a less formal, less inhibited age.
