    Traditional British social divisions of upper, middle and working class seem out of date in the 21st Century, no longer reflecting modern occupations or lifestyles.

    The BBC teamed up with sociologists from leading universities to analyse the modern British class system. They surveyed more than 161,000 people and came up with a new model made up of seven groups. To find out where you fit in use this calculator below.

      This is the wealthiest and most privileged group in the UK. According to the Great British Class Survey results, lots of people in this group:

      Enjoy high cultural activities such as visiting museums and listening to classical music
      Went to private school and elite universities
      Socialise with people who do a wide variety of jobs
      How true !

                Now if only I went to the opera, theatre etc. I could have been Middle.
                it seems to be to do more with who you socialise with. CEO, Teacher, Nurse etc.

                I only put down entertaining at home we only do a few theatre trips a year and they are frequently pantos.
