british class system

For those who’ve followed filmmaker Michael Apted’s entire UP Series, it’s a treat to catch up with the subjects’ latest developments in 63 UP, the eighth and likely final episode in the UP Series, Apted refers to the series as an exploration of the British class system, and asks all of his subjects whether they think the original premise for the series — “give me a child at the age of seven and I’ll show you the man” — is true. The now familiar participating women and men give responses that are varied, authentic and provocative.
