It's said that the British are obsessed with class, but does the traditional hierarchy of ‘working’, ‘middle’ and ‘upper’ class really exist anymore? And does social class even matter in 21st century Britain? The Great British Class Survey aims to find out. Please read about the study and fill in the on-line survey at  http://bbc.co.uk/labuk/experiments/class

The project was launched on Tuesday 25 January 2010 on BBC1's The One Show. The launch can be viewed on YouTube via this link.
