How Benedict Cumberbatch's family made a fortune from slavery

94. I didn't imply any such thing. But I'll bet there are more upper middle to upper class people who

are successful actors than there are working class people.

For example, your Rupert Everett looks fairly posh to me; albeit he ran away from home and school:

Everett was born in Burnham Deepdale, Norfolk, to Major Anthony Michael Everett (1921–2009), who worked in business and served in the British Army, and wife Sara (née Maclean).[3]

His maternal grandfather, Vice Admiral Sir Hector Charles Donald Maclean, was a nephew of Scottish military man Hector Lachlan Stewart MacLean, who received the Victoria Cross.[4]

His maternal grandmother, Opre Vyvyan, was a descendant of the baronets Vyvyan of Trelowarren and the German Freiherr (Baron) von Schmiedern.

From the age of seven, Everett was educated at Farleigh School, Hampshire and later was educated by Benedictine monks at Ampleforth College, Yorkshire; he left school at 16 and ran away to London to become an actor..

Both schools he attended have posh graduates; he's from a catholic background, that's the main thing out of order.
