Welcome to Not the Queen’s English! In this episode, we talk about the quintessentially British concept of poshness. We cover such essential vocabulary as 'plummy', 'horsey' and 'jolly hockey sticks', and discuss an infamous pop culture moment in which a guest stormed off a panel show during a disagreement about the meaning of the word 'classy'.

For all the things we mention but don’t fully explain, check out the Cheat Sheet for this episode, which you can download from our Patreon page. Patreon supporters also get access to our 35-page PDF accent guide. Cultural guides, including the accent guide, are also available to buy individually from our Ko-fi shop.
