The caption said you could be looking at a future Tony Blair or Boris Johnson. Blair didn't go to Eton. David Cameron and Boris Johnson did. Those two together, are more than enough reason for NEVER having an old Etonian as Prime Minister ever again.
Damn, this is the Eton College I read about in Capt. Hook by J. V. Hart when I was young. I thought it was a fictional school but it was real. Wow, very interesting. I wonder if Eton college has those Oppidans and Oppidan Scholars, and OSB name callings like in the book. Are House Masters and House captains like Darling Arthur still a thing? Do the captains still make a formal request to their house masters: A: "House master, we wish permission to birch Roger Davies." B: "And why do you chooose this discipline?" A: "Because he has repeatedly failed to properly warm his master's tea water." Haha, this was one of the funniest conversations I read in the book.
I'm a retired journalist from the Walter Cronkite era and I expected content. This video has lots of beautiful shots, but nothing about the academic and social student life of Eton.
this video was only to let people see what Eton college actually looks like and to provide some basic stuff which was explained in the lyrics ...thanks for the comment Bruce x
Eton doesn’t Instil arrogance; that is a nonsense, it instils huge self confidence in its stead. A shame that British state schools fail in this respect.
@@HazVentures They normally would be but occasionally when the weather is particularly warm they are allowed to wear half change (blazer instead of tailcoat and no waistcoat) or shirt sleeve order which is what you can see.
Love it! I'm born in Eton!!!! My beautiful home town!!!
@@darrenjohnbryant51 excellent ❤️

That's a very negative view. Are you a communist ?
This is really unique to the UK.
Shows one of the best schools in the world. But Brits can only carp about it.
Wrong. The only difference is money and culture. Both are easily acquired through hard work. Class is just a confection.
They all looked very smart in their white shirts & pin stripped trousers. Lots of smiles 😃

Eton mess 😀
I’ve never been to Eaton, always wondered what it’s like. Thanks for this. Place is lovely but sadly it is a man’s world still.
If they allow girls, it would become woke, so it's best not to.😂
ETON ffs not "Eaton"
