Britain's job market, according to BBC journalist Richard Bilton, now sorts people less by ability than by who their parents know. Bilton examines hiring patterns across professional Britain and reports a claim that the country is less socially mobile than at any point since the First World War, with the best jobs increasingly going to graduates from a narrow set of well-connected families. He talks to young jobseekers from low-income backgrounds who describe hitting a wall of unpaid internships, informal networks, and interview panels that reward polish over competence, and sets their accounts against those who got a foot in the door through a parent's contact or an old school tie. The film treats education as the new dividing line, tracking how a degree from the right university has replaced the old routes of apprenticeship and on-the-job promotion. Bilton lets the testimonials carry the argument rather than statistics alone, building a picture of a labor market where merit competes directly with inheritance, and usually loses.
