PUPILS

at £13,000-a-term Eton are born with silver spoons in their mouths, and need a lackey to polish them. Prince William’s old school requires a deputy butler for College Hall. Duties will include ‘maintaining the vast and valuable collection of college silver’, and stockkeeping in the college wine cellar. No word on what would-be Carsons can expect to earn. Eton’s job ad says: ‘salary to be discussed.’
