    I don't think he's upper class. He went to a secondary modern.

    And Duncan Smith was his father's surname.

    Apart from that, full marks.

      I demand a review!

      Duncan Smith was given his mother's maiden name (Duncan) as a middle name—a fairly conventional practice of the Edwardian period—but his father's name was "Smith", not "Duncan Smith" and, in Second World War RAF records, Duncan Smith himself is always listed as W. G. G. D. Smith, not W.G.G. Duncan Smith. It is not known precisely when he started using his mother's maiden name as part of his surname but he decided to pass the name to his children. Whether this makes the current family surname "Duncan Smith" or still "Smith" is a moot point

        His first name is actually George and it's Iain although it was originally Ian but for some strange reason he added an extra 'i'

          Iain being the Scottish version of Ian; however, I have notice a trend that people have changed their name from Ian to Iain. It reminds me of Mrs Bucket

            Regardless of his name, he's still a **** of the highest magnitude
