An article entitled 'Private school entry to Oxbridge: how cultural capital counts in the making of elites' by Nicola Ingram and her co-author Rachel Stenhouse is featured on BBC Radio 4's Thinking Allowed in an episode on British Elites.

The article advances an argument for the important role of embodied cultural capital in the interview process at Oxbridge and demonstrates how manner and presentation becomes misrecognised as knowledge and ability to think.
